I can see why people sit on IRC channels like #Worms even though they aren't there, mainly, it's not a place where people meet or look for others to play games, it's interesting to come back and read what everyone has been talking about, aslo, if I remember correctly, you can see the entire conversation from the moment you joined not just a certain amount back like Snooper etc.
Imagine if everything in real life worked the same way, we all just had a life size cut out of ourselves placed at every place we visit, the mall, the cafe, our jobs, school, sport venues etc, and it's only purpose is to show that we exist, it's just sad and disappointing lol, it's a bit cocky and desperate tbh.
I wish WNET would remove people who have been inactive for like 30 minutes, would be nice to join AG and know that everybody there, is actually there actively, or at least at their computer and would respond or tell you they are busy, sucks when you see a friend and get a little excited to play a game, but 90% of the time you message them you get no reply.
What makes it even worse, you sometimes see them randomly host games, so they didn't even bother to check/respond to messages anyway, so what is the point even being there AFK?
Or the worst, people join the channel and go AFK immediately.
If you ask me it's just rude, lazy, a bad habit or whatever lol, but we just live with it, these people will never change their ways
And for people that ignore you because they don't want to talk to you, they should just man up and tell you they don't like you and don't wanna speak to you, stop being ignorant pussies.
