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.

Another problem with blown out models is the repetition and duplication.

      God, I'm such a nerd.

      For myself, I'd rather feel than qualify. The perfect romantic match for me is a best friend [a person you'd never want to leave because you'd miss her presence too much] that you'd also like to get naked.
      no wonder you're already married!

        I thought that it was about "non-physical" attributes? But I understand that one can argue that "sexy" is not necessarily a "physical" quality.

        Two days ago, I was at a cafe when someone started projecting text on the building across the street. Parts of text were not legible. One of them said something like - as much as I remember:
        "Sex is a curtain
        because love is sacred
        Love is not celebrated only with the gift of sex
        It is celebrated with flowers...and kisses
        That are not meant for any pretty face
        But yours alone
        .....
        Because love is sacred
        It speaks in deeper language
        ........
        Sex is a a curtain
        That is opened by love"

        ...
        God, I'm such a nerd.
        First of all, I would not use the word "model" and prefer the words "collection" or "list;" a model is meant to suggest - and imply - a sort of underlying coherence or consistence; a collection is loose by essence. I would not subsumed humans - maybe adult males??? - with a model.
        Also, each - at least most - attribute in the list above is vague and ambiguous enough to even consider thinking about the "validity of such [a] model."
        LOL Yes, you're a nerd!

        The relative vagueness and ambiguity - i.e. fuzziness - of the attributes makes it difficult to assess the overlap between two attributes. It would be (almost???) impossible to prove or disprove the orthogonality - or "independence" as meant in Mathematics - of the attributes.
        They are meant to be felt not assessed. It's about poetry not science.

        As for "not feminist" and "defends her rights," personally, I don't see any contradiction. Do you see any contradiction between "defends the rights of the proletariat/poor" and "non communist/socialist?" I don't.

        Feminism has become a struggle about the role(s) of women in a Society, not her rights. Feminism has become a caricature of masculinity.

        In that case, please try to feel the poetry; don't try to assess and validate the model!

          Dangit, I forgot to read the manual to Siamanto's Ultimate Lover List. I can see it was the wrong thing to do.
          Thanks for corrections .
          So when is v. 2.0 coming out?
          Can't wait.

            You're welcome! I thought that it would be the correct thing to do! You have "corrected" me and because - as you say - one should be thankful when "corrected," I thought that I should be thankful by "correcting" you!
            Just curious, do you always perceive as corrections, the expression of an opinion different than yours - or should I say the expression of the "Ultimate Truth?"
            I feel so happy that the concept and feeling are foreign to my mindset! :

            Some more "corrections!"
            - My comments apply to any quality describing a human - woman or man, friend or lover, young or old!
            - It was not about what is the "Ultimate Lover List." It was about "What drives you to make a relationship you are in last? " In other words, personal preferences. Actually, most of what is mentioned in my list may - and is by many - considered as undesirable.

            Has there been another version of the 10 commandments? No!

                If "romantic" is not your style, would you prefer?

                  Too romantic is not my style... but neither is anger or rest of the stuff you posted.

                      Thank you...and I'm not being sarcastic!
                      You probably relate to the woman in the verbal painting that is the list. I hope that someone will be nuanced and refined enough to notice it, and have the courage to appreciate and enjoy it.

                      I hope that she won't grow up too much, otherwise she would cease from being playful, lose her dreams and soul.
                      I sometimes say: "Why converse with the woman that you are when I can't play with the child in you?"
