New players... some dont seem to grasp the old school vibe

[Keps]

New school players, I agree, see the game differently. Whether its because of MMOs or the multitude of available systems, or how new systems seem to try and mash together role-playing with board games with video games. But hope is not lost. I've been playing more in the last 2 years than DMing, try it. It's frustrating going home thinking how differently you would have run the session that night or every night. Seeing how the interests vary between each player though helped me run a game eventually that had everyone(including the new kids)wanting more. So find that happy medium, it exists.

The only people i really enjoy playing with are a bunch of stoners and metalheads who arent the typical modern gamers at all xD

Man, the demographic has shifted.

I'm very fortunate to live in an area with a vibrant old school gaming community, where I don't have to waste my time trying to change these types of peoples minds or attitudes

I'm glad that you changed my mind. Hehe.
