Lol , I find this worrying trend when I now log on to Sins.
Often im the mute type. I just join a game , play it , win or lose , then exhange "ggs" . No need for lifestories , a/s/l . Ill go into tactics and strat talk , but nothing that doesnt relate to the game.
but it seems many games nowadays are hosting slots for friends only.
at first I thought ,ok thats fine - Maybe its John102 hosting a game for Bob345 who he knows in real life. But now im seeing people host 10 player games for friends only and tons of people join! crap! Im not friends with the host but everyone else is

.
So moral of the story. Make friends! who knows in a few months time people will only be hosting freinds only game if they
know they have enough selective friends to join their games. I know I would!.
