Is it too much to ask for a social FC or do I need to lower my expectations?

You need to watch out for those FCs that recruit on a whim. They don't tell you that most of their actives are on break until xpac and they recruit on a whim because they're bored themselves. They talk to you for the day and then...that's all you get.

My recommendations:
-Join an active, social linkshell. It's basically a better chat pool than an fc, without the fc buffs and typically more members than a fc. If you still want fc buffs, join one that has buffs regularly activated.

-If you're still set on FCs over LS, try to join one that's more or less preparing itself for upcoming xpac. Those are the ones where most members will continue to play right up to patch date and beyond.

-Don't be afraid to ask the right questions before joining: How many people are actually active on a daily basis? Do they have social events/activities? What kind of content do they do?

Hope this helps.

How do you find a social LS?
