And to be frank (hi, Frank), I wouldn't expect it to be any different. A long
running game with a hard core of dedicated and experienced players is likely
to be a game with an elitist sub culture. Let me add, right away, that this
is a generalisation and such clearly cannot be ascribed to all, but it is
reassuring to read that many recognise this. And yes, I am a realist who
accepts that such is the norm.
My reasons for playing the game are my own, as are each end every player's.
We each enjoy the game for differing reasons. And, hopefully, we respect the
alternative view. What irks me somewhat is that some clearly wish to impose
their views upon what makes a good game and a good player upon others. Me,
frankly, it just winds me up. Vive la difference! Live and let live!
