    I'm glad that it is not as much of a cultural thing as I thought then.
    I remember playing WoW and I recall that most people said nothing when entering a party or dungeon together.

    That's really sad. I played WoW for a month or two and decided it wasn't for me, so I can't comment at all on the raid culture there. I think most people have the attitude that they're never going to see the party again, so there's no need for formalities.

    Of course not. Being polite is not limited to culture.
    I say "Hello everyone" and "thanks for the run, have a good day" without even thinking about it. A lot of people I've encountered though have literally left the duty before I even finished typing goodbye xD
    This is my experience on the Chaos datacentre at least.

    I check everything because, as stated, most DF things require no communication, most DF things HAVE no communication, and 99.9% of the time (on Primal anyway) it's an English speaking party anyway if they speak at all.

    Maybe for except the most difficult extreme/savage fights (which I don't do anyway), there are sufficient tools to communicate most basic strategies.
