Is your friend making plans with you and then not going through with them? Or is he not committing to making plans because, he already has plans? I understand that many here view an online gaming commitment as no big deal, but scheduling a raid on EQ can be a logistical nightmare. I'm a casual player myself, heck it's been weeks since I loaded it up, but I do belong to a guild and I've gone on well-organized raids and participated in some really fun RP in EQ. Your post said that he "often says he can't because he wants to play EQ!" That leads me to believe that he has a prior commitment, unless you have an indication that he's soloing, in which case he is choosing EQ over you and not just honoring a previous commitment. To me, "blowing someone off" is when you make plans and then cancel with little or no warning. If he is just letting you know tyhat he already has plans then your dilemma is actually simpler, make plans with him further in advance and that way whe someone says to him on EQ, "Want to go to ToFS on Thursday?" He can say, "No, I have plans to do some TTRP with my close RL friend Derian....  who rocks by the way... we're going to play in his cool new Twin Crowns Campaign .... which also rocks...  yeah... W00t..." Or something like that anyway....</blockquote>
