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.

    I can see that perfectly fine, but thanks for pointing it out. Maybe I shouldn't have said validation, but a reaction. Although, after all, my reaction is validating his existance, so my stance still stands.

      Yeah, I bet he's far more assured of his existence now that you've verified it for him. Perhaps the better question is why all of you are so hell-bent on showing that he isn't narcissistic. I kind of get the feeling he is just sitting back laughing at your reactions and isn't even all that serious. I mean, come on, he's preaching like he's the Billy Graham of narcissism. Why are you taking him so seriously?

        Dude (I hope you're a dude, but my appologies if you're a dudette and I was mistaken), who said anything about taking him seriously? Apparently, you haven't been here long enough, but do enjoy your stay.

          Your stance still stands, flame girl? Very eloquently put. I can even hear your terribly sexy accent if I try hard enough.

          You guys are both missing the point. The true narcissist operates independently of outside validation. Validation is certainly nice to have, but it's irrelevant to the true narcissist. The true narcissist spends most of his time alone, and indeed can often be less happy in social surroundings, though certainly no one will be happy by himself all the time. The true narcissist is fully self-assured, but will still welcome the assurance of others. In fact, the true narcissist should be quick to give assurance to others, but more than that, he should try to foster the same self-assuredness in them that he possesses himself. The true narcissist will be giving of his narcissism and will promote the qualities that make him a narcissist in those that he loves.

          Now flames, I like you, a lot. It does not, however, make all that much of a difference to me whether or not you like me. I assumed you did, because you seem pleasant enough when with me or when talking to me, but perhaps I am wrong. This is beside the point, though. As long as you behave in a pleasant manner toward me, and I enjoy your company, then I will continue to like you, for the true narcissist will like anything that makes him feel good, regardless of why it does so.

            The true narcissist will welcome the attempts of others to bring him down or to debunk his narcissism, for indeed this does provide validation in the form of attention. In fact, simply by being narcissistic, the true narcissist has made himself the center of attention, and all of the ugly persons (flames, you're not included here - you might look like a little girl, but you're still gorgeous) coming in to tear down his narcissism have only made themselves pawns in the narcissists arsenal, by which he may further boost his own narcissism.

              One thing's for sure though - you crack me up.

                If I can bring a smile to your face, even if I must utterly degrade myself, I am happy.

                  A good narcissist will feel pity that he can't marry himself.

                    A good narcissist will attempt to make out with himself in the mirror, followed by an exclamation of, "but it's not the same!"

                      A good narcissist will be angry when he goes to a funeral, that he isn't the corpse.
