I like playing tabletop RPGs. The interesting thing was that I only got introduced to it by pure chance. My friend (to whom I hadn't talked in a while) was hosting a DnD 4e session which I heard about when talking to his sister (who I hadn't seen in ages) about The Big Bang Theory and how it's taking the piss out of nerd culture. Anyway, I started playing and never looked back. Since then (start of last year), I have played in 3 groups, and have started running 2 Pathfinder groups with friends.

I highly recommend tabletop RPGs to anyone that's considering them. They're like video games where you can choose to do just about anything, rather than the scripted options.

I love the idea of tabletops. I just haven't been able to find any groups, so I just dick off by myself with some various tabletop PDFs and let my mind wander.

Do you have any tips for finding a group?

I just tried to gauge interest in playing with friends. Enough said yes, so I organised stuff. You could probably try your local board game shop, or check out http://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety to see if there's a local Pathfinder game near you.

I also play tabletop games with a group of friends, but we usually play GURPS or Shadowrun. We've been playing for about a year and a half, but the only problem is that our usual GM can't really keep to one campaign for too long.
