I will admit that I found the place intimidating. :) And it didn't help that I was a brand new Discord user! My first week on Steemit, TWB was recommended to me and so I downloaded Discord and joined, and I didn't even know how to leave the welcome room... finally realised there were other rooms listed on the side, and even though they had a padlock on them I could apparently click into them. And by that time I felt it was too late to say "hello!" and the chatter I saw in there did nothing to put me at ease. I lurked for a bit, feeling more and more intimidated each time I saw people talking, and then stopped lurking altogether. Group chats make me feel awkward at the best of times, but all of that... it was hard. Thanks for sharing your experience. It's good to know that I wasn't the only one getting those vibes! And that they've since been addressed.

Thank you for commenting and sharing your experience. Discord chats can totally make you feel like the new kid staring at a group of friends. How do you jump in and say something? It feela awkward at the best of times! I hope you come back and try again!
