Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    Originally posted by Emil I don't know if it's disgust or fear. We had a mouse in our garage 3 months ago, till I set a trap and now it's in mouse heaven. I was ok with picking up the shoe box the trap was in and throwing it away. I don't think I could grab one or touch one with my bare hands.
    Well, I won't touch a lot of things, but it doesn't mean that I fear them. I mean yea, some things are disgusting, while others are not clean/safe to touch, but I don't fear them. If I knew that no harm would come of it, I would touch a mouse. You won't get me to touch a spider though, hehe.

      I got a real big fear of heights. Everytime I'm on a high rise lookin out the window, I get really scared and panic. I don't know how I can fly in a plane, since the last time I flied was when I was 6/7.

      I also have a natural disgust regarding blood or anything red. Yuck.

            Where do our phobias stem from? Is it nature or nurture?

            And Hogg, I'm not sure what you mean.

              well, i had a grasshopper jump on me once, and ever since, i freak out whenever i see anything remotely similar to grasshoppers. I used not to be afraid of ladybugs, but now they disgust me, especially if they're all over the place when the weather gets warmer.

              but i've always hated insects in general. and spiders are just... eww.. i don't know ... it's weird. i don't really know how i got to be freaked out by them.. but i'd probably freak out more if i see an insect than i would if i see a lion lol..

                Now that you mention it, grasshoppers don't really bother me either. I guess I only freak out about insects I'm not familiar with, with the addition of spiders, c0ckroaches, and the like.

                  well, i'm mostly referring to the long and green type of grasshopers, the ones that are paper thin.. have you seen those? They're HUGE. UGH. *shudder*

                  yeah, c0ckroaches (love the word filter, btw ) too.. lol.. i have funny stories about each one of them, the funniest of which was having a spider on the table i was sitting at in the lecture hall haha...
