Hi I’m a 50+ newbie to D&D so to clarify I played D&D back in the 80’s but so much has changed since then I need to start over and learn the game again even though I understand the core mechanics for the most part. I would like to find an ongoing campaign or even a one shot that will accept new players and have the patience to help teach an old dog new tricks. I would prefer an older group but I’m open to anything. I’m retired so I have time to play. I usual roll a rogue (thief) type ranger. I have a character sheet on dnd beyond. 
thank you in advance. Look forward to meeting new friends and getting some miles on my character. 

Greetings KaptKrash,

I read your post and think that we may have a lot in common, I, too, started playing D&D in the 1980’s and started playing D&D 5th Edition this year. 

I am looking for players to fill vacancies left by players who dropped out. 

I like the fact that you have some free time….it might match my weird work hours and availability. I also enjoy helping new players learn the ropes. 

What is your time zone? Do you use Discord? 

Hi thank you for the reply! I’m in the EST zone but I’m retired and anytime works. I do have discord. KaptKrash is my handle. 
like I said I understand the basics just need to learn the stuff I’m a little unsure about. I love playing RPG video games especially BG3. Love to chat with you. Thank you again. 

Good. I will send you a friend request.

I'm in the same age range, started playing in the 80's too. However, I've been playing 5e for almost 5 years now. I just finished up with a long term campaign and I'm looking to join another one. I'm floater_dnd on discord.

Birds of a feather.....Pretty much exact same situation. Would love to find a low-level starter campaign. I'm Finnatae on Discord as well. I have a couple fighters created using the 2024 free rules on D&D Beyond.

Hi, I sent you a friend request on discord. I would also send this guy Cheez_Weezle a message he starting a game tomorrow with me and two others might be worth a shot. 

Played AD&D a lot in HS back in early 80s and haven't played since, you know, back when I had hair. Thought about getting back into it but I get enough of kids in their early 20s at home and hanging out at a game shop is not really my vibe and seems a bit creepy to me, so I found this and thought I might find some like minded adventurers. Just started rolling up a Ranger here for what it's worth, but I don't have any mileage on it so I guess Id be open to other classes. I have a Discord account but not sure Ive really discorded, is that a word? Im in EST but still working so would likely be looking for something on weekends I think. 

Hey all, I'm in the same age range and situation. Looking for a group (and DM) who'd like to start at level 1 and work through a campaign on a regular basis. I'm east coast US and work during weekdays so I'm mostly available evenings or weekends. Since I haven't played in years (decades, yikes) I'd prefer to  to play one of the top-tier premade modules rather than homebrew content at this point. I'm xarvet_ on discord
