LF group of newbies (5e)

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, or if this kind of post is even allowed, but I didn't see anything prohibiting it in the guidelines, so I figured I'd shoot my shot! I'm a player, not a DM/GM, and I'm looking for 4-6 other newbies to start a party with. I want us all to get to know each other and make sure we mesh well, and once the party is right, I would like us to find a paid DM to run a campaign for us. We would pay anywhere from 5 to 15 dollars apiece per session, depending on how many of us there are and how much the DM charges. Post here or send me a message of you are interested! Here are some specifics I want to be kept in mind: -players should be able to have regular sessions on sundays (I'm in central timezone) -players should, preferably, be over 25 years old (my husband and I are both 32 and want people closer to our age) -players should have played very little or not at all (I have played about 3 sessions total in 2 different campaigns and my husband has played 1) but more experienced people will be considered if you can tell me why you're interested in being in a group of newbies -players should be LGBT friendly -players should be okay with voice chat over discord (no video for sessions) -players should be prepared to chat and be social with the rest of the party, leading up to party completion at the very least, so we can know whether we get along and work well together If you are interested, reply here or send me a message with some info about yourself (name/handle, age, experience, timezone, anything else you'd like to include). If I think we would be a good fit I will invite you to the discord I have set up so we can get to know each other better.
Hey how’s it going? im James 39, completely brand new to table top games but I enjoy playing them in video game format like baldurs gate. Sundays are the perfect day for me to play for a couple hours I'm in central time zone as well. I have two kids and a wife so obviously things will come up but I’m pretty easy going and able to work around stuff. I've been dealing with a a lot of social anxiety and just trying to get out there more. So I feel like a group of new people coming together and not taking things to serious would be perfect. I have some idea of how I’d like to play but of course all notes and recommendations are welcomed. Hopefully I answered everything and look forward to hearing from you all. I'm sure I missed something you asked but happy to answer any questions. Happy gaming!
Nice to meet you James! I sent you a link to the discord
still looking for players
Ahhoyyy Crow! Sorry to infiltrate player thread, I am a DM and love running a starter campaign for new players. I use tools and maps that make it simple for new players to manage their characters. For me player experience comes first, so I encourage group dynamic and fun. I'd love to run a game for you and help find additional players if you need. Starter Campaign: Lost Mine of Phandelver ( with additional content and a mini-post-campaign ) Duration: Every other week can take 4-6 months at 2 1/2  hour sessions (I am open to most game night arrangements) Character Management: D&D Beyond ( access to official 5e content thru my DM account) Platform: Roll20 for playing / Discord for audio / Plus a messaging channel for updates&notifications DM Fees: $20 total per month ( total, not per player) to cover DM tool subscriptions
