"This is an interactive drama, so don’t be shy to participate." does this sentence make sense?

Asked by shelly33 (7points) May 17th, 2014

I get what the person is trying to say but it seems kind of weird though I can’t put my finger on it…

Idiomatically, it’s ”...don’t be shy about participating.”

It makes no sense whatsoever standing by itself.

Sounds like they accidentally left some words out. “Don’t be too shy to participate.”

Its another way of saying “If you won’t participate, why are you even here?”
