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.

      Giving Baron a pat on the back for cracking a wise one, doesn't mean we've learned anything.

        However, I doubt bruin has been going around dating random guys.

        Very good... her conclusions are based on a sample of convenience which is biased.

            It is possible. One of my best friends did it. She had two kids as an undergrad, finished her BA, MA, and is now working on her PhD at UCSB and her kids are 3 and 5.

              What if we try and fit this to Bruin's views...

              Actor-Observer effect (a bias we all have)

              We make external attributions to explain our behaviors and internal attributions to explain those of other.

              Ex: If Sally trips and drops all her books it's because she's clumsy.
              If I trip and drop my books it's because the sidewalk was uneven.

              She doesn't want to recognize that there was probably more to why a date or relationship was a failure... it's easier on our egos to blame the other person. Couple that with unwarranted generalization and VIOLA!

                ah ha!! i see it now! i do remember reading about that theory in an undergrad psych class...yeah, but i'm not arrogant to believe that i am flawless and that it's "all them"(the guys)...we are ALL imperfect creatures; rather i have come to the conclusion that there might be a subconscious element involved here on my part which seeks out this type (WITHOUT ME REALIZING OR UNDERSTANDING WHY??) or?? a case of "opposites attracting" where the selfish guy seeks the caring girl (hate to use adjectives to describe mysefl) ~~ it might very well be a combination of the two

                  No guy is perfect. Its hard to get out of the habit of looking for minor flaws and faults and making them into huge deals.
                  It's also hard not to be skeptical when you've been hurt. I used to look for a reason not to like someone i met or want to be friends even because I didn't want to get hurt again. You miss out on so much when you do that.

                  I'm not saying not to be cautious or to turn a blind eye, but don't dismiss a guy without giving him a chance because of someone else's mistakes.

                    I've hired this guy to destroy this stupid thread. I can only hope he will succeed.
