The above part of your post could easily be turned around. For example..."If you want to group with just a small handful of players, why are you playing EQ?" Why not play Diablo II or something similar with your group?

It sounds like you are saying here that - if you want to have lots of social interaction in EQ, you need to group. That's not just incorrect - it could even be argued that it is backwards.

I find I have much more time to interact with...well, everybody (except my group)....when I am not in a group.


I should make it clear that I am NOT saying grouping is bad. I personally love it. I'm just saying that your suggestion (that those who do not group are either not social, or, not properly enjoying the social aspect of EQ) is misled.
