MMO Social Epidemic

[Orryo]

People have seemingly lost the ability to be social, or willingness to be social. (Of course there are exceptions) A deafening silence seems present in this game as well as other MMO's.

Have you been in a DF group or premade group, 30mins and no more than hello is said? Or a group where silence is only broken by a person raging on, or berating another person? Have you been in a city teeming with life and people running around, yet nothing in chat channels? FC's that never says a word to each other?

No MMO will be have continued success without a community sharing laughs and experiences( I promise). The greatest memories and most exciting moments come from the uniqueness that our interactions with each other bring. Content, graphics, mechanics, and gimmicks mean nothing without solid friendships and social interaction. Some people want to be left alone and wish to remain quiet( perfectly fine), but communication feels dead, and it is dragging FF, and every other MMO with it. Maybe it is just me. What do you guys think?
