Can't give any advice on how to find a group other than these forums. Try posting a LFG (Looking for a Group) post. Regarding etiquette, I'd say everything that applies to the real world applies to the virtual word... or at least, it should! Examples: - Be on time - Be reliable (show up when you commited to a schedule and don't cancel it the last second) - Don't chew your snacks right into the mike, instead keep the mike muted by default until you want to say something - Don't interrupt people, instead wait for a clear pause or your turn or when the GM hands you "the mike" (should apply to real world encounters as well, but especially online it's even worse to interrupt as you can't understand shit then) - Make yourself familiar with the basic mechanics of roll20 or whatever software you're using to spare people the hassle of raising you through "kindergarden"; watch online tutorials and try and err for yourself before joining a group so that you don't become a drag. This doesn't mean you need to be an expert, but you should know how to log-in/-off, how to mute the mike, how to turn on/off the camera, how to roll, how to chat, how to operate tokens, how to navigate the board, how to use character sheets... if you want to really be prepared, look into macros so that you can support the GM a little. - Keep politics and religion out of the out-time talk - don't critisize people for their playing style (that's the GMs job, if at all) - know the basic rules (shouldn't be a problem with D&D in your case, I reckon) - thank the GM for investing time and energy in putting together a game for you and the others (GMs don't get thanked and praised enough for all their effort, I feel at times) Those are my two cents
