>>96479225Leave the group chat and don't associate with them then.
>>96479225At least your FLGS has rpg players and serves as something besides a Magic/Pokemon/YGO dealer.
>>96479225>Obnoxiosuly posts about how WoD is better than 5e, never offers to run a gameBased
>>96479404it's a bald fat dude in his 40's tho
>>96479225>>No one is making calls for tables, but people share session anecdotes publicly>Hey, when do you guys play? I'd love to join>>Obnoxiosuly posts about how WoD is better than 5e, never offers to run a game>Hey, that sounds awesome. When are you running your next game? I'd love to joinDo zoomers really just wait for things to fall into their laps?
>>96479438They also complain about boobs in anime.
>everyone is just on their phones all the time when not rolling dice.>wow the DM's story is so hard to keep track of!
>>96479438Showing agency for the self is toxic and problematic. You will now be socially castrated on approved social media platforms as an acceptable target.
>>96479438>>Hey, when do you guys play? I'd love to joinThere are also quite a few beggars trying to be as pitiful as possible to get into a table. I'm waiting for either someone to make a call and see them fail/succeed, or being there for long enough to get a general idea of how they roll. If you try over and over again while failing to get players you start looking like a creep that people avoid for some reasson. I'm sorry social cues are hard to follow for you or something.>playing VtM with strangersyou either never played VtM or you're a huge creep that shouldn't be allowed near teens
>>96479438imagine being this needy and desperate LOL
>>96479571>Gen Z is having sex at lower rates than millennials, with studies showing a significant drop in sexual activity and increased rates of virginity compared to previous generations, including millennials.Have sex zoomie
>>96479624lol desperate loser
>>96479225>They are told to read the PHB>They offer tips on how to read the PHBBlind leading the blind. This has been a problem for a long time with 5e; it doesn't fucking teach players how to play or even what play looks like. It dedicates a ton of space to what combat abilities, about 2 pages to skill checks, and then just expects the DM to do the rest of the work, assuming they've read the DMG, which seemingly no one does.
>>96479753I run open tables on discord every week, I have at least half a dozen absolute newfags to ttrpgs every month. I'm pretty sure I can introduce someone to the hobby faster and easier than the PHB.
>>96479646You're a fun guy
>>96479225Nice. I just embarrassraped the co-owner of my flgs in front of all his tranny nutriders by telling him not only could he not join my game but that the group will no longer be playing in his store. Needless to say he will try to find a reason to ban me now, but it won’t stop me from walking in, browsing for 30min, and not purchasing anything as per my usual habit
>>96479986this you?
I just checked for the day.>shilling some random event>shilling 3d printed slop>they added whasapp's AI to roll dice for them in the chat just because
>>96479225Trying to find games online is hell, but it's a hell of the playoid's own making. If you ran games yourself you'd never have trouble playing games.
>>96480381I want to run a game, this group is one way to find players when you don't know anyone
>>96479438This sounds like begging.
>>96479986based if true
>>96479986Why can't he join your game?>tranny nutridersWhat the fuck does this mean?
>>96479438Christ I can smell the desperation
>>96479438>Hey, when do you guys play? I'd love to joinI'd reply with "hey fag, if you're that desperate to play, there's always adventurer's league!" Then me and my group would laugh at you and keep playing without someone who has to BEG to play games.
>>96480417>>96480518>>96480527What are you retards on about? OP obviously wants to play and is bummed about "missing out," though he also seems to despise themIf you're so socially inept/pessimistic that you see a simple inquiry about potentially joining the group as desperate then you have a lot of work to do on yourself, as there's obviously something deeper going on
>>96480584Silence, beggar.
>>96480584>and is bummed about "missing out,did chatgpt interpret that for you?did you grasp that from>I hate them so much.
>>96480612You wouldn't note that they're not making a call for tables if you didn't have some interest in joining
>>96479225Honestly most content revolving around "campaign stories" is aboslute fucking garbage> "Look how waaaaaacky and zaaaaany and heckin' cool our party is"I don't fucking care, your story is only funny to you because you were there. > "OMG Did you notice that [insert here stupid ass oversimplification literally designed to make something that makes perfect sense in context sound wacky]" > [Insert Whedonesque cringe dialogue]> [Insert le rool of cool dumbass exploit the DM obviously only allowed because they didn't have the balls to say no]In case you cant tell I absolutely fucking hate the retards that make up the 5e community
>>96480584I'm not the one begging for games, keep the advice to yourself loser
>>96480516You can’t join my game because you enable trannyism and you worship criminal niggers, bud.
>>96480708>Having a board game conversation unrelated to /pol/fag shit>Be /pol/fag whose existence revolves around thinking about bbcBack to your containment board, retard

>>96479929You absolutely can and most RPGs are intentionally very easy to learn, but I feel like it's more of a bug than a feature that D&D neglects effectively teaching how RPGs actually work because veteran players will probably handhold them through it anyways, so why waste the pages teaching anything?
>>96480938But they already waste a shit ton of pages! 300 pages is an absolute waste. WHFRPG is more or less as long and it includes setting lore, narrative health effects, crit tables, hit location, way more variety of shit you might want to buy at some point, classes. 5e's PHB is an absolute scam.And probably in the way of wasting more paper the end result is that new players think they must be missing stuff because it's a huge book and it couldn't be as easy as rolling 1d20, adding what the class pages say and comparing it to a target number.
>>96480938You're massively overestimating people, veterans have to handhold them through it; reading is a gigantically difficult task for most people.
>>96480938>so why waste the pages teaching anything?Hold-over from the 70-90's when anything that didn't was considered a unofficial splatbook.
>>96479427Two kind of people play tabletop games, bald fat dudes in their 40s and 20something gender creatures who got into it from Critical Role. I know who I'd. Rather play with.
>>96480516it means you are virtue signaling protecting imaginary “trans kids” from mean bullies that you also made up in your head because you have no legitimate life experience beyond the consumption of fiction. In reality you get scared by even the feeblest lankiest of pavement apes
