Introducing yourself to groups?

I'd say it depends on a lot of things, the size of the group, what the group exists for (is it a club, a team, a bunch of friends), what you know about them, what they know about you, what you expect your role to be if you become a part of the group, there is probably no one size fits all way to meet new people.

Honestly? I don't bother with introductions unless asked I'm asked to.

I'll enter a group, usually while playing with my phone, and I'll wait for one of the more "beta-ush" guys to introduce himself. They almost always do.

Then, usually out of some sense of socialized groupthink, the rest of tgem will introduce themselves, usually in pairs.

What's funny is that following the betas introduction, 9 times out of 10 it'll be the girls in the group, followed by the men who're attracted to said girls. Just about every time.

You might see just joining a group and playing on your phone as rude or awkward. Well, here's the thing:

I don't. It works.
