Mature social VR Community (Meta) Open.

[Madeddie]

Howdy,

We are in process of setting up a small mature Meta social community (initially it will be limited to 20 people)

I'm in my early 50's a bit of a gaming pioneer going back to the 8bit era and the majority of us are in our 40's
I was a big fan of Barrys world if anyone remember that?

We are looking for simlar minded people, easy going no drama queens , like to have a laugh and giggle but most of all social gamers at heart.

Aiming to have a fairly well managed community platform, events , competitions and leader boards , movie nights etc,
Partispate when you want to or be more involved in helping to host or organise events.

Focus will be a wide selection of games from Fishing , board games , pub and sports games and even some dungeon crawling thrown in for good measure.
Social gathering will be 2 - 3 times a week to begin with starting at 8:30pm (UK) up until late hours.


If anyone is interested shoot me a meta invite Edguy1
The events app and leaderboard will be going live shortly.
any questions or suggestions just let me know.

Cheers
Maddeddie.

You appear to have missed that the OP is looking for people that are mature...

 

[Unseul]

Was going to say the same thing! We're not welcome!

 

[LostCorpse]

they're a roudy Pofessional bunch but a good lauf & freindly and have some regual play days. would recomened them on trusted reviews..

be good if the 2 groups can meet up / join / mix and match days ect.
this could actually wok for some of the team vs games if there are two groups to play against each other or swap between.

i think the only comment is they are not exclusively to Oculas and a mix of PC and standalone.

Surely a few bots and some local dimwits will only add to the ambience, specifically the having a laugh and a giggle. Sure, they are drama queens, but they do give you something to laugh at!!

theres a reason Rigga is called BigRigga
tbh i think most of the current group are around the same age.
theres not any screaming 10yr olds, just screaming bolding 40 year olds complaining about aches and pains.

erm, i thought we were

except @melmac of course

seriously though, Monday nights is the "main" night when most of us can get online together, but other nights are available

All you need to do is post the social VR thread and come join us

Monday 8pm start for some walkabout mini golf , depending on numbers, if few numbers, we'll do other activities like Rec Room shooters etc and other games like After The Fall, Breachers, AmongUs etc etc

40?! I'm a little past that. Actually quite a bit past that!

 

[Unseul]

I'm not 40 yet! Still got months!

You may have months, but what about your own hair and teeth?

like fine wiskey aged well

I'm not 40 yet! Still got months!

we're all young at heart dont worry, its the soul that matters, the soul of a harden gamer

 

[Ravenger]

I've been video gaming since the days of Pong. I'll be video gaming for as long as I'm able.

 

[Unseul]

Most my teeth, and enough hair for all of us!

True, but we're talking about what's on your head...


(I think we've now adequately demonstrated why we aren't allowed to join the mature group).

 

[melmac]

See this is the exact problem I have in the Hangout Crew. It's like trying to look after kids on a sugar high!! I fight a losing battle for a mature, sensible gaming session every time the hangout crew meet.

My first post in this thread wasn't pointing out to Madeddie where to look for a mature VR gamers, it was actually a warning to stay away!!

As Mr Nadgers just pointed out in the last post, we aren't mature.

I am old, if this is still a thing.

Username is SPGSPG

(apparently not grown up though)

 

[Ravenger]

I am technically 'old' or at least middle aged. Been playing videogames since the days of pong, arcade games and the Atari VCS.

I'm happy to play with anyone provided we have a laugh and there's no toxicity. Note: banter, jokes and mate-ish mockery are not toxicity!
