[QUOTE="shadzar, post: 5442012, member: 6667746"] Didn't say you did, but essentially that is what you are doing is lying to yourself about the game when you "suck it up and play it". That will often show and might not be something to make the group accepting of you to, as the other poster suggested, convert them to a game of your liking. Also seems like more of an attack even if done with the utmost courtesy. Sitting in a game that people are all having fun in just to try to convert them to another game. Even your edit seems like a bully or force tactic even when using it on yourself. "learn to like the game", but I have discussed that in another thread in regard to "working to make the consumer to like the changes". It is just not something I would suggest. Better for all to be happy then one unhappy person that will lower the happiness or enjoyment level of the game for all. Speaking of "networks", if finding a game this day and age with all the "networking" done such as this forming having a "looking for players" section, and the multitude of websites, it still seems a problem exists since the size of ones network now is MUCH larger than those they can initially find in person. So if there is no game in your area that you like, you are just in a bad area, or maybe there is people, but not the time. Either way joining in a game out of desperation, will likely resolve less than good results for most people either the new member, or the group they are joining. [/QUOTE]
