Honestly if it becomes boring for you, you can take an alternative course, a new venture to add that spice to it. More like investing somewhere else, like a different market entirely.
Seriously, Do people need welcome on Forum also. Forum is for discussion, if you have problem share it.
You know people vary, and if some don't get that sense of belonging they get nervous and unnecessarily withdrawn.
Just share you problem or your points, it is good to start with hi, hello, But you should also share what you actually want here.
