I am not one for long posts or reading long posts it's a dyslexia thing and many many years living with it. So being brief..
People will group together over a many things, and that is all well and good. The downside for me is when they start to judge those outside their self created set of norms. There is also the reverse where those outside see a collective and judge it based on assumptions.
Answer.. look for similarities and positives not the differences and negative. Focus on what brings us together and not what pushed us apart.
We are all part of the RP clique for a start!
We are all part of the FFXIV & Balmung clique!
... and so on.
Personally, I play to RP and the game is just something to-do in the gaps. If there was no RP I would not be here. For a lot of times I feel lonely I don't feel I am part of any clique and hostly I tend to be the one who goes for those people on the fringes to get them involved.Â
What does work for me is offering to help people, listening to their ideas and just making yourself available. That way you meet people and make friends. Though exclusive partnership RP while having its up side also can mean many people are "lost" to that (I have been there myself and don't see anything wrong with it).
I will happily not run roulette and daily tribes to come help someone RP and the odd dungeon, just hit me up I don't bite and I can adapt to many styles and stories. Or just for a chat.
