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.

    your right in the age where we stay up until 2 am chatting online. And kids live in small little dorm rooms and crappy food. The essence of life has been stolen from us. It's time we rebel.

YOU GUYS NEED TO SLEEP. Get rid of all distraction, noise, light, and everything else you can to get your butts to bed! 6-8 hours of sleep per day means that you'll have enough energy to go through your day without yawning or rubbing your eyes...Here are some tips for sleep:

      warm milk(or so I've heard..>I'm lactose intolerant)
      leave your window open for a cool breeze..
      for the girls-take off your bra, and panties (if necessary)
      turn off your phones
      let your mind relax just for that moment
      concentrate on your breathing
      vicodin
      sex
      masturbation

      i just have insomina. i have stress problems.

          Pardon my French but according to my English dictionary, "caughing" is spelled "coughing".

              This is a thread created by me, so if you're going to correct someone's spelling, please don't waste a post....PM them. Thanks

                sex
                masturbation
                Funny - (as well as good advice!) - love your list ...last two in particular spoke to me! Yeah - I'm one who often has difficulty sleeping...and there are times (in fact a great deal of the time...even now...) where I can't sleep unless I've had sex...or at least xxxxxxxxxx (but sex is certainly the preferred! - and normally more [single dose! lol] effective!)...otherwise I'm just too wound up - what can I say...Ok - having a few drinks can help sometimes...but even then - sometimes that doesn't even help - and in fact I'm often one to jump up shortly after sex with lots of energy and want to go out and ride a bike or play some basketball or such (or have more sex! - though certainly less able right away now that I'm older...still I do on occasion surprise...)...and even as old as I am and as many years as I've gone with less sleep then I should - I'm still doing Ok - and I can still stay awake and function adequatly for days without sleep when I want to - or just when...etc (not good in a sense I know...but what can one do?)

                anyway aches and pains...well I'm an old guy so you probably don't want to get me started...though I'm actually doing pretty well at the moment...nothing major...and speaking of headaches/migranes and such - I used to get terrible migranes as a teenager...but they wen't away and no longer have bothered me since in my early 20s! Still I occasionally get nasty sinus headaches as I have allergies and had a bout with sinus infections a number of years ago (once with headaches so bad [for months - every day] I had a CAT scan for it - what did it show? Yeah severe sinus infection! lol)

                ...other stuff - well (3 1/2 years ago) I almost died from a very nasty intestinal infection - it burst actually! - very nasty...well several operations later I'm pretty much back to normal (though missing a few feet of intestines!)...some scars I tell ya!

                I also have a hole in the retina of one eye - right in the center - its considered a macula degeneration problem - though it was caused by impact playing sports. It is directly in the center of my vision and caused me problems for some time - the harder I tried to focus onsomething the worse it got. I learned to just ignore it -and my vision has closed around it so I actually see great now (OK with glasses - but thats nothing new...) - my eye doctor - a specialist who normally sees only old people and professional atheletes said he thought my self-healing was one in a million!

                I also have had surgery on the knucklebone of my big toe (maybe 7-9 years ago - don't remember). I had broken it and it didn't heal properly - became arthritic and very very excruciatingly painful. Surgeon removed my cartilage and induced scar tissue formation - only had 25% left anyway (so I was essentially bone on bone!) - said he was giving me 5 years and would then probably have to fuse it - well - I have pretty much full mobility and it hardly ever pains me (though on occasion - cold weather and overuse - playing basketball or such...still mostly OK) - yeah - going strong! - i'm a very fast healer in general.

                Another recent problem I've had is with my other foot - the ankle & heal specifically. I twisted my ankle under me early last summer. I thought I had broken my ankle - it was that bad - swelled up like a grapefruit for a few days then went away - so I thought OK - my body has taken care of it - as usual....well a few weeks later my achillies tendon was noticibly sore and weak...I couldn't play basketball and it bothered me otherwise (walking, cutting the lawn etc)...so I kept off it for a while - and by last fall thought OK - better now - well wrong again - when I play basketball or walk or run much - my heal hurts like heck (mostly the next day) - and its difficult to walk on...so still not fully healed - it was a nasty one...so we're working on it...(but I am back to playing basketball and tennis at least...with pain - but pain is part of life...you'll come to realize this..)

                Oh and how could I forget - I have a severely herniated disc in my lower back. Yeah - very nasty. Again though my body has amazed the experts. One nuerosurgeon from Georgetown med looked at my MRIs and said I shouldn't be walking. Well - luckily my best friend is an outstanding chiropractor who has worked on me for hours and hours - plus they found that my spinal colomn is nearly twice as large as (you regular) human beings! - couldn't help it with that one...yeah...but I am old(er) - and about that age when nasty things start happening. I'm in better physical shape then most - recently did a stress test where the doctor said I was about the most cardio vascurly fit 40+ year old she had ever tested...but I need to lose some weight and my triglicerides are way up (good living...too good!) (even though other stuff not so bad)...still avoiding the meds...I don't take a thing..unlike many old(er) folks - popping their daily pills - etc...I don;t want that....

                not too long was it?

                    i have found that what works best for sleep deprevation is that i will just stay up and do things until my body just cant handle it anymore...

                    and usually those nights i sleep the best!

                    but yes violet those last two actually do help! and even the third item and yes it is necessary... "surprise surprise!"
