Toribash
Original Post
I feel sad
No one seems to like me. Any friends I had are gone. I don't want to quit playing Toribash but it's heart breaking for me.

I don't know how to make friends i guess. Does anyone have any consolation for me?
If it's really bad, see a therapist or councilor. If it's just a phase, find something else to occupy your time. Something good like a musical instrument. Maybe get a pet dog or something?
Sooner or later you'll have to man up and learn to talk to people and stuff. You can't live your whole life expecting people to come up to you.
Nope. 24 year old disabled veteran. I don't make friends easily. I suffer from Agoraphobia, among other things. But I want friends here on Toribash. I wouldn't have minded not having any, but I did and now they are gone. To be honest, the friend I am grieving over the most is Mosier.

I think that is what is getting me into the most trouble. I was trying to keep in touch with my friends from RAWR. Unfortunately only Nuthug's abused liver is the only one left, and now Siku is running a smear campaign against me on their boards. It just really hurts my feelings.

Everyone so far has pretty much just accused me of sucking up to RAWR. I couldn't give a damn less about clans. To me it should be a symbol of unity and friendship, but I guess with so many people just seeing it as a status symbol I got lost in the silly attempts and people think I'm trying to force my way in. Which is stupid. Why would I want to be part of a corpse regardless of their reputation while they were alive.
Unless you've committed some kind of atrocity against mankind, then you won't ever be without people who like you. Your parents, for example, are probably the people on this planet who hold you in the very highest regard.

As for making friends, there is no definite method of doing that. Be friendly to others, talk to them even if you're shy or reluctant. I'm very shy myself, i know how difficult it can be, but the end result is totally worth it. You'll know which people you really get along with, and also the ones you don't quite click with, but if you remain friendly then they will too. Unless they're jerkasses, in which case you shouldn't be around them anyways.

edit: welp, ninjas everywhere. Advice still applicable though, forumites are people too.

<Blam|Homework> oiubt veubg
various places to find me lol
Thank you guys.

@dad
Yes Siku is unfriendly.
@shook
lol, My parents were abusive, that is why I ran away to join the American military, and well, sh!t happens.


I know I will make new friends, but I am still grieving over the loss of the old ones. I have used google and other tools to try and find my old friends elsewhere, but they seem to have covered their tracks. It's like telling me their dead. Even if I ever see Mosier again, I'll never know. We could be staring at each other across a screen and never know.
@ God
A friend is a friends regaurdless. But to be clear, yes, they are friends to me. And I do have friends, albeit few.

Thank you for your words of incourageemnt
From this point on we would do our best not to mention Siku. I see nothing good coming from it. Regaudless of his personality he and I are in conflict at the moment.
You sure are taking this whole toribash thing too seriously. Though luckily I am a space-doctor so I can evaluate this situation in a medical analysis. Through your eyes I see a few options available to you in this situation.

1.) Kill yourself

This is the most simple option. Turn on your bathtub or shower, unplug any electrical device, and dive right in! You wont feel a thing. Be sure to leave a death note for your ex-toribash friends so they know you have been taken to a better place.

2.) Quit the game

This game is not as good as you seem to be making it out to be. Your twenties should be one of the most active times in your life. Get off the internet and go run around in that big yellow bright thing with some real people. (Of course, I wouldn't do this, I'm to busy making a successful career out of playing fighting games and space-doctor-ing)
