Welcome!
Don't sell the old school contingent short. I play a lot of Traveller, myself, but have friends here who play old school D&D, Labyrinth Lord, The Black Hack, and others.
But the system isn't the important thing: it's what you do with a system that matters. Build the right kind of story line and you'll find players willing to play.
If you want to play, you will almost certainly find a game that interests you here. Some places to look at:
- Wanted - Players: this is where GMs advertise for players for games they already run.
- Wanted - GMs: conversely, players advertise here for a GM to run a game they want to play.
- Game Proposals, Input & Advice: prospective GMs float proposals here to gauge interest before doing the work of game creation. It also serves for those who want advice on aspects of running a game.
There are other places, but these three are the basic places to find a game or a group.
If you have questions, jot back. Lots of folks here like helping folks, and will likely help you, too.
