    Why can't I just be a silent npc party member? Am I a bad person? Great now I'll never stop thinking about this.
    Do you at the very least say hi?

    To me, it's quite rude to not even acknowledge the people that you will be spending the next 20-40 minutes with. I don't expect much, just some sort of greeting...especially if everyone else has already shared a hello D:

    Does "o7" count? Hello is just too long (kidding on that). I'm a ghost/NPC, or as I like to call it, a zombie. I don't feel bad, I'm just there because the tomes say I need to be. Occasionally I'll put out a o7, but that's about all DF groups are gonna get.

    Edit :: Small correction - I will assist if there is a new player that specifically asks for advice/has a question that I can answer.

    A mentor stole my house, slapped me across the face, and raised my ping from 15 to 30. Literally unplayable.

We as humans are social animals and we need/crave that interaction even if you aren't a social person you still want it which I understand, for me jumping into DF with music and by myself i'm just focused on the task at hand doing it as efficiently as I can.

    This is the first time in any MMO that i've played where people are offended by not saying hello at the start of a dungeon/trial/midas normal it's just weird for me, not insulting or anything that people think that we all have our perceptions and opinions, but strange to a person like me.

    No....I just want to do it & leave & I am incredibly socially awkward & I'm on PS4 so my kb is far away a lot

    I can see how it might be "mean" now that I think of it...But uhhh my social levels are too weak it has nothing to do with the other people I just get uncomfortable as crazy as that sounds.
