<Snipped quote by Double>
Yes, if a tool can not provide me with its primary function and instead forces me to seek out other tools to do the same than it is in fact useless as a tool. Shocking, I know.
If I have to go to discord or any other different site to socialize than what exactly is the purpose of me being here than? I can just go there and delete my account here.
This site has thus far been in fact useless in that nobody on it socializes at all. And I can honestly see why. Every time I say anything people just jump to shout me down. And than they are surprised I don't feel confident to engage with people. Again, shocking.
That's why I barely say anything and just retreat further into darkness. Because every time I peek out I get spat at. And since I don't have this problem in real life or any other site or social interaction I know it ain't me.

And god knows I tried chatting up the OOC thread and I tried engaging with you all and making some sort of community out of this. The first pages are proof of that. In fact I invested a lot more time and energy into it than I ever usually have to. But I eventually just gave up because nobody else was interested.
I don't know what to tell you because I'm really not sure what you want at this point.
You can't expect everyone to sit on a Roleplaying Site socializing all day every day. Even if they aren't busier than average that's just not a realistic expectation. Which is why so many opt to use discords to accompany their roleplay. For better organization and a better way to interact with each other. If you aren't even willing to make that little of an effort to join discord how can you complain when things are dry?
And you don't get spat at every time you peek out. You only peek out to spit and complain. Without looking back through the OOC I can't remember the last thing you said here that wasn't just negative or some form of complaining. You can't expect a place or people to be welcoming or sociable when that's the energy you bring.
