I started writing this topic several times, trying to avoid rambling but eventually doing nothing but that. So instead, I'll be direct (he says in the second sentence already and before an ever approaching colon) : none of my friends play games and I don't have any online friends (heartbreaking violin music ensues).
Whilst I was in France teaching for the 3rd year of my degree, my family moved and so now, home for the summer, I'm currently at least 2 hours away from any uni friends, and even further from all old school friends. So that's one of the reasons I want some e-buddies.
Secondly, with my screw-you-teaching-assistant-money, I built a PC for games. And I love me some 1080p/60fps single player malarkey, but I also have a TONNE of multiplayer games (and yet to be bought ones that I'd love to play in co-op - i.e. Monaco) that are begging to be played with non strangers. So, second reason.
I joined the GB Steam group but to be honest it seems pretty dead, the last post being sometime in mid-May (due to exam season?). I installed the mumble thing, and think I put in everything right for the GB group but tbh it's all quite new to me.
So, a question or two pour vous (that's French (but got the thrill from the rhyme)), giantbombers (that's not): How do you make friends online? What's the GB PC gamers social etiquette for these proposals of good times and camaraderie?
(brackets, bitches)
