[QUOTE="Grogg of the North, post: 6242561, member: 6682960"] So while I'm enjoying my break from DMing, I'm starting to get the itch to run again. And while the remains of my old group gets together on roll20, I really do miss the more social aspects of gaming. While I wouldn't mind trying to recruit some new players, I've had a lot of bad luck in the past. (Clashing personalities, different views on playing, etc.) What I'm wondering is if anyone here runs a "Pre-game Interview" to help screen out players that may be a problem. I've seen a lot of blogs that offer potential questions and ideas on where to meet but none of them have had any advice on how to not turn it into a job interview. Also, despite often being behind the DM screen, I really don't like conflict. If that makes any sense. What advice can you share with me, oh great denizens of enworld? [/QUOTE]
