It is impossible on this website
 
To make friends. Or to even have people notice you exist. It kinda sucks.

Bartuc 08-27-2009 05:27 PM

I don't see how it is impossible. Everyone here is really nice and they will chat with anyone. =)

naidusiuke 08-27-2009 05:27 PM

yes you can make friend in here

Codette 08-27-2009 05:29 PM

*giggles* It's not impossible silly goose! Just talk to people, everyone is willing to befriend someone!

blatva 08-27-2009 05:29 PM

O.O I've been poking around all forums and theses are my first replies. Trust me, I'm trying

and thanks all >.>

Codette 08-27-2009 05:31 PM

A lot of people don't reply to their forums, or are just replying to the topic. But if you're really passionate about something, you can usually get a conversation going. And before you know it, you'll have friends!

Soul Searcher 08-27-2009 05:32 PM

Ello. I am Soul. There, you have now noticed my existence. ^^ Therefore, other people have noticed yours in your attempt to be noticed. =)
So, one could almost make the conclusion that what may "seem" impossible is only partially someones way of viewing a hard situation?

Bartuc 08-27-2009 05:36 PM

Please do keep in mind double posting is against the rules, your posts have been merged together.

Dream Weaver 08-27-2009 06:45 PM

In order to be noticed you must first do something to be noticed for. Just like you just did.

chiiruchan 08-27-2009 06:53 PM

I'm new so I don't know anyone yet... but I'm sure I will get to know people as I go along. ^_^ I think the best thing to do is make a topic on something you like and other people that like the same thing will talk to you and you will make friends with the same interests. At least that is what I have found out from other places I frequent.

Oukan 08-27-2009 06:55 PM

I know how you feel. T.T

Paper Face Parade 08-27-2009 07:07 PM

It's all in time. I'm new, and I really only have one friend, but if you feel like you are being unnoticed take charge sometime and go up to people and be like, "Yo! I'mz gonna talk to yous!" :illgetu:
along with posting on the forms a lot. You make lots of friends on the boards I feel, even if they don't friend request you.

I'll talk to you if you like. :yes:

DarkxLorelei 08-27-2009 08:56 PM

Be nice, be active, and just try :3
Then you can make some amazing friends~

Raishin 08-27-2009 09:09 PM

I disagree, like pretty much everyone else who posted. You just have to try a little bit. Also keep in mind this is a small community, so there's not as many people to get noticed by.

~LONGCAT~ 08-27-2009 09:49 PM

Yeah. Nope. Rediculously easy to get people to chat with you here. We're a friendly bunch. none of this. "I'm an old school member. joined when the world was beginning. I will only talk to other oldies." I don't think a single one of us is that conceded that we wouldn't talk to someone else here. We all remember when we were new and had no friends so we help out where we can

Captain Howdy 08-27-2009 10:16 PM

I'm going to go ahead and move this thread over to the Community Discussion forum. ;)

Adderly 08-27-2009 10:29 PM

I agree with OP.

Impossible to find friends or have people notice you... and I've been on here for awhile! x'D

Sizzla 08-28-2009 01:24 AM

I know you Adderly. XD I just never see you around! You've been around a lonnnnggg time too. :D

I don't think it's that hard to make friends here really. I've never had an issue busting into a conversation and making myself known. XP You just have to put yourself out there.

I get annoyed by posts that are just like:

"hi guys"

What kind of response does one expect to get from that? Why not make a longer post that has something interesting to talk about in it? That's how you get people to know you. Stick out your neck! I think this thread is a great start. ;)

CK 08-28-2009 01:26 AM

It's really not impossible... You just have to put yourself out there. It helps if you become a regular in a forum - which generally means being a regular in at least one thread of that forum.

Community Discussion isn't really a place you go to have a friendly one-on-one chat as such... Mostly discussing thoughts and specifics of the Menewsha community itself, so off-topic chatter is discouraged. More or less the same with General Discussions or Media - where the threads have a specific topic and are encouraged to stay more or less on-topic. But pretty much anywhere else you can go and just let conversation flow as it will.

And that's the point, of course. Having conversation. Joining in. Making posts with content that's easily able to be responded to. If all you do is drop a line or two in a thread with a set topic, you're certainly posting around and making yourself visible, but you'll get very few direct replies. Many people in set-topic threads seem to operate in a post-and-fly principle - where they post and then fly off and may not return to the topic to see if anyone responded to them and what they had to say.

If you're really looking for friends, you'll want to form a niche for yourself where you have an interest. Creating or joining a thread in Menewsha Nations that suits your interests. Dropping by someone's Quest or Charity and saying hello and returning for any conversation that follows rather than wandering off and hoping they'll find you again.

It honestly doesn't take much other than making that effort. Though making that first step can be difficult for people.

Dr. Nyx 08-28-2009 01:53 AM

It's not impossible, but I have noticed that it is fairly hard. There isn't a whole lot of places to post where people will reply to you. Even if you go to the Role Play section, it seems like there are several private role plays. Which leaves you role playing by yourself, which is not only a little embarrassing but not very fun.
