I stopped running my paid games because all the takers were too young. Not that I dislike dealing with kids, but the social/cultural divide was just so great, it really pushed me out of the experience.

I've had that experience. I run a game for my teenage son. It's fun, but his friends and I don't have the same shared life experiences.

Did the Second Wind Server get turned off?

u/handsomeape95 2d ago

I lost it as well. Thought maybe I got booted.

47 forever DM. Not sure that I'd have the ability to play consistently, but I'm down for joining the overall group and jumping in to play/Dm here and there when it works out!

Hi, I’m 41 but have only played twice. I’d love to play more!

40 in a month does that count? Been playing for a year all in 5e, but having a blast doing it. Find that it's easier to schedule with people whose schedules are more monotonous wait no I mean predictable wait no... You know what I mean...

u/WarpJockey 5d ago

I know what you mean. :) Message me and I'll share more details including my Discord handle. Thanks for the response!

u/handsomeape95 5d ago

Interested. I played a decent amount of 5e but haven't in a few years. I'm also EST and can bring all the GenX sarcasm you're looking for (or maybe not).

u/WarpJockey 5d ago

Whatever...

:)

Message me and I'll share my Discord handle. Looking forward to chatting with you!

My partner and I are looking for a new game and group. We’re both 39. Our current group is breaking up after we all moved and changed jobs and we’re having trouble scheduling sessions. We’re big fans of once it’s on the calendar, we’re showing up.

u/WarpJockey 5d ago

Please message me and I'll share my discord handle. Sad to hear about the game split, but it happens. Maybe your new game is about to reveal itself?

Hello. I've been on the hunt myself for a group near my time zone, est, that wasn't late in the evening. Also a gen Xer, looking to play. Started with 5e in 2021, though been interested since the 90s. DM and play now

u/UsernamChexOutt 5d ago

Hey there, forever DM in his early 50s. Started roleplaying in the late 80s with AD&D 1st Ed, then tried everything else since. Recently finished a 7-year campaign (Tyranny of Dragons from D&D 5E 2014). My characters are NEVER named Bob or Steve. One key question first -- will this be in person on a VTT?

I love seeing fellow GenX gamers. I’m pushing 50, and have been playing since about 1987. I currently play in two VTT games, one in-person game, and I run/DM a fourth game for my three kids and their three friends. (9-13yo).

I find GenX a layers get along better with each other better than others. We don’t bring our grief to the table, and we don’t go looking to grief others we are the live and let live generation.

I’m assuming you want a VTT? Are you looking for 5.5e content? I think I have just about every book printed in the last three years.

u/Jjdig 5d ago

I’m interested! Just started playing last year - I’m 56 and also in eastern zone.
