I suppose so.
I like the look of the Knuffels but I prefer talking to people and dressing up my avatar.

I don't know if I would have been as active in the forum's as I am now if I had found this place after the gen knuffels were released.
In the beginning I was so focused on getting orientated. :}

Well, I know when I was a newbie I felt a bit out of place in threads which had a couple of people chatting, and who had clearly known each other for a while!
So back then I was a lurker ><
Took me a year to start chatting to people on here~

Don't forget if you click on the members list and then click the thing that says join date, it'll give you the newest of the members first.
So we can actually send welcome pm's and trades and things that way.

Man, I chat with everyone.
Hmm.
I suppose that's an option, but it seems a little up front to me. Like coming on a little too strong?

Which can scare users off as well
Finding that balance is hard, since it's different for everyone

Chatting with people scares them off?
I can see if someone is just overloading you.

People can definitely be afraid of big convos, but unlike other threads where you have to just jump in, this thread you can post your hello with your form and then poof until you get welcomed and have something to reply to.

We make it open to anyone to jump in and get to know us.
That last part made me sound like the ghost of christmas present in the muppets Christmas carol. :}
