I tend to have a hard time posting out of shyness. I can't help but feel like I'm jumping into the middle of a conversation where I'm not wanted, especially when I'm new to a site and don't really know anyone. I'm doing my best to overcome that.

I feel the same, which is why I don't really post in the hangouts lol.

And now I am under 300 donuts needed woohoo!

That's a pretty common feeling when you are new.
But the funny thing is that after you start talking a bit here and there, you start knowing more about the people and soon it's less akward.

Both in forums and in the real world imho.

Random is good. We can randomly talk about the weather lol. That's a basic ice breaker too.

It's been cold and rainy for the last three days. Summer has come and past and it makes me sad. :U

How's that for talking about the weather, lmao.

yeah same, sometimes i wait for someone else to post if i can't respond.

i'm pretty shy irl. online though, i'm a bit more open. xD;; i'll just jump in sometimes.

Glad I'm not alone! I do feel very welcome here, so I think I'll get more comfortable quickly.

Weather-wise, I'm so ready for autumn. Time to break out the sweaters! I'm hoping the heat will die down soon.

Ah, newcomer shyness
Don't we all feel that?

Yeah its starting to cool down here. Its sometimes cooler in the mornings and nights. Sometimes it even goes down to single digits.
