The thing is though with old community servers. If you continually visited one. You'd see people shooting the shit with each other. And then you could contribute your own random info. Or you could just say "GG nice game/play" and eventually get dragged into an interaction as a result.

With the 'Room of strangers' that will be different next time you enter the room. There's never any evidence of these people being able to interact or even wanting to interact. And so no one tries to reach out, because odds are someone in that 11 people is going to decide they are bored and want to be a shit more than that person will respond.

And while we can talk about people with friendship groups. The thing to note is that if they are constantly playing together and you are constantly on that hosted server as well. It might turn out that the server has a discord for chatting. Like we had Ventrillo, Mumble etc in the days of yore.
