The server time has never made any sense whatsoever. Ignore it. This is an NA/EU server, hosted in Montreal. I, like you, can't be up late and haven't had a shortage of RP yet. I think your best bet would be to join an Intermission LS and start stopping by places listed in this sticky! I very frequently see RP going on in the adventurer guilds in the evenings as well.

I have made 2 attempts to show up at the Adventuring Guilds during the times specified. The first time all i found were naked men posing on the tables, not my bag. The second time, yesterday, i posted toward a few people that were rping for about an hour, but no one acknowledged. I wasn't about to whisper, i had that happen everyday for weeks in GW2, and found whispering only starts a fight.

Yeah, my bad. The "alerts" only alerted me to the post on the thread i made. I guess it isn't set up to alert me of new posts on threads i have posted on, but didn't start myself. Thank you.

The trolls are just as bad on A Realm Reborn, as they are on WoW. Don't you people have lives? I have to delete my favorite character now, because people choose to harrass me endlessly, and impede my Rp Progression. This is frustrating. This is the kind of bull that makes me want to just quit on Rp in MMO's all together.

There are going to be trolls no matter what you do in the game. Deleting a character won't fix anything. I simply add them to black list. You should also consider posting your characters name so we can find you in game ^^

All my characters names were on my profile, up till now. Since i deleted. If it was just one person, i wouldn't have deleted. But it was an entire linkshell being a-holes. I was going to deal with that many people trying to ruin it for me. All my characters names have been on my profile since i signed up in September, but no one ever contacts me. So i figured no one wanted to bother. Hundreds of people read this post, not receiving a single message/add; is depressing. Every time i join an FC or LS, it always ends up the same.

The truth is, you really have to put yourself out there if you want people to add you as a friend/come RP with you.  Go RP in a tavern.  Actually, I could swear I contacted you and gave you a list of RP hangouts I knew of.  I could be wrong.  I have a (Deleted) on my flist that was a fairly recent addition.

I don't really know what you're after.  People generally don't go to you begging for your participation.  If you want RP - or contacts - you're going to have to put yourself out there.  And you're going to need to understand that yes, there are trolls.  And yes, they are assholes.  And you can report them - and Square DOES do stuff about people who are verbally abusive.  And you can Blacklist them - and yes, you SHOULD.  And the excuse, "It was an entire Linkshell" doesn't really fly.  There are thousands of Linkshells on this server, and thousands of players.  So one group of 10ish people were being dicks.  That's like, a drop in the bucket.  This is a big server.  You're going to have trolls.

Gonna have to back up Lia on this.  Most people are going to assume that you aren't an RPer and if you do RP openly some people might not approach you because they don't want to interfere with your storyline.  If you're trying to avoid trolls or just are unsure of who to approach you could always look at the upcoming events, or take a look at the FC/LS list here on the site and just poke some of the members on occasion.

You never know when someone might just "throw you at an officer" of a Free Company and be like "Talk to this person".

That never happens.

Ever.

The truth is that RP happens in the game and you have to be there to find it. I don't really know many (any) people who scan people's profiles looking for characters to RP with.

My advice is join some of the Linkshells that seem to suit you and also get along to the events posted on this site. The events are really good, both Coffer and Coffin and Spreed Meeting doubly so.

Ok, i will squash this now. Since it seems people don't understand. I have gone in taverns, walked up to groups of people, etc. I have stood beside people in various venues, and posted things. I have been ignored, or walked away from. The people who don't yell at me for rudely butting in, have completely ignored my existence. It's the same problem i had in all my other MMOs before i quit. I'm either being called a troll, for trying to get in on people rping, who are standing around. Or the latter. Which is why I'm more passively searching for people now. I'm tired of the troll card, and ignoring. So i tried to change my tactic, hoping to get more positive responses. I know i have to put myself out there, and i have for years. But i have seen little good come from it. Which is why i was hoping this site would be of some help. I have only gotten PM's from two people from this site, in game. Both were rude to me, so they were blocked. But neither of them were you. If you added me, i would have been asked to confirm. I was never asked, so it wasn't me.

Have you joined any OOC Linkshells?  Like Intermission or Balmung's Finest?

I joined 3 linkshells so far, and all i have left or been kicked. People in these OOC linkshells are a-holes. They tell me the same thing, when i join. "If you want to rp, just tell us; we are always available for rp if we're online". When i offer, i do so all day, waiting for someone to acknowledge. No one ever does, and later when people start talking, i ask why i was ignored. All i get in response is that I'm a troll, and that i should just shut up, maybe we don't want to rp with you. I have yet to join a linkshell that hasn't treated me like that. I have not tried the intermission one, yet. But i was a little reluctant, due to my experiences so far.
