It's also tiresome to see this SAME topic repeatedly brought up.
Why does every thread involving an edition have to have a post about "well, those 3e guys think all 4e guys are fanboi's" or the reverse?
Necromancer Games NOT going with current GSL.

I don't know that comments like this help much with the common ground issue.

Btw, 7th grade or so in private school, a buddy named Wayne introduced me to the Basic Set (Moldvay). From then I was hooked. I remember walking into a hobby shop (model cars/trains) a year or so later and seeing a section with something called "AD&D".
My eyes lit up like a christmas tree.
sorry for the slight derail, but someone did ask if most of us were introduced to the hobby by someone else.

Pretty much. I probably introduced the game to a dozen or so as well. And I agree with your premise that most people will be introduced to the game (especially in this day and age) by someone else rather than pick it up themselves.
This is annoying. WotC adventures are $30, and are printed on crap paper, and aren't that good, frankly. I was really, really looking forward to buying more Necro stuff. Heck, I had hoped to buy Paizo stuff, and Green Ronin stuff.
I am certain, with no evidence other than the document and the outcome so far, that WotC wants no one that has a big, legit company to use the GSL. 100% convinced. No doubt in my mind.
I'm saddened, but not surprised, by this announcement.

I played hero quest with a friend and thought it was really exciting. At that time I was around 10, and games like DragonQuest where out on the nes those were alot of fun. I was introduced to d&d via popular culture and games and have been wanting to play for a while. I then started playing 3.5 when a friend dm'ed a game for us on summer break (when i was in collage). he started playing because of friends he knew at collage.
So i started playing because of word of mouth, but i knew about d&d through games and popular culture.

I was not exactly introduced to D&D by anyone. I did see some classmates in 7th grade looking at D&D books during lunch, but they never explained the game to me nor introduced me to it. One day a few months later I saw the red box Basic D&D game at K-Mart or some similar store, and asked my parents to buy it for me. I read the rule book and ran the Bargle adventure for my brothers and cousins. I've been into D&D since then, some twenty-five years.
Oh please. The 4e folks arent choir boys yourself. Insults have run both ways.....
