These sorts of communities seem to be resources, gateways, etc. to find more intimate communities with which to feel wanted. Maybe the linkshells or Free Companies may provide what you are looking for, but I find it difficult to understand wanting to be validated by so many people on a community site such as this.Â
I can pretty much mirror this mentality. I think this place is great for trying to get yourself out there and finding something that specifically meets your needs/wants as an RPer, but the desire to be wanted by ...everyone on this huge community is not only bizarre, but literally unobtainable.
There are SO many people on this site and active in game. You're not going to get along with everyone. Not everyone is going to like you. There's no way of forcing friendship through just being nice or agreeable.
The best that you can hope for is just continuing to do what you enjoy, put yourself out there and hope that you manage to stumble across people that are up your alley, instead of trying to cater to the lowest common denominator. Like, uh... tossing your line out in The Quicksand, for example.
