So does anyone else hang out in game?

I'm trying to get myself active and immersed in game again, and I am finding a regular problem.

Unless it's a dated and timed event, people don't appear to actually be in game. I've spent the last few days logged in 3-4 hours running around on runebooks I've made over the years of homes and hangouts of the community, and have yet to see anyone. Am I missing something? Are we doing our RP out of the game except for guild meetings and tavern nights?

Now I admit its a big world, and I can't be everywhere at once, but I when doing rounds, I make it a point to drop by the guild controlled areas and player towns multiple times. I stop by all of the taverns on the rotation list as well as all of the guuild halls that I have runes for,

Where is everyone?

My suggestion, pull up a random person's ICQ (doesn't have to be a friend or even anyone you know) Send a message, set up a meeting place. The RP might not go down that night, but certainly that week.

I mean this is how we "meet" our new players to get them started out isn't it? I don't see a reason as to why players cannot contact other players already in the community. There's also the RP chat channel IG but that's a little harder as people are not always able to answer (I know I have had to pass up a few "where's the RP tonight" due to being busy myself)

The RP sessions might take off with a bang, or they might fizzle, but at least it happened.

Here's my ICQ

Likewise.

What we're dealing with at the moment is a phenomenon called summer, where a bright gold ball in the sky beckons hermits out of their hovels and away from their computers. But it's not impossible. Lots of people just don't seem to log on unless they've got someone else to play with. Shoot an icq out and see where it goes! Smile

PS- You have mine. Cezanne Abella/Eclyse/et al.

Well for what it's worth if I am about you can just about always find me in Despise, or mining the mountains by Homare-Jima moongate. Though having been back from a very long break myself I am having the same problem you are.

We are still around every evening, and generally in ARPC chat (though we often are too busy to read/respond). Since things slowed down so much with RP over the summer, we've been doing more PVM, Training, and misc. stuff (fishing anyone?).

I am always in game in the evenings. When in game, I am in general chat. Also, my icq goes up when I get in game. Feel free to drop a line anytime. If you need good mining locations, I have two myself.
