Not only that, but whenever I try to start a fun thread for people to engage in, the first week or so will be active, but after that will be as dead as a forest. I have some cool journal ideas, but if it ends up like my previous threads, then what's the point?
I don't expect anyone here to feel sorry for me. Just sort of in a weird mood at the moment. Carry on.

Don't worry about it. MB seems like that for everyone at first, but it just takes awhile to get used to the climate. When I joined, one of the first things I did was get into a fight with a bunch of people because I said that Aerosmith sucked.
You should definitely start a journal, though. Don't try to force yourself to update it every five seconds, or focus purely on getting as many views as possible, because that kind of sets you up for major disappointment. Views come pretty slowly for most journals, and most users won't leave all that much feedback, but that doesn't mean that people aren't enjoying what you're writing. Just write about things that you give a s
hit about, and take it at your own pace, you know?
