Shy, lazy, bored or a combination of all ?

Sorry if I've ever offended anyone by not responding to them in a group dungeon. I'm there to fulfill my role I queued up as. If I made friends with everyone I encountered, my friends list would be maxed out. I'm not a big talker, unless on voice, even then I don't really talk much. IRL, I don't even text/call much. Sorry for being me.

When entering a dungeon, bg or any other small scale grp thing I say something like "heya" or "hello" because I think it's a good way to start. Sometimes you get a reply from one or two but in many cases it's nothing, not a Word.

So what is your reason for not greeting your fellow players ?

i am just here to get this bread done and then move on to do the next thing, i am not here to socialize.

When i don't have any useful information to provide to my team, i don't bother to type in chat.

It's just my habit from other competitive games. There are time for socializing, like in guild chat, with friends in group, hell, or even in zone chat, but when i solo queue, it's pure business.

This is so crazy, another one that considers saying hi is socializing

I don't give a *** about how you wanna call it.

Call it whatever you want.

I am a competitive player, I am there to get things done, it's business, i am not there to pretend to be nice like someone here. Pretending to be nice doesn't make you a good person irl.

I will say it here, I don't know for sure if you are a horrible person irl or not, but from the stuffs you write here, I am certain that you are just pretending to be nice to make you feel good about yourself, to feed your own self-esteem.
Like, when people don't response to your half-assed & hypocritical "hello" in chat, you immediately assume that they are either shy, lazy, or bored, or a combination of those things, in short they are lesser than you, it can't be anything else, it can't be that they have chat hidden, it can't be that they just don't pay attention to chat at that moment, it can't be that they are foreign players who don't speak English well so they don't bother with chat, it can't be any other thing, it has to be one of the negative things you listed.
You are just a hypocrite who pretends to be nice, who acts all high and mighty with your "oh look i type hello in game chat i am such nice person i love me so much", you don't care about actually greeting people, you don't care about them, you just want to feed your own self-esteem.

Geeeez you draw an awful lot of unpleasant conclusions don't you. Saying hello would make me feel good about myself ?? Is that really how you see it ? I say hello cause I think it's something that you do when you "meet" new people and it's a good way to start off things. Sometime people reply sometimes they don't, it's their choice. You on the other hand has taken this to a whole new and very unpleasant level.

The reason for this post was just to find out why some not respond, simple as that.

Yeah if you actually cared about finding out why some not respond, then you wouldn't phrase it "Shy, lazy, bored or a combination of all", when there could be so many reasons, like you know, they just didn't pay attention to the chat, but no no, it has to be one of those negative things you mentioned, how dare those faceless lesser beings not respond to your half-assed and hypocritical "hello" in a video game. Then you go belittle every single person who stated reasons why they didn't say hi, there was a dude who said he came to do their job and be done with it, not to socialize (as a figure of speech, they just came here to get the job done, not to mess around), and you were like "lmao you call this socializing? your real life must be so pitiful haha let me laugh at you hahaha".

So yeah, you might not even realize it, but deep down, what you are doing, especially when creating this thread, is to feed your own self-esteem, you don't care about actually greeting people, you don't care about the people you get in your game, you just want to feel good about yourself and have an opportunity to look down on others.

I get that, there are a lot of reasons but do you really think I should list them all ??

You know what, my experience tells me that if you don't have anything to say of the matter you resort to attacking the poster as an individual. It's a cheap and cowardly thing to do and doesn't add anything whatsoever then a bad name for yourself.

Or you can simply phase it the way a decent human does: "What are the reasons of people not saying hi in game chat?". You don't have to assume that people who do that are either shy, lazy, bored or a combination of all. And you apparently don't have to go around belittling others who stated their reasons for not doing that.

I am not the first one who say "mean things". Apparently someone has been going around to belittle people who don't say hi to others in game chat. "lmao you call this socializing? your real life must be so pitiful haha let me laugh at you hahaha".
But hey, at least I don't pretend to be nice.

If you are to quote me don't make things up and make it look like you are qouting me, that's really low.

So it's the question in itself that got you so worked up ?

Why are you so mad? Did i just see right through you?

What happened to the role model guy who cares deeply about their fellow gamers?

The nice guy is all just an act? You have no intention of finding out why people don't reply in a pug? You just want to feed your self-esteem and look down on others?

Oof.

If you have any selfrespect just stop.
