Good luck. I don't think that attitude helps any, though.
Edit: I'll elaborate because I'm not sure if you know how others (myself, at least) might read this.
First, this part:
Quote:I'm not trying to be rude or disrespectful but I just can't handle this.
worries me. Your other post mentioned you stressing out repeatedly over not being able to find roleplay, and this doesn't make me worry for your character, it makes me worry for you. Your penchant for not returning to address comments or threads is also worrying, but it makes you look like you're not actually interested in anything anyone might have to say. It closes a dialogue, it ends discussion, and if it ends with you closing the door in people's faces, they become unlikely to continue knocking.
Quote: I know what this site is for and finally find myself understanding now. I've been doing this the wrong way.
I'm not sure I follow you here. What is this site for, then? Do you think it's all "scheduling playdates?" People in this very thread gave you permission to contact them looking for roleplay in game - is that too much onus for you? If you never want to be the person to reach out, that's fine, but you have to accept the consequences for waiting for everyone else to engage you. The reason things might seem cliqueish is because you're waiting for someone to draw you in entirely, as opposed to breaking the ice yourself.
Quote:If anyone ever sees Nara'to walking around feel free to bump into him randomly. I won't be scheduling play dates, I'll be seeking random RP.
Finally, I will be one of the few people to tell you this to your face: You are one of ten thousand solitary miqo'te men looking for connections. If you don't seek them out yourself - and I don't mean emoting to yourself in a bar, or making yourself "available" and waiting for someone else - you will forever be overlooked. There are people meeting your stereotype coming to the game each and every day, and if you don't stand out, you will not stand out.
On the off-chance you do come back and read this, I apologize for being mean to you, but your tone and implied intent worry me and I don't want you to believe that we're the ones doing all of the ostracizing here.
