Hello all,
I wanted to discuss something that I feel is an interesting point that needs to be mentioned regarding the community that participates in this hobby.
Recently after responding to a typically disparaging comment of the community by another poster, it occurred to me that the people I game and hobby with are a collection of both diverse and extremely highly qualified people. These people aren't the anti-social basement players that you might think, they come from a wide variety of jobs and backgrounds.
My regular gaming mates include 5 chemists, an investment banker, a chemical engineer, a mechanical engineer, two biologists, a lawyer, a nurse and 2 people in post production television.
This is by no means the extent of people I game with, merely the people whose careers I know a bit about.
So what about you, share with us (without giving away personal information of course) WHO makes up YOUR gaming community?
