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.

Body suspension anyone?

  • Body suspension anyone?

    Ok am I dreaming or do people really do this? I mean they actually pay to have someone put hooks in their bodies and hang them up for 'spiritual' reasons???
    Bunch of psychos...


    What is suspension?
    The act of suspension is hanging the human body from (or partially from) hooks pierced through the flesh in various places around the body.

    There are many different reasons to suspend, from pure adrenaline or endorphin rush, to conquering ones fears, to trying to reach a new level spiritual consciousness and everything in between. In general, people suspend to attain some sort of "experience".

    Some people are seeking the opportunity to discover a deeper sense of themself and to challenge pre-determined belief systems which may not be true. Some are seeking a right of passage or a spiritual encounter to let go of the fear of not being whole or complete inside their body. Others are looking for control over their body, or seek to prove to themselves that they are more than their bodies, or are not their bodies at all. Others simply seek to explore the unknown.

    Many people believe that learning how one lives inside ones body and seeing how that body adapts to stress -- and passes through it -- allows one to surrender to life and explore new realms of possibility. While some people are seeking something spiritual, others are just looking to "do it" and the sense of accomplishment is enough for them.

        I think we should introduce them to this forum. They won't get bored and go hang themselves from hooks anymore. Trust me (no, not because I stopped hanging myself from hooks as soon as I found this forum)!

            Eeeew. There's some guy who actually travels and gives talks and demonstrations of this. I'll try and find his name.
            Someone I know saw a presentation he gave. They all walked into the auditorium and this guy was like hanging there totally nude.
            He'd also gotten cranes and things and hung out of high rises and stuff.
            Weird stuff, definitely.

              Spiritual purposes? Sounds like they are bored. Seriously, what is spiritual about self mutilation?

              I have a rottweiler, Cookie, and she is so cute and not mean at all unless someone makes a motion like they are going to hit any member of my family. She freaks out when she thinks my brother is trying to hit me. It's hilarious. Good dawg. Anyway, otherwise she loves everyone and will lick you to death, not bite you!

                yeah, cause being nude is probably more 'spiritual', lol... Actually I have a picture of a naked man hanging, I don't think it's appropriate to post it here lol but so sick!

                    Once, many years ago, I was flipping channels and happened across a guy getting ready to pick up 2 cinder blocks by some hoops/rings..... that were peirced through his nipples. After he did the trick and the audience was applauding, the announcer goes "give it up for 'Eddie (or something like that, not positive on the name), the crazy Armenian'"! =|

                    Folks....you just can't make this stuff up.....
