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.

          most of the time... when you're majoring in something in undergrad school, you can't really find a decent job that is related to your major with only a bachelor's degree. you need to get some grad work done so that you could get your dream job... I think.
          and plus...I think it's sort of a crime when people start working mon-fri 8-5 in their early or even mid twenties...
          I tried it for one summer and almost killed myself.
          we're gonna be working weekdays /at least 8 hours a day our whole lives. but you're only gonna be "in your twenties" for ten short years.
          unless you have your own business and it's going AWESOME for you... or you work for NASA or the penthagon and you're making crazy amounts of money you should not be having a full time "behind a desk" job.

          OK some of you are misunderstanding me. I like my job just fine, that's not what I'm talking about.

          And what's more boring that grad school?? I'm not in the mood to be learning what I just learned all over again for 4 more years. If I do go back to school it would be to learn something different.

            Grad school is a good idea, but you have to realize that grad school sometimes requires even more work than a regular nine to five job, on top of which you still have to work to make some money to live on.

            As for the 'behind a desk job' not all jobs are like that, and you can make plenty of money even if you dont work for nasa or the pentagon.

              I read a book in this class I had when I was an undergrad called Quarterlife Crisis. It pretty much put into words exactly how I was feeling. A little overwhelmed and freaked out about not having the structure/schedule of going to class (or not) and sleeping in and being out late, etc, etc. And also a little bit wondering what's next, like why did I waste 4 years of my life studying something I will have to study for 3 more (or even more) years if I want to get a job I can make enough money doing so that I can make a life with someone eventually. And, of course, that opens the whole other, holy crap everyone either has a bf/gf, is engaged, or starting to get married left and right and I feel like I'm the only one not, and so on and so forth.... You have to get through it. Like everyone said, get a hobby, go out, spend time with friends, spend time with your gf, get to know new people, go out and do things outside, enjoy having the time to do whatever the heck you please after work, because someday you're going to have to come home to responsibilities and family and you can't really just go off and be yourself at that time. I guess you just have to grin and bear it. Yes, sometimes you think it's all just a waste of time, doing the same damn thing in school, then having to go to school again to do the same damn thing, only to get sucked into a job where you do the same damn thing around the same damn people. It's life. Having a job you love to go to is the best way to ease the pain of the repetativeness of it all. I don't want to crawl out of bed early in the mornings either but I love my job so at least once I've resigned myself to waking up, the rest of the day is much easier. You can't do whatever you like, you have to like whatever you do.... Good luck! And anyway you can always b!tch on the forum...
