Tenshi

I love your topic especially the accurate & brief detailing. My mother & best friend have sinusitis, my mom due to the dander from my dogs (not an allergy just irritability) and my best friend due to the weather. After we shifted to my current home, i had sinusitis for a few months but it all went away after I started nasal irrigation. Vick's vapor rub and steam therapy helps but it is temporary... Well it was in my case, it was nasal irrigation that got my sinusitis off my back

I am sure that there is just some misunderstanding... Maybe you forgot to add some details or something (Don't bash me if you did.. It's just a thought). I sent in a ticket a few days ago when I had joined, they replied to my ticket in 3 hours which I consider excellent. Why not send an email to their Head mentioning the support technician who keeps asking you the same details over and over. Did you make a topic about the problem you were facing? that should help especially since you are a paid member. I have seen many topics where members have mentioned their ticket ids along with their problems & they have usually been solved immediately. So my suggestion? Send an email to the Head of support, make a topic about the problem mentioning the staff member who is annoying you AND the ticket ids.

YAY. SOMEONE RESPONDED *jumps in the air* .. Thank you :lol:Well I was thinking of something in the lines of :-1. First we post about the genres we read/don't read depending on which is more... Like me for an example, I am happy to read anything but usually don't read a sci-fi book unless it is recommended.2. The first book will be the genre with the most votes...3. We each read the book and post before, during & after the book.. If we read a book on let's say James Herriot, the reader can post what he expects, what he finds interesting and what he liked/ disliked about it... I make the posting flexible instead of a meeting because of the timezones and lifestyles...4. The second book onwards it will be recommended so that everyone reads a genre they have not tried or read least about...5. Most of the times books are available on the internet but if a book is not available in the market or on the internet, we can put the book on hold or members can write about parts they liked about the book...I do not have to visit bookstores because my Uncle collects books on my behalf and lets me borrow them go to promo.net/pg and let me know if you read any of the books... They let you download their e-books for free and they are awesome :XD:

Thank you jlhaslip for the Rules but the problem is that I am a noob when it comes to signatures :XD: . And I do not think it would look good if I pasted the requirements with "Anything goes" written next to each line... But If it is compulsory, below are the requirements for my signature :-Size: Any size that the forum approves Theme: No grungeRender: If you want...Render Theme: Animals, Books or anything you likeColor: Cheerful colors, if dark not too darkText: Optional (The artist can add the tag "designed by *forum name*" if they want )Other effects: n/aIf there is anything else I need to add, please let me know...

Hi,I am not sure whether I am allowed to request for a signature but after seeing so many unique, colorful & brilliant signatures here, I would like to request for a signature. You can choose any theme you like but it can be an animal/book related signature if you need a theme. As for the size and colors, anything goes for me

Welcome Syaorakung to Trapland, hopefully you will enjoy your stay here and build your website . Don't worry about your English for there are many members who will help you when you get stuck. Where do you sing? And I would like to know what Syaorakung & Jiew means because both are interesting names :XD:And yes, if you do not understand the meaning of a particular word simply double click on the word and you'll get the meaning. I am sure that would help you

Let a noob welcome a fellow noob . First of all I hope you have read the rules & secondly I hope you enjoy posting at Xisto. My Uncle is a Chartered Accountant but I never did like accounting. There are A LOT of topics which you could contribute or learn from & many interesting members who are smart and funny (Fractured Logic being one of them :XD:)Let us meet in the topics then...

Nasal Irrigation is really helpful and it definitely improved my breathing tremendously. When I had shifted from a cold place to a really humid town which is noted for causing sinusitis in people (probably due to the air). I always had a blocked nose & heavy head so one day my friend recommended that I tried nasal irrigation, i was not too keen as it involved salty hot water & my nose . Basically he got this pot specially designed for nasal irrigation, added slightly hot water and some salt. Then he made me tilt my head towards the side, and all I had to do was tilt the pot and let gravity do the rest. At first there was no water coming out the other nostril so we added slightly hotter water to the pot. You might feel a slight discomfort but once you do it twice or thrice it gets easier and more comfortable. After the first time, my head was much lighter and I did not have a blocked nose. The problem is that people worry that the water might leak into their lungs or get stuck in their head (Trust me, I have heard plenty of weirdos with creepy assumptions). But the nasal irrigation involves your sinuses which are the cavities (air pockets) present in your head. And the only way you can get water in your lungs is if you breathe through your nose instead of the mouth while flushing your sinuses. I actually recommend it to those who have sinusitis but I strictly recommend that you have someone experienced with you as there are chances that you might do it wrong alone :XD:

