People who catch my eye generally are the ones who get the best shot. The longer a person can hold my attention and "respectful liking" the more likely it is that I will, in a fit of wanting to know them, actually open myself up enough to VM them or otherwise chat with them. I'm really not much for small talk...my range of small talk is very limited. From "What/Why/How are you doing/feeling?" to something I can actually talk about or relate to with reasonable authority or confidence is usually the course of conversation that I like. I'm really a fish out of water when it goes astray from that.

I'm quite a shy person actually...and it's oftentimes more effective to do good deeds, and make yourself approachable and WAIT for me to see you first. If I don't notice you or show signs of it...then you can politely try to initiate a conversation and see where it leads.

If I can't find something I can hold in common with a person, oftentimes conversation just dies out. If you can't at least show a passive interest in something I enjoy or share something with me, whether it be an experience or opinion then why waste your time if you intend to have a good friendship? I don't mind it not being able to share something in common, I understand that everyone is different, but it makes it far easier to trust someone who understands something as I do, so don't expect me to be all that talkative if you're not going to try to find SOMETHING in common with me. x3

I've given up trying to make friends. All the people that I want to make friends with either:
PC:
A) Get thousands of VMs a day, so I'll just be another number on their friends list
B) Are never on
C) Out of my league
D) Are hard to hold/start a convo with

IRL (also applies to PC mostly):
1) Are not in any of my classes
2) Turn out to be really annoying after while
3) Put on a facade/don't meet my expectations

I just let people come to me. It's been working out better that way.

When it comes to PC, What's the usual way your usual way you become good friends with someone?
I usually just send them a VM and start conversing :D

Is it through someone who posts at lot in the same section you like to hang in? Is it one of those random "Hi!" VMs you can get and you want to get to know that person better?
A bit of both :D

Is it one of those times where you see someone post so often you drop them a VM?
Mainly, hahaha

Is it through The DCC or through playing forum games?
Through something you have the same Interest?
DCC over the forum games :D
