Are you trying to start any conversations? Somebody needs to do it.

Also, if you take a look at the FC I'm in - it's advertised as chatty, but sometimes we've plenty of stuff going in-game, and sometimes it's more dead than desert. Some fault comes to it that we've few restricted linkshells going (officers for example), along with Discord, so people can be active there instead by either posting stuff or talking via voice-chat.

Just seen couple recruits joining in, never saying a word, not even "hi" upon logging in and then leaving through door silently while grumbling about lack of noise in FC.
