I thought about this too but this was my first time meeting these people in-person. Like I sat right beside them and they looked directly at me, moved their seats close to each other, and pretended I wasn't there. I didn't say a single word to em.
were u guys talking to each other before, and they stopped talking to u after u met? or were they just always ignoring u?

We are in a group chat together and that's literally it
Like I was wondering if they thought I was part of a different group but that couldn't be it because our group had a designated spot.

Make sure to make a paper trail of evidence of you making an effort to contribute to the project and them not collaborating. Make sure this is on official uni email / whatever your school official messaging platform is.
This way if you try to claim you contributed nothing youve got a leg to stand on

No, not at all. We don’t have each other names saved, only numbers. We were randomly paired.

I will do this thank you! I will write down how they did not communicate with me in person. Also, they are sending messsges/some updates about the project in our group chat. That’s why I’m trying to contribute in some form without doing too much.

in-person ? yes. In-text? Yes. I sent maybe one message in the group chat but it's alot of us.

They knew I was in the group tho!! we were in a zoom call before.Plus they deliberately sat all the way a down the aisle like they didn't want to be bothered

hmmm
two things. u could be misreading their actions. ppl be shy, if they don't know u and u never said anything to em they might not go out of their way to make sure ur included. but that doesn't mean they have anything against u yk what i mean. its possible them sitting where they sat was not that deep, i wouldn't read into it.
now the other thing. they could be misreading ur actions! if u never texted them n u barely spoke to them much in person, they might think u don't give a f*** abt the project.

I appreciate this response a lot. Thanks for approaching this from a different angle, and it’s very possible that they were shy or thought I didn’t care. However, it was like 5 of them and one of them could have at least tried to communicate.
I know that if it was me I would have reached out to make sure no one was excluded, because that’s what my mom taught me. Although not everyone was raised that way, and it’s something I have to think about before judging others actions. Either way, I’m going to contribute to the project but I’m not going overboard.
It just feels weird when they literally sat all the way down the aisle away from me without even trying to communicate.

Brother probs wasn’t talking at all during the project.
Of course they’d find him weird

Bro go have this talk with your group

They sat all the way in the other side like they didn’t want to be bothered? This was our very first time meeting in person, plus none of us really texted in the chat because it’s 12 of us.
Like today for example, I texted asking for an update on a part of the project, and no response. So atp I’m just creating a paper trial and moving accordingly. They don’t care about communicating and I don’t care care about this project.

It’s not worth it. I tried to communicate through text and they aren’t responding, so I’m going to let them figure everything out on their own. I’m just covering myself just in case they tell the professor I didn’t contribute.

That’s the problem with people today. Y’all hate to communicate. Now I respect you at least attempting through text instead of jumping straight to having ego issues about it, but giving up isn’t a great answer either.
Go be a man and say exactly what you need to say directly to their face in the best way possible so there is no doubt in what is going on. At that point you can truly say you did everything in your power to be included in your group. S*** you should even go to the professor after if the direct conversation got you nowhere and tell them you did everything you could and they just won’t include you. Ask to be reassigned to another group or to be able to just work alone for this one assignment as it isn’t cool to have your grade carried by a group that won’t even let you participate.

There’s like two days left of the semester, majority of other groups have probably submitted their projects. I’m starting to think they don’t care about this project either, because it’s 12 of us and no one is typing in the chat. This is the worst group I’ve ever had.
I’ve also been thinking about sending a message to the professor but it’s so late now, it seems pointless.
many things you could do -
1- somehow get access to their notebooks/books etc and throw them away.
2-write a scandalous love letter with f***ed up s*** make it see like its written by lets say classmate A, then drop it in the locker room of classmate b or smething.
3- create a fake online ig account of one of the classmates and just go to town on it - post scadalous things on tha account - make it seem like it was them - send f***ed up messages to teachers - even better wouldbe to make a linkedin accouunt
It's more of a social thing - I feel like they are deliberately excluding me. I at least want to know whats going on but f*** it
Idk why you’re getting the replies you’re getting dude that sounds incredibly belittling. If I were you I would try to speak to them one on one and ask what was going on and why they were treating you that way. I think you should do that
