any lurkers who are too scared to post?

i noticed that the ratio of the # of views to the # of replies is a lot greater here than it is in other forums and i was just wondering how many of you read discussions but never contribute, not just because you're a newbie?

just creating this thread was very difficult for me. It took about twenty minutes for me to type this. I had to type it in my notepad first for practice because it's just as hard for me to put my thoughts into written words as it is for me to talk to someone in real life. Is anyone else like this?

Yes... it's a big production for me to post too, but I do post sometimes. I don't think I have the guts to start a thread yet. good job :wink:

I'm mostly lurking here. I just found this website a couple days ago. Most of the time, what I want to say has already been said.

I used to be a lurker :cry: I still get kinda nervous posting, I feel like no one cares what I have to say.

I admit that i somtimes go months with out posting because i either talk my self out of replying or someone else has already said what i was going to say.

I too didn't want to create this account because other people often say what I wanted to say. Wait, this has been said 2 times in this thread already, so why am I typing this? :lol: I guess people just have the compulsion to express their opinion even though noone cares. :wink:
