Unfriendliness

[Gadwen]

This reminds me of WoW players, just hang around people and don't say anything hoping they throw you an invite or accept yours. I find it annoying honestly, even if I have an open spot I won't invite the guy attacking our mobs or buffing and healing without saying anything.

I think the new LFG meta is to run around in circles around the mob you're killing, maybe turn on auto attack and help people, with your tag on obviously.

Take it to the next level if you're a LFG monk, keep feigning death in front of them.

People do that in CoM all the time.

I was feigning a lot today in CoM while LFG, but that's because I've never been there before and was scouting the place out [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Personally it's a huge pet peeve of mine when people take the passive aggressive approach of just standing next to your group and attacking mobs hoping for an invite.

I mean, fuck, can you not just say, "Hey what's up guys, any room for a LEVEL CLASS?"

If your fear of rejection is so high that you cannot ask directly for a group in a 15 year old elf simulator then you have bigger problems in life than having to solo for XP.

Not wanting to group doesn't mean unfriendly.
Not being social does not mean antisocial.
MMOs are just as much individualistic as not.

So I guess we should stay locked up tight in the basement and ignore our kids.

got it.

if you have kids, you've given up your life and it's about them. If they aren't old enough to do shit on their own then your priority is to them, not a video game. Solo or don't play/slow down a group. If it's once every couple of hours that's fine though. But ya gotta get your priorities straightened out.

Side note: increasingly more, people are becoming retarded with this game when it comes to joining groups.

This - when I read the OP my first thought was "One word - WoW!" Perhaps it's all modern MMOS but I was shocked when I (briefly!) played WoW and no one talked in group, or while soloing/questing. People would walk up to your camp if you were waiting on a pop, not say a word even if I said "Hey, how ya doing?" KS your mob, then run off.

IMHO there's a large contingent of people on this game who learned their social skills on modern MMOs and fucking suck at making relationships on this game. Whereas I came up from MOOs where everything was social and RP. These people need a remedial course in online socialization: try http://www.dragonsfiremoo.com/
