[QUOTE="JDragon, post: 1666544, member: 780"] I have played with a variety of groups over the last 18 years. At first it was my friends down the street or at school I could get to play. Soon, met a guy around my age that had posted a notice at the local game store. (I was 15 at the time) This was my first campaign, it lasted our entire freshman year. We became friends due to the game, but have drifted apart due to his move to CO. Later I met people at DunDraCon (San Ramon Ca, Pres Weekend) and joined my first adult gaming group. I was 17 at the time and everyone else was 25 plus, and probably closer to 30. This lasted several years till the DM & his wife moved to the East Coast. (Phillip & Betty, you guys out there somewhere? :cool: ) Some of these people became friends outside of the game as well. The last group I was a part of started much like my first, A local DM was looking for players and saw my post at the local store. I have gamed with people from this group for the last 8 years. People have come and gone, and come back, and we have met others at DDC which now play. I would say for all the groups I've been apart of start as a gaming group, but most have developed into friendships with at least some of the people outside of the game. And now I'm in the process of starting it again, as I have recently moved to the Sacramento area from the Bay Area. [/QUOTE]
