I definitely think you should post your DW thoughts more! Even if others talk about it more eloquently, that doesn't mean you shouldn't share your opinions with your flist! I'd want to read them!
I drunkenly complained about Moffat to my friends last night. They don't watch DW. But I also squeed about how they have to watch DW because RTD is a genius and he writes strong female characters and he created Captain Jack Harkness... I think my exact words about Jack were that RTD created a DW spinoff with the first very main character played by an openly gay man. And he's an omnisexual action hero! One of my friends was like "Was that the show with James Marsters and the kissing!" And, while he's never watched it, we squeed about the awesomeness of that.
I love how RTD and almost everyone involved in the show ship Doctor/Rose obsessively.
I love vidding too. I get stuck a lot and I'm insecure about all my videos, except like two, one because I think the timing and everything was flawless and the other because it got put up on this exclusive-ish Lost vidding site when they were rejecting almost every other Charlie/Claire video because way too many people were submitting them. Oddly, both are lost videos. Anyway, my problem is I think my vids are too generic and obvious and too similar to everyone else's, you know? And I lost almost all of the videos I made during my first year vidding thanks to the disc I saved them on getting scratched! And, then, some of my Farscape vids were burned to DVD but that's the one DVD that won't let me rip from it! I'm complaining way too much.
I have to go watch all your DW videos and comment about what I think. And I should upload some of my favorite videos of my own for my flist... Make like a master post or something. I'm too insecure to share most of them with anyone but I used to be a very prolific vidder.
I can't write fanfic and I make horrible graphics... But I understand exactly what you mean about vidding being your main creative outlet because it is really creative and, yeah, it's the one creative thing I can do, even if I don't do it that well... Yeah, now that I have a good internet connection, I'm off to procrastinate with the studying and upload a few of my favorite videos!
