I'm not sure how you people handle those:

- do you keep those already send or should we post another each time a DM quits?
- unless there's definitely something new (like, hey, now i know how to script/build/maintain/DM tools/ etc...), do you prefer us reminding you every 3 month or would that irritate you off more than anything?
- since DM seeking seems a tough job, shouldn't you give a little feedback to those you don't want for such and such reason?

Vaulted Shadows

It's not always you

I'm going to just post my two cents though I realize this issue is done and over with.
 
NWN is not the newest game, the mere fact many servers keep such high populations is for the most part the game world. (I assume, I can't imagine everyone here just adores the graphics to death :P)
 
Sometimes though it's important to remeber it's not always you it's just the vibe of the server. For instance right now nature is really popular. Now some would say, but I made a sorc, shouldn't I get love. Yes, you should but if eight nature players are on and one sorc..I mean it's praeto's law, you put your time where the 80% is, not the 20%. Now other times (I know from experience) evil schemers were everywhere, other times clerics. Now if you walk up, to a group of druids, and you are a evil cleric or a devout paladin, they will not welcome you as family. It's not that they arn't friendly, or that you are unpopular it's just the game world at the moment. It always changes (or at least I think it does.)
 
However this does not mean EFU, is not friendly. I have yet to see anyone make a hello post and not get at least a handful of replies and a few "Oh hey that's cool, pm me and my char can help you out."
 
To sum it up, I'm just saying don't mistake IG friendliness with ooc friendliness. I still think this server is far friendlier then say Arelith or even Forgotten Realms of Cormyr where you can wander for hours without anyone saying, anything.
 
As for DM's, I think others would be nice but I still think Qualitiy over Quanitity is key.
 
To the application point, the dms are not hermits (at least I don't think so), if they think you are a awesome player and creating cool stories, they may invite you to the club or pm you. If all you do though is general quests they prolly won't.
 
Again just my two cents of worthlessness :)