Video games are like a double edged sword according to me, they are absolutely great time killers but if you get hooked onto them they can waste your time. But like bk2070 video games are great during bad weather and if you choose the right game it helps you improve your intellectual levels. I remember Sundays when me, my mom & bro would have a competition on who could get best scores in Tetris. And when me or my bro got overly attached to our consoles our Uncle would take a water pistol and keep squirting water, lemon juice or stinky perfume until the game character died or we ran away. I personally used to use video games to get back at my bro, he used to bully me a lot so I would beat him in any game he chose :XD: . Now instead of Tetris we play DOTA but he is much better at the game (He taught me how to play DOTA)

Yeah ip2location.com seems to be wrong because when I traced it using http://network-tools.com/default.asp?prog==208.87.243.146 I get 208.87.243.146 is from United States(US) in region North America so I am sure we can confirm now that the servers are indeed from the US

I was wondering whether we could start a book club at Xisto, serious members only. Any book goes as long as the member reads it and talks about it instead of simply disappearing. Not much to say right now but I hope we can start this because it would encourage other members to read books of different genres

I have both cats and dogs and I do believe in equality but I would like to say that your pets emulate you and you emulate them. This process of emulation is a 24x7 affair. I am a thorough recluse & like a cat simply vegetate in one spot for hours, books and a feline being the best companion . My dogs on the other hand make sure that I get some fresh air so we usually walk a mile twice a day, then it's back to some lazing. Whatever my dogs do, you can only describe it as goofy, cute, sweet and sometimes disturbing. But cats are synonymous to words like royal, sleek, adorable, graceful and mostly lethargic And to those who say that cats are useless pets who simply live with you because you feed them, your cats must be emulating your behavior :XD:My cats are the most sensitive munchkins alive... They are always ready to wipe my tears away or lay on my lap when I am lonely. My dogs too lie on top of me when they feel I need to be cheered up. So when you need an older sibling/mommy cuddle with your dog and when you need to be the life of a party, I say... start observing your cat's every movement.

Really nice topic Mermaid :XD: .. I actually was offered 2 hermit crabs along with the cage, food and toys but my mom freaked out. She did not like the idea of having crabs inside the house, i tried sneaking them into my room but Mommy dearest spotted me and out went the cute crabbies . But my Uncle has adopted them and I babysit them when he goes on vacation :)They are so adorable and cute, one of them has a habit of knocking on the glass if it's food is late... Kinda creepy but extremely cute. It will wait for us and when it sees the food in our hand, starts knocking on the glass as if to remind us that we were late

Sexy Scorpio... I am supposed to be compatible only with Cancerians and Pisceans and there is only ONE Cancerian ROFL.. There goes my chances of hooking up. Sun signs are fun but I do not take them too seriously :XD:

I used to do a lot of Tarot readings around 3-4 years but after we shifted to a new place I stopped as I lost the cards. 90% of my readings were perfect, but I use Tarot simply as a guideline rather than the solid truth because it mainly depends on our interpretation. I predicted my cousin's relationship but did not tell her as the reading said that the couple would break up because of a woman. And turns out they broke up because of the guy's mother...

