I think it depends on the writer and the character. The character can be shy and quiet and get nothing, understandable. But if the writer complains on the fact they dont get anything for any reason, including that of the shyness, then I think they should roll out something new. Put up a thread to show they are shy, pimp out some lines for family and those that they wouldnt be shy around or what have you. But agreeing with the above, it takes time and effort. You just have to be willing to do it, or you will have nothing.
