Kinda new, Painfully shy

[ToonSkribblez]

I've been lurking around Steam for a couple of weeks (maybe even a month) but I've been too nervous to go on the forums.
I would like to play more games but some of them require me to go online and interact with other players, which sends my social anxiety into overdrive.
I was sort of hoping someone could be my friend and help me overcome my shyness.
Or maybe I just don't belong here and I've wasted everyone's time with this stupid discussion.

I'd really like to give TF2 a try. It looks like lots of fun.

Yep. Though you probably need a experienced player to guide you through.

Also, there's no reason to be shy on the forums.

I'm a bit nervous about asking for a guide.

Welcome to the forums! I was also a bit shy and stuff when i first joined steam but now i have many friends who likes to chat with me occasionally and i love online multiplayer games like TF2. I think you should not have a private profile like Creasy allready told you. No one really trusts private profiles beacause there are lots of trolls and scams and other stupid stuff but its easy to avoid all those weird creeps. If you are going to start playing TF2 you can add me and send me messages anytime if you need help or don't undestand something. Maybe i could help you. TF2 is really fun game to play online and everyone is usually really nice. :)
(sorry if bad english i'm finnish :P)

Alright I changed my status to friends only. I had it on private cuz, like I said before, I'm really shy.

Dude, don't worry about being shy. 90% of the guys here are really nice. Plus it makes it alot easier to figure out problems with games by posting on forums.

[GAMMIN]

Aww! You can talk to me if you want!

Welcome, we don't bite...too much.

Hi there & welcome to the Steam forums :)

I can honestly say that the Steam community is one of the friendliest gaming communities I have been a part of. Sure there are some bad apples, but you’ll find them wherever you go.

Games like CS:GO & Dota2 used to intimidate me too, but after playing some you’ll realise most people are friendly enough to except you’re new to these games and still learning the ropes & are happy to help you along the way.

TF2 is a great one to dive into – it’s easy to pick up and the objectives are straight forward and it’s just a fun game to play!

I would also second what Creasy said - having an open profile just looks more welcoming.

Welcome to Steam!! Give TF2 a go, it's good fun :)

Also, No need to be shy, 95% of people are nice, the odd ♥♥♥♥ in the mixture though!

Happy gaming!

Holy crap. This is the highest friend thread that I've seen.
