Hi, Honestly, I'm surprised that anyone still plays D&D. It is an almost extinct pastime, here in Texas. (People still game. It's just that the 'new generation' prefers 'Magic the Gathering'/cardgames.) I'd be ... Read More

I know it has been some time since I added to this thread, and interest in the topic may be gone. But, the following book recently came to my attention... I felt it might be helpful/relevant to anyone still interested in the topic. The book is: ... Read More


Dan Hauer scandal by QuidProQuo

I just want to chime in here. (As I am an American, who has always wanted to travel southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam and China, but have always been unable to afford to.) Lately, I have grown exponentially 'tired' of the general attitude ... Read More

It sounds to me like, the actual problem you are discussing is simply 'shyness'. Not 'wanting' to interact with others is NOT a problem. But, having an 'inability' to interact with them definitely CAN be. Most people are shy, ... Read More
