When I try to make friends in real life... I just end up scaring people away for some reason... D:
I know and agree with everyone here. I am just surprised because some folks I have even rp'd with tend to just stop saying hello or anything....it's just odd. This is my first MMO....first time I have ever really dealt with folks online. But it is HUGELY discouraging. Causes me to stick around my little tiny FC house a lot.
Important thing to consider: Rather than them actively ignoring you, you might've just fallen off the radar, potentially unnoticed. There isn't a malicious intent when these things happen, but it can certainly feel like being ignored. I know I turn off nearly all the in-game messages for just about everything, so I hardly receive a notification in-game unless I'm being invited to a party or got a moogle mail.
But this is the internet, and those personal connections and hints you'd normally get IRL when a person you know is around aren't really there. Greeting in a linkshell or FC with people who are active is about the only thing I could really recommend for such things.
