I start rambling about the first topic that comes to my head. If I can't think of a topic, I pull out my ukulele and start playing a song.

But it I find if I keep rambling on about SOMETHING (especially if it's relatable to members) someone is bound to join in eventually.

Or they'll at least pause and say to themselves, "wow, how long can this girl go on for?!" and they might stick around or say hi out of curiosity

Some simple topics for next time you panic: food/drink, travel, holiday traditions, pets, your favorite website to shop online, your favorite hobbies, a tv show or movie you were really excited to see, what you did this weekend, what you want to do next month, what sales you have going on...

When all else fails, spam your chat room with promotions. Hype them up!

I make fun of myself....and am honest about it.

Being yourself is endearing...at least on MFC where it is a more social site.

Maybe keep a notepad close by with a list of things that a) you feel members might be interested in talking about, and b) you feel confident talking about, even if means you essentially holding a one-sided conversation on this subject until someone else joins in. If you panic, just look to your notepad and pick a subject. Can be anything... TV, films, music, games, books, food, holiday plans, sex stuff, work, school, whatever.

If you are afraid to go online, you can use this as an opportunity.

I had same problem. Fear made me forget how to perform. It did not matter how much I practice. When time came to perform, fear made me forget what I knew how to do.

So, I stopped practicing. Instead I start putting myself into the situation that made me afraid. My goal was not to do well. My goal was to practice dealing with this fear.

"I am panicking and I don't know what to say to you guyyyyyysssssssss!"

This is probably the best thing to ssay when you are afraid and don't know what to say.

Free internet advice. It is worth what you have paid for it.
