I suppose it's because Worm probably wasn't written to be a completely realistic simulation of people in such circumstances. Nor is Miss Hermitcrab. They are merely people's interpretations of such, much like how psychiatric models of the human mind are as well. The latter are simply more specialized and researched to their role.
Well, Rachel sounded quite a bit like feral children. I'd hazard a guess that wildbow did her homework. From my knowledge of psychology, that result is pretty likely. No social skills? Little desire to interact with people? Attempts to circumvent these ending badly?
No offense, but until stated, your knowledge of psychology is rather dubious from my perspective. Furthermore, I doubt the hermit crab (because "hermit-crab with a closet for a shell" takes too long to type) was in the same conditions. Bullying and mild isolation do not seem to be factors that would make someone resemble a feral child.

@GWG

Either that or, y'know, you didn't bother asking Andras. He's got shit to do, unlike the other entities, so he can't be asked to read into every single thing you people do. I even reminded you about Andras and the two people who have Andromalius' title, before the crisis ended.

Is there some sort of miscommunication quota that each plot/miniplot must reach?

I'm going to assume that says 'probably in the milk aisle of your local supermarket'. But ours has separate milk and cheese sections, so hah! :V
Actually, "milk duct" initially due to Google Translate's dubious quality, but I quickly edited it to "dairy section" :3
Still says Milch, so hah. :P

So Merrick met Kyle. And Kyle is no longer in France so it's gonna be interesting if he calls the castle.

Fair enough. I'm pretty sure we're all working from pretty much nonexistent backgrounds, so the field's level at least.

Selina was raised by a mother who was barely ever there and had no friends or anyone else to interact with for the first decade and a half or so of her life. Regardless of her personality, she's going to end up feral-ish from simple lack of human contact.

Stop clicking the "NEW" button next to the thread title?
And that's pretty much the only way I ever track threads, so I can't help you past that.

((McDonalds Wi-Fi ftw.
I wonder how long until free wi-fi for customers/visitors becomes the norm.
Or rather, I wonder if we will have switched to some other thing first. Like, devices all linked together via some kind of quantum entanglement thing. Or at least high-speed satellite Internet.

Sadly, quantum entanglement doesn't really work for communications. You can only entangle individual particles, and at that level of precision it's just hard to manipulate them enough for a clear message. Not to mention the difficulty  of separating the entangled particles and then transporting them. Oh, and you can't just entangle any two random particles, it has to be  ones created in the same instant, from the decomposition of another particle.
