[QUOTE="Liquidsabre, post: 1666447, member: 15635"] I welcome all to my game table and as a result have had many different gamers. Some of them I now can call friends of mine and we have been gaming together for almost a year now. Though this has resulted in the occasional aborted game session where we just hang out, but it's not so bad as we play weekly, we can afford an occasional hic-up in the story progress. I try to run one group and play in another, doing one game/week if possible (run or play, not both). As a DM I believe it's important to maintain the player's persepctive for the sake of the game you run, it helps to see a little of what you're players are experiencing in the game you run. This being the case I try to run for my group and play in another group. In my experience playign with the same great group over a long period of time, while awesome if such a group can be found, can result in a stagnation of play-style without new ideas and experiences being brought to the group. So I try to dip into other game groups to play, occasionally porting in a quality player if we lose someone from our core group, not to mention great other-DM ideas I can pick up on occasion and add to my repertoire. On the other hand, a solid game group can also produce a great series of continuous adventures with characters everyone loves to play with and sometimes, if blessed with a creative AND mechanically-inclined DM, new PrCs, campaign specific feats, etc. Great stuff and it's why I try to do both! ;) [/QUOTE]
