Let's talk about online friends.

Do you talk to the same people you talked to last year? The year before that? Perhaps even the year before that? Do you go from group to group on a regular basis and build strong friendships with people over a short amount of time, and then on to the next one?

What is it exactly that you do?

Discuss here, in this thread.

Everyone is welcome.

Except for Lana.

So, what's it going to be everyone?

If you want people to open up you have to confide in them, then people are in turn more likely to confide in you.


I confided in you once, and you confided in me in return.

This is correct information.

If you want people to open up you have to confide in them. Make yourself vulnerable, and then they in turn will be more likely to confide in you.

Do you think that people who go from friend group to friend group are inherently a waste of time?

Do you believe that people who so often cut ties with those closest to them are problematic?

Why is lana muted


Because she's a muppet.

I'm also one of those quality over quantity people. I have no problem with being a cunthole in the public eye, because ultimately the people who know me well, know me to be a good lad.

In the same respect, I don't like to waste my time in talking to people who are the opposite. People who are nice in public settings, but are complete douchebag spanners behind closed doors are generally the people I do not mesh with on any level.

From my experience of online people, I find that people are not necessarily reserved, at least on EpicMafia. Some people are happy to just openly start conversation about something personal, and this is normally the case if they have a lot on their mind, whilst others generally tend to need a bit of time to warm to you.

I'm not sure why people are reserved with you, Warrens.

This is difficult to answer coherently.

Generally, I'm a cünt to most people, but I am a good friend to those that get beyond the first stage kinda thing.

I don't circlejerk, ever, and I don't think I particularly have short term friends. Some people I may have banter with etc. but if I'm not interested in talking to them regularly or for a considerable while, then I won't add them on Skype, Snapchat or anything else.

This site has a much more social aspect to one or two others that I regularly use, so it's different. In other games there are people who I play with on a daily basis, and on one website I run a clan so I know all my guys and have most of them on Facebook, but it's rare I'd have a casual chat with them.

I'm about quality over quantity with literally everything, and the way I described myself only changes for few people. Essentially, I'm a nice dickhəad.

tl;dr I took this way too seriously because I'm bored in work.


Escurai says

I feel like all my online friendships would last if I started the conversation more often, but as it is I fall out with people who are like me and wait to be messaged


We don't speak that much but you're one of few people here I'd bother calling a friend.

Oh, who is Dahlia?

Idk, I've never been able to make or keep online friends. People on the internet, and especially epicmafia, are extremely reserved, which means my conversations with them are vague.

Also, before when I was like 14 or 15, I would act really weird. IDK what it was specifically, but I would just ask random personal questions from people that I just met.

To answer your question:

I don't get bored of people, I don't think people get bored of me because I'm spontaneous, and I just always try to keep a conversation flowing I guess.

Why do you stop speaking to certain people?

What is it about certain friendships that make you lose interest?

I very much weave in and out of friend groups, entire communities (including people I'd consider among my closest friends) will go months or even years without hearing from me.

I usually have two or three people I talk to on a daily basis, and though who I talk to tends to rotate, it's usually people I've known for a number of years.


You've been talking to me everyday for at least a year now.

How to Clean Mould on Walls in Three Steps

1. Make a solution of chlorine bleach and water – usually 1 part bleach to 3 parts water – or get hold of a household detergent like Domestos bleach spray with bleach as an active ingredient.

2.. Using a stiff-bristled brush, scrub the blackened area.

3. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
