How do you enjoy multiplayer?

Comes from the Webcomic Penny Arcade: Greater Internet [censored] Theory

Also abbreviated G.I.F.T.

Regular Person + Anonymity + Audience = Complete and utter jerk
I think that's a bit of an unfair indictment of the regular person. In fact there seems to be a majority of regular people on this forum who don't fit that description. So maybe the regular person should be substituted with jerk in hiding. I understand it's not your definition though.
 
Thanks for your help everyone. Clearly, I've come to the right place, and the game can be enjoyed in several ways. I will first reacquaint myself with the controls, and then scour discord and the forums for a group.

Thanks again!
Hit me up in the game with a friend request. See my signature for my game username. I can show you how to make money pretty quickly if you need or run interference for you while you're mining or hauling expensive commodities.

It’s a well known effect, though. The proper term is the Online Disinhibition Effect, and while the lack of immediate and obvious consequences of online behavior is frequently negative, it has its positive side as well, where people feel safe to discuss problems they’re having through the anonymity of the internet.
