I'm not going to say much. I really don't have much to say. I'm at the point in my life where I don't want to get involved in OOC drama and arguing.
I can't say why they attack was ignored. Perhaps the completely missed the post. I've done that before. But I will say this. If my character is attacked and I don't know you and you haven't PMed me to ask if that is okay, then I am very likely to ignore the attack. If you're not going to respect me by asking before hand, then why should I respond? It's not quite that cut and dry, but it's my general stance on the issue.
And as to new characters getting ignored, it's a two way street. I've seen characters sitting the tavern, yawning and making snide comments about being bored, but doing nothing to interact with anyone else. Just like real life, you have to make an effort as well. Ceres doesn't approach every unfamiliar face. In fact, he's inclined not to unless something catches his attention. That said, he's very friendly and welcome to people he doesn't know approaching him. It goes two ways. You can't complain about your new character being ignored if they're not making an effort to interact.
Disclaimer: I'm not saying anyone who's posted is guilty of that. I honestly only skimmed the posts. It's just something I've noticed during most of my time here, and my wife, who is very new here, has also noticed.
