~Lain's 2nd Thread~

[zehly]

Hello, Thread.

Preface
This is my second attempt at starting this thread, and I can only hope and pray (I don't know what I'll be praying to, but I'll pray) that this thread does not get out of control.

The reason my previous thread was deleted is more or less irrelevant at this point, as that thread has been deleted. I can say, though, that it had less to do with flames and more to do with posts involving illegal activities. I take responsibility for the posts that I made, and encourage similar posters to do the same.

I spoke with an Admin about the previous thread moments ago, and after discussing it, was given permission to start a new one, provided that it doesn't spiral out of control, and that it complies with the forum policies and guidelines.

Topic
The topic of this thread, if not self-apparant, has to do with my life. If you are wondering why I would create a thread like that, let me explain.

I have so much stuff that goes on in my life that I like to talk about, e.g. weird questions, odd things happening, etc. that if I were to start a new thread for each one, it would cause a mass power outage. Therefore, for the sake of simplicity and consolidation, I'm choosing to put it all in one thread.

In no way does this topic involve the smiting/flaming/trolling of other posters on this board. No one has the right to do that.

During the course of this thread I understand, and expect, that some of my sub-topics may be extremely happy, or extremely sad, or somewhere in between. I will try my best not to use this thread to post things that would be of great controversy.

So...
Whatever happened in the last thread--to those who were a part of it--is irrelevant. Flamers, Trollers, or what-have-you, all of that is gone, because the thread is gone. This gives everyone the opportunity to post anew in a responsible manner.

Just A Reminder
I want to remind you all that our posts and threads need to comply with the forum rules. If you see a post or thread that you feel is in violation (like flames, trolls, etc.) you should report it to an admin or moderator immediately so that it can be investigated.

Please..
I can understand if you disagree with the nature of this thread. Wait, let me take that back. I do NOT understand why you do. However, I respect your decision, and your right to disagree. However, I consider posts aimed merely to cause chaos in the thread, to be, simply, off topic. So I beseech you to inhibit your possible desires to post spiteful, mean, and unkind things, to me, or to any other poster in this thread, or member of this board.

In conclusion
I want this thread. I need this thread. I want this thread to stay clean, and I need it to, as well. Most of all, I want all the thread-posters to be kind to eachother, and to get along with eachother. At least in this thread. Thank you.

==============================

And to kick this off, I was talking about earlier:

There is this guy in my physics class who has been flirting with me (at least I think it's flirting, I'm not exactly sure about how guys work). The problem is, that (1) I'm not really fond of guys, and (2) I can't even imagine having another relationship. He seems to be a nice person, but I don't want to upset him. What do you think I should do?

Oh, and my real first name is Lain, and I do love the anime series.

Well, you should simply tell him that I am not ready for a relationship at the present time.

[THX]

Unfortunately, there was some confusion at the admin level. This thread will be closed and will remain so. I understand that for some this may be an excellent medium to communicate personal issues with others. However, this is not the right place to do so. The seriousness of personal issues do not mix very well with a gaming environment. To save both of us some unneeded aggravation, I suggest you create your own personal blog.
