My apologies if this question has been asked one thousand times,

You make new friends through the game itself and how it draws people together; simple, right?

Now the bigger problem is what to do when you develop a love of the game but slowly realize the hobby's full of THAT GUYs you don't want to waste your precious time on.

Get friends.

Go to LGS (local game store) if you have one and see what the community is like, maybe play some intro games, and get some people to play with.

If not, try Roll20 and find a game to play.

You go and make some friends. Its not so hard.

Talk to your co-workers at lunchtime once in a while. Join a church. Volunteer. Take a karate class. There are lots of ways to make friends.

Anon, you'd be surprised how deeply the "satanic panic" has soaked into many churches - it's way less but I still hear about D&D being Satanic from time to time.

man oh man is this true

Find a store where they play /tg/ games. Ask to be introduced to the game and play with the people there. Make friends in the process.

Read the rulebook.
Make character.
Argue pointlessly in relevant thread.

You should realize that christians use word "satanic" for everything bad. They are not against TTRPG. They just don't like dnd like any other reasonable adults.

Do you have online friends? Would you consider online buddies your friends if you had them?

It at least one is yes, play RPGs online.

Gamefinder.

I will be your friend, anon.

Game finder thread and Roll20 randoms are ok but sometimes super autistic

>>46740985
Look up local shops, go in and find the one where people are playing. When you watch the games, some people will strike up a conversation with you and you ask them to tell you about the game they're playing. BOOM- /tg/ and friends.

Grab /tg/ by the shoulders and kiss us real hard, then toss us onto the bed with *pomf* and then start arguing with us about what the surface gravity of the sun is.

How do you avoid that guy? What kind of personality should you put on too?
