>>32945991I don't know. I started playing back in HW with a bunch of old friends I'd known prior, some of us started raiding and others went back to WoW when Classic came out. Just kept people around in linkshells for ease of access when inviting for raids, and then the next thing you know it's 7 years later and the same people are still around.
So just start out with friends, that way you can say you have in-game friends too.
