[QUOTE="pogre, post: 2755317, member: 6588"] It does take patience, and another problem is those groups that do meet once a week with 30-somethings and 40-somethings with a life tend to be fairly insular with little contact with the outside gaming world. My group ranges in age from early 30's (one guy might be late 20s) to 43 or so. Many of us are married and a few of us have kids. It took me a while to get this group - I went through a dry spell of about a year plus when my last group disintegrated when folks moved away. A few years ago I formed a group with non-gamers at a bar I used to hang out at - so you never know where you will find a group. If you have any friends who try WoW or are into other strategy games you might approach them first. Conventions are another good spot to find folks. My last few gamers have come via ENWorld, but for the internet to work you have to be strong enough to say "no thanks" sometimes too. Good luck man! I wish you were in central Illinois - sounds like you would fit right into our group. [/QUOTE]
