Re: [DL] The Good, The Dead, and The Supported

Um, White Wolf seems to have that elitest culture. Or at least the ones that I have met. Its funny. I know Clint "I love being E-VILE" Black frequents the same store that I go to but other than that, I can't really find a following in my area. Most of the stores are geared for Miniatures or Clix.

Someone mentioned forming a lynch mob? I'm in.

I can hardly beleive the stuff I'm hearing. the guy rolling his eyes... it's almost like there's an elitist preppy group among gamers! While in highschool when we were all being laughed at by the trendy kids in polo-shirts and sweaters for wearing our Optimus Prime t-shirts, there seems to be a similar group among us gamer geeks!

"Pinnacle? Steve Jackson? *gufaw* Why, that's so unsupported. I only get my gaming needs filled by Wizards of the Coast."

Pardon me while I bash him over the head with my spitoon full of Fate Chips.
