I mean it does improve your odds. It's like playing a game, you have to boot up the program, click/press start and play the game. You might suck at the game, it might take you years to get where you want in it but this is the only way it can be played. No mods or hacks.
That isn't to say go play the game, but crying for what it has and not engaging in it is as stupid as you can get.

Keep in mind any group you join you'll just be a fridge element at first for a good bit and will need to play along. I've seen a lot of men and women get too inside their head and try and impress or force connections that just cause them trouble. The ones that work out are usually the ones that just shadow the group and learn. Seems to be a irl "Lurk more" kind of formula.
