Went to a venue, and the people there are very friendly.

All the X-wingers I have met have been very friendly, taking the "fly casual" motto seriously, which leads everybody to have a good time.

They're not as bad as Herocliques.

The X-wing communities that I've experienced, (6 cities/4 states; GA, SC, NC, and TN) have been very open and friendly. I would say that there are groups (cliques) of people that are the "elite" players, and they probably have more knowledge of the rules, game play, ect. , but they have been just as open and friendly as the "loveable losers"

I wish there was a flgs close to me but there's nothing really close besides the GW so there is just me and my friends.

ohh, cool team jackets and attitude! I would die laughing! ....accompanied by much tauting of the offenders.
