I mostly lurk, and I don't feel like I'm afraid of making a comment. But now that I think about it, there have been quite a few times where I've started to reply, then thought "that's stupid" and just deleted the comment. Of course I've been doing that on a lot of sites as of late, so it may not be intimidation from hubski so much as it is me finally realizing I'm stupid.

realizing your ideas are stupid is the first step to having better ideas. Sure, you'll still have stupid ideas, but your filter gets better and you can weed out the real shiners while focusing on the good ones. Don't be afraid to be wrong, just be prepared and excited for someone to correct you, so that you can learn something new.
