Hey guys, do you think I should try and start a blog? I might do it, but I feel very intimidated and shy in doing it, and also because I’m not sure what to expect, and how to run it.

It becomes a complex question, but only as it seems you may have your own reservations.

If you think you might enjoy it, then you absolutely should. At the very worst you find you don't enjoy as much as you thought you might, and at that point you don't need to continue.

If you think it would be more like forcing yourself to do it, then you probably shouldn't.

In terms of the shy factor, it's definitely a bit like putting yourself out there - but to me this seems an extremely kind and welcoming community, so that really helps!

Not exactly a direct answer, but those are my whole two-cents~

I thought the same as you and even up until now I sometimes feel I am annoying or perhaps boring people but I have found its nice to put my thoughts and experiences down as I don't always have people to talk to about it in person all the time.

Go for it bro, get a camera and post some stuff too, its always nice to see mortals playing, especially people playing similar styles to me :up:
Having a YouTube is nice too

Interesting way to start a blog with immediate audience engagement. Welcome to royal and ancient order of odd fellow bloggers.

Next comes the secret handshake (grip :) ).
