Something I'll be getting for PC sadly enough.

Can you join more than one group?

I have total allegiance to my former/current Marine gaming group the USMC Gamers. Especially so since we're a incorporated non-profit vets group and I'm a board member lol.

Not too many sadly.

I've met or convinced a few here and there but most guys I know are video gamers. A smaller few play boardgames like 40k, etc. And fewer still actually RPG. Bring up this and other sites (like our Gamer organization) all the time and usually get "Well I'm not *that* into it."

Apparently RP by forum is scary for the RPGers... Which I don't get... Way easier to "get into character" you know?

Video games are now socially acceptable, so it's okay to play video games. Although the 40k players have no leg to stand on when it comes to geekiness. I happen to be one myself.

The RPGs still have a social stigma to them, hailing from the great war upon them done by a few fringe elements of the Christian Church (claiming D&D players to be Satan worshippers). Which is why I prefer the company of my fellow "heretics", like you guys!

But I find it funny that Vin Diesel still plays D&D. Yeah, try telling that guy that what he's doing is not "socially acceptable to the majority". ;D

It's a thing within the game, where you can have friends join a battlefield platoon. It's like a clan.

I would be down for this, I had put off buying the game because I would have no squad mates, but this gets me psyched. When would we play/practice?

Seeing as most of us have lives (school, jobs, sports riots ;D ), it's basically to keep track of each other. And if we're on at the same time, stomp newbs together.
