Play wizard if you really enjoy the class! Just understand that finding groups will definitely be more difficult , and you will often be the last pick, a lot of people on this server are way too concerned with min / max to invite a wizard.
While it is true that exp group damage is the wizards weakest point, comparing their DPS to a meleeing cleric is pretty ridiculous. You're still going to contribute to the damage, just not as much as others. Favor your other strengths when needed and make friends, you will get more invites.
If you really prefer to group most of the time, I suggest choosing a group friendly class as your first character. You can play a wizard solo whenever you like, there's no need to be frustrated while doing so. All that said, it's a fun class that's not for everyone. Understand that the wizards greatest strengths are for raiding, so if that's what you're planning for, then they may be worth playing.
