I want to jump headfirst into this event, but I feel like I have nothing to say. I keep looking at all the other threads and wishing I had something to offer. Maybe it's because I'm tired, but I have yet to post anything! x_x

Anyway, come talk to me. Are you having similar issues? Too shy? Too nervous? Too boring? ^_^;; Let's chat before I pass out.

The only time I feel like I'm really active is around events. I was quite active during the Phoenix Jubilee and for a while after it but then I sort of faded out again. Now that there's an event I'm like "Yay! Wait...where do I start?!" ^_^;;

Well - no one should be nervous about posting. XD But I'll be on for a bit longer and don't mind chatting. :3 If I can answer any questions, I'd be happy to help anyone too! :heart:

No one should be nervous, because Mene is awesome, but it happens. It's like stage fright, but it's post fright. The same social anxieties just pop up and it's easy to talk yourself out of posting sometimes >_> I just needed a starting point. Now I draw you all in. Mwa ha ha ^_^;;

That's exactly it. Everyone's already talking about something and if you go back a few pages, by the time you catch on, they might be on something else. It's complicated sometimes.

I'm enjoying the event but it's hard to just jump in on threads. I tend to be a lurker at the best of times because I'm pretty shy, so this event is a little difficult.

I have the same problem x.x
Today I have so big problems with jumping into conversation >.>
I even made a thread but, oh well, I guess it will die.

I'm too boring to add anything to a discussion...I think that means my posts could be described as senseless spam. x.x;

XD At least this is a thread to talk about having nothing to say? ::laughs:: That's why I mostly stick to the Sticky events that move slower... My Fantastic Feast is moving pretty slowly! And I can't help but spend time in the FAQ (answering questions when you know the answers is easy) and I can leave comments on some of the talent-related contests...

Finding regular chat threads is a little more difficult... so I tend to go towards the ones that are infromation-y (like the "Item Preview" sort of threads - like you ran during Phoenix Jubilee. X3 ) or "what is your favorite event item/event common". Because I can give information there too, or drop my own opinions and comment on the opinions of others. :3

Regular chat threads depends on me finding one that moves slowly enough for me to keep up and not so slowly that I forget that I'm chatting in it. >___>;

vadeil: I think that's one of the best ways to get talking, just start your own thread, then you're the one directing traffic ^_^;; Everyone else has to catch up with you.

Donna: Stay here and bore us darling. We all seem to have not enough to say. How was your day?

Sirocco: See, caught in my web of nothing to say!

CK: The way chat threads move is pretty intimidating. And keeping track of multiples is just hard. It's a lot of work to be a social butterfly! I'll just put out some pretty flowers to attract some butterflies. ^__^

We had so many new events we wanted to try... we had to cut some of our 'usuals' from the roster. XD; There are probably too many events as it is. @_@; It was a real struggle to let the avatar contest go - but we would totally encourage users to make their own. :3

I'm all over the place thoughtwise so even in my own thread I'd probably get lost. I'd probably resort to making some comment about a purple slurpee drinking elephant in a tutu and kill the thread by scaring people away.

But CK, I have become lurker! D:
I have nothing to say anymore. ;-;

Cookie, my day was rather like myself. XD;
But the event cheered me up. Something new and different in my tedious life. ^^

Don't worry, I scare people away even without saying strange comments XD

@Cookie: Haha, yup XD
So how is your day? :3

Donna: You know, don't complain about boring days. My last few "exciting" days involved police reports being filled out. So thank your lucky stars that it's boring and you're not stuck with some crazy unwanted excitement D=

Sirocco: Not very fun. I had to work and it was slow and boring. Maybe tomorrow I can sneak on Mene >_> How bout you?
