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.
Take comfort. Yes, this does happen, and there are many people with whom I once talked with and had excellent connections online, myself, and whom either have moved onward or have found other outlets.
But I think you nailed it somewhat in that RPers are subject to Shiny Object Syndrome. Many of us see long lists of really neat, skilled, and entertaining people in forums and online, and we want to "RP ALL THE THINGS!" Since we do not have time to do that with EVERYONE (if you've figured out how, I want your mojo powers), some people and connections can become weaker. It isn't necessarily that they do not like you anymore - in fact, there are people with whom I no longer RP, because they have moved to different games, who I would love to meet with again and discuss this and that, but those same people are doing what we are doing - Finding RP, being creative, working on projects, and looking to see what Hawt New Faces ™ are appearing on the scene.
