I wandered into a game store last week and picked up a copy of the core rule book. This was half-whimsy, half-nostalgia. Definitely got a thrill paging through the book and revisiting the Traveller universe, as I grew up on pulp sci-fi & space opera, and played classic Traveller back in high school (30 years ago now, unfortuantely).
The thing is, while I still do some board gaming with friends but I haven't played any PnP RPGs as an adult, either IRL or on line. Any advice on how to find a decent game to try and join as a rookie? I was figuring there must be on line groups, and Google certainly turns up some RP-focused web sites but I'm feeling a bit out of my depth on which are the best ones, what the expectations would be for players, or how how to spot a decently laid-back, mature group I might work well with.
