Its kind of a bummer... The live chat doesnt really help. I mean its all good to be a loner but this site seems kinda of social and it seems like theres lots of good people here but its difficult to make friends. idk im just rambling.

its really not all that difficult man. just participate. try to get into the conversations in the main chat and try to be positive. people will start to notice you more and more. just give em time. gl and welcome to pokerowned
There are some people that are kind of rude, but most of the people actually help and are nice.Quote:

I don't think it's that difficult, I mean if you play the games, and join the chat or just browse profiles, i'm sure you'll have buddies in no time. And of course no site is perfect and some people come off as tough, but if you give it a chance and be active, i'm sure your tune will change. GL.Quote:

Welcome to po this is a great place i will be first to say i am a dick asshole but im also cool and i like helping people out when i can when they need it bc i know how it is when your tryin to get points as to when i first signed up i didnt take the time to learn the site and how to do the offers and get points so i decided in december 2012 to sign back into my acct and started learning the site and talking to some and helped me.
This is a very friendly place for the most part, I'll make sure to say hi to you if I see you in chat:D
Once you're around for a while, you'll make friends. Get in the conversations and talk to people on the chat. Rail other players and get other players to rail you. This is still a poker forum so make friends thru poker.
I think it's like the real world, people have to get to know you and most important you have to earn their respect as a person and as a poker player. This is a great forum.
As someone said there are some people here who aren't very nice, but there is just a few. Ignore them. Welcome and give it a few weeks and you'll find that most people are nice.
you dont want to be "friends" with broke degens. go on p2p and befriend some pros.
we at PO are just drama degens. NOTHING MORE!
a lot of these guys just want to get in your pants if you were a woman they wouldn't care
I kinda have to agree with this not because of assholes or because people arent nice and polite but because I am a fairly anti social individual and generally have no damn clue what to say and even when I am being "polite" tend to piss people off and like you I ramble but I am trying to work on people skills along with my poker skills so who knows this might help. Although I still tend to just watch and observe I love the forum for the information there is plenty of it I just never know what to say or how to respond.Quote:

Welcome to the forum!!
I didn't join PO to make friends, I joined it for the FRs. I kinda feel like a PO ghost. I joined in September and I'm on here constantly, but since I don't ever chat or pm anyone I don't think anyone actually knows who I am. I don't mind though, I'm still addicted!!
why would anyone really want to be friends with a virtual screen name?
For the most part since I have been on the site I have met some really cool people! Made some what you would call poker buddies and some that I would actually consider being a friend!! Just join in and have some fun!!
same here lol and i think i joined in September too.Quote:
