Is it wrong to think this site is boring?

[ProGoddess]

I'm rather odd in that I don't like chat platforms or instant
messaging, because trying to maintain a real-time conversation
via keyboard with someone I have never met in real life simply
makes me nervous.

It's a shame, really. I joined a platform called IMVU awhile back
which is a 3D chat client, but I can rarely muster the courage to
jump into one of the (very well designed) chat-rooms and
just start conversing with people. It's like picking up the phone
and dialing some random number and making myself converse
with whoever picks up the other end. So, I wind up using my
avatar to create fanciful head-shots for Facebook and/or
forum profile pics.

With forums like this, one has time to formulate a response, and
those responses aren't expected to arrive immediately. Far less
stress for the likes of me.

I share the same sentiment as you.

Forum seems to be a better choice for me as I usually don't know what to say in a chat with a bunch of strangers. Most of the time, those chats are just random talking with not much quality in the conversation.

Though having said that, it may well be suited for some others who enjoy talking in a chatbox. For personal reference, a forum would be able to offer more constructed and formulated topics, with extras like references, quotes, etc, to make a topic more interesting. Hence more meaningful and enjoyable. It is also a way for more in depth sharing and fellowship.

So far, I have enjoyed myself here.

It would depend on what a person is looking for in a forum. Some may prefer to talk freely with everyone else in idle chats, while others may prefer a forum style of communication.

In this forum here, it has both which can cater for both sides. The site even has a function which allows members to write their own blog. This is something not all forum has. Pretty nice.
