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.

        No, intentional self-inflicted shocks of electricity make me very very happy actually, tee-hee

        Anyway, on being shy... it doesn't get you anywhere. I was shy for YEARS and I'd barely even talk to a girl.. the minute I stopped being shy things started looking up for me. However, don't consfuse that with saying tha wrong thing.. anytime you think to yourself "I know, I really shouldn't say this to her..." then don't. Not listening to yourself will get you in trouble.

          Actually, actually, you should say anything you want, and the more that you thnk it'll get you in trouble, all the more reason you should say it. As many times as Hyejinx has been rejected this past week. Don't you think you had mouthed off and been a smartass, because now you know either way it would've resulted the same. However the latter would atleast make u feel self content.

For example If Anonymouse walked into a big ass frat party being thrown by cougars, and mt. lions, he'd xxxx himself and become incredibly shy. On the other hand If he were thrown into a frat party being thrown by wisconsin cheeseheads, he'd be doing keg stands all night.
            Obviously, I'm not going to an extrovert at Church during a wedding. I'll be cool, reserved and respectful.

              First of all, you KNOW that the problem of the last few weeks has nothing to do with being shy.

              Second of all, what I meant are stupid things like "Do you remember me? I'm the guy who lost the butt crack contest!" You should probably remind them of who you are in a different way. That's what I meant by if you know you shouldn't say something, don't say it... I didn't mean with hold anything in particular.

                Like I said, you're goal shouldn't be what they will think of you, you're goal is what you think of yourself. Who cares about girls, or anyone else period? Just say whatever you want to say, be cokky, funny, and confident. Don't over analyze during the situation, then you start to think of "what can I say?" or "what can't I say?" If you can't get passed that, then you're obviously someone who very much cares about what others think of them.

                  Arguing this is stupid, much like most arguements are on this forum. Don't act as though first impressions don't mean anything. I can joke around and call my girlfriend a bia-atch (in a playful manner of course) once we're comfortable with each other, but I certainly wouldn't say that to a girl I just met. Are you seriously telling me I should go up to a girl and be like "BIA-ATCH! Can I get your number?" when I really don't think it's the right thing to say? don't argue just to argue, this doesn't even have anything to do with being shy per se, we're just dragging the thread further and further off topic.

                    You obviously don't speak from experience. No one is "dragging" anything, and no one is "arguing". It's all in the mental construct of your mind. You obviously give a rats ass what females think of you. That is where all your problems emanate from, although you will deny and get defensive with me, that is the case. But all I am doing is giving my personal advice. You don't have to like it or take it, nor respond. If you do, great. I know it might appear stupid and silly, and it might not make sense, but that is the way it goes. Women don't respond to what you are advocating, to 'niceness'. They want to feel that powerful, magical, all important emotion called attraction! You can be a jerk, but not an a hole. You can be a gentlemen, but not a pansy. They don't feel that with shy guys, guys who are not confident, or who give a shyt what others think, or guys who act with restraint when under different situations.

                      Well

                      I think that it's partially due to the person's personality, partially to the the environment you were exposed to, and partially due to your age.

                      I agree that you shouldn't think about what people are going to think of you. But that doesn't mean you should treat them like crap, to show to them that you don't care. I don't agree with mouse about blabbing without thinking.

                      It's so distasteful.




                      It's good to be apprehensive. It's always in your favor in the long-run. Just as long as you don't let it control you.

                      Shakespeare wrote, "What a piece of work is a man--in apprehension, how like a god!

                      ...and Shakespeare knows his stuff!
