That didn't look like a throwaway PSN account either.

>>385835570
why? were they clingy and annoying?

>>385836763
Nah, they were nice. Mostly MMO friends I've played with for years. I'm just a shit person that just stops logging in when he's lost interest.

>>385836586
He had so much fun playing with you he didn't want to ruin it retroactively by having a bad session.

Is there a worse feeling in vidya than MMO friends disappearing out the blue?

>>385839339
Nah, what's worse is them quitting gradually. You know it's happening but can't stop it. Then one day, after a long time playing because you didn't know to do anything else but play, it just hits you that you don't talk to anyone anymore. You look at your guild list and everyone's name is gray.

>>385840014
literally me

>>385833235
Shouldn't have told them to be gone then, eh Craig?

>>385840014
Even worse than that, when they continue playing but got bored of you and don't try to talk/play with you anymore.

i dont get this meme
if you want to stay in contact with someone give them your email or phone number

Ahhh, memories.

I am an immigrant from southeast Asia and moved to America when I was young, my family lived in a small 2 bedroom apartment and right under us was a Russian family. Me and that Russian kid who's name was Michael in America were best friends ever since we were like 8, both of us had thick accents but we played video games and sports together all the time. Both of is were poor so one summer when we were 15, we both worked and we saved together enough money to build a really awesome gaming pc, he was a really nice friend and he told me that i should be the owner and keep it at my house. When we got home from school, we'd plat video games all afternoon if there was no other sports to play. Sometime when we were both around 18, his family decided to move to Florida.

Man, we are still best friends though, we still play games together almost every day even though we both are busy and hope someday we will live near each other

I can't make online friends because it feels like a commitment every time. I'll speak to someone a few times, get bored, and move on.

The idea of having lots of friends, in general, sounds like a job to me. I need a certain amount of alone time.

Treasure what you have and never let it go.

>>385840421
I wonder why

>>385839339
Not having MMO friends at all. I don't think I've made a single one for the last 7 years or something. You barely get to talk to people and if you do, it's mostly for raids and shit, which is more like a partnership for convenience than friends and shit.
Fuck, that's probably the main reason I can't give a fuck about MMOs anymore.
