[QUOTE="Always_a_DM, post: 94667, member: 2961"] Back in my shadowrun days I had two instances of people outside the gaming group overhear our conversations. The first time, we were at the supermarket getting some food for the game that night and one of the other players was recapping what his character got up to the week before. Just as we got up to the register, the girl behind the checkout would have heard.. Me: "So what did you do after you hacked into the traffic grid ?" Friend: "I grabbed some data and sold it for three and a half thousand." Me: "Neat." It was then that we noticed that we could no longer hear the sound of items being scanned through the checkout. She was staring at us with her mouth open. As we turned to look at the checkout girl she quickly turned back to scanning items and would not make eye contact with us. The second time was when I was walking down the street with a friend and we were trying to decide what guns to buy for our Street Sam characters. I got a strange look from a passerby when I said "But if you get the sniper rifle now, like I did, you don't have to pay the street index markup". I don't really have anything else to add. [/QUOTE]
