haha Kingalu and Neon are right when they say its hard. And you can never tell who's going to be a good friend or not unless the worst comes and hits you in the face...
But LolChans just proves how some would quit if they're friends weren't there anymore... I guess it just depends to how much you love the game
My situation is the same as you Venth, but you seem fine to go on in the game despite really knowing any friends. I wish to stay too because I have spent years on the game and have accomplished so much I would hate to just leave and see it all go to waste... but then again it gets sooo boring when none of my friends are even on :(
