I came to roleplaying in the 80s in high school. With interruptions I played since that time, mostly AD&D, but I tried also a lot of other rp systems (e.g. ShadowRun, Traveller, Midgard, Das Schwarze Auge). I cannot say if I spent more time being the game master or being a player - both is fun. When I started to play, especially in D&D, all of us were not really "roleplaying", but eventually, after a long break, I changed my focus to that, started to play DnD5e. But this roleplaying is not an easy thing to do for me: I am still working on me :-)