Aaaah... Cooking disasters, I am a brilliant cook but sometimes while experimenting I tend to either destroy half the kitchen, myself or Igor (the unlucky sap who volunteers to help). The incident involves a toaster & a PLASTIC tub of butter, my best friend & pets were really hungry so I decided to make an omelette & toast for my best friend. The dilemma?? someone had placed the tub of butter inside the FREEZER, I am yet to find & impale the culprit >_>. I felt the need to multi task so I dropped the batter in the pan, started the toaster AND stuck the tub right next to the toaster so that the butter could soften... YES I DID IT!! I ran upstairs to feed the hungry mongrels & forgot about the butter. When I come back downstairs I find smoke (the eggs had burnt), my best friend sitting calmly in front of the computer some 10-20 feet away. As I prepared to kill him a shiver ran down my spine, I just noticed the tub of butter.. The butter AND the plastic can had softened!! the tub was stuck firmly to the toaster...

Awwwww *Hugs* Are you sure your account has not been activated?? and did you try the forgot password link? Maybe that should give you an idea about what went wrong.. I hope you get your account activated

I am pretty confused too... Because the servers are supposed to be in LA but seem to be pointing to India. I have reported the topic right now & hope that an admin will clarify as soon as possible

Thank you for the really warm response Fractured & for the helpful welcome Sky :XD: Wow, you were really lucky to have been able to witness the hatching .. I remember seeing lizards hatching with my grandpa & being there when an Uncle of mine was helping with the hatching of a baby star back tortoise ( He was a volunteer with WWF & has a star back tortoise).. And because we have had plenty of pets before, after & since my birth I have been there when my cats, dogs, fish and parrots were giving birth Ooooh My mom loves Elizabeth Haydon & Neal Stephenson, I am not into science fiction But have always enjoyed Robin Cook, Stephen Hawking, lots of comics, the classics Rudyard Kipling being a fav of mine, Biographies & many more. Lol If you ever get a chance of meeting Neal Stephenson get an autograph for my Mom.

Along with drunk drivers & those who fall asleep at the wheel we also have drivers who are eternally in a hurry to reach a destination, a lot of accidents happen when you drive rashly which tends to happen when you are in a hurry. So how do we stop jocks that love showing off or are in a hurry to reach deadlines? There are still many places that have not controlled the problem of people using their cellphones while driving, a town 200 miles from my place is notorious for road accidents. When I went for the holidays to visit my mother's family, there was not a single family/ friend who had not been involved in an accident. It was disturbing because only 1 out of the 30 people got hit by a drunk driver while the rest were youngsters/ careless drivers.But yes, I too feel that there should be a breath analyzer in the car! I would love to see a car with a breath analyzer that locks the car & beeps a number your location. The number would be configured so that the person can pick up or check on the drunk. I prefer locking because there is a chance that the drunk might go with a fellow drunk if the car does not start

The last movie I watched was a documentary based on Blackbeard and another one on the Barbarian general Ataulf.. Not much into commercial movies but I do remember watching Steel Magnolias

Thank you Fractured and yes I am aware that it is not an easy task for the admins, that's why I want the members to pitch in. The admins are doing an excellent job keeping the sites/servers up all the time & providing us with free hosting. I am sure that Admin OpaQue's reason for the MYCENT is to increase the quality of posting ( I read about the old credit system and the new MYCENT program). So why not help make trap more sexier by removing the old stuff and keeping only the valid posts.I am guessing that it would the S.E.O ranking for trap also and prevent anybody griping about bad links by trap... So let us begin the hunt :XD:

There are so many reasons why couples break up, the main reason being immaturity or too many differences. When we fall for a person at first we are ready to approve/accept everything that the person does but as time flies, so does patience resulting in rejection of everything the partner does. Sometimes the thought of being with only one person scares the other which results in panic, break up or cheating. I have seen couples break up because they were too "fast" or too "slow. In my cousin's case, she broke up with her guy of 3 years because of his mother, she "felt" that my cousin's family was not right therefore the girl too would be wrong for her son. She ended their relationship even though she knew how nice the girl was & never meant bad for her son. Well in a way it was good that it ended because the guy was a complete momma's boy who simply abandoned my sis just because he wanted to make his mom happy, my sis was pretty devastated because she had compromised everything she ever had for this guy.But there are many cases where the guy/girl is simply there for the ride while the other partner does everything required to keep the ship floating. After some time out of unhappiness or realization that it's a permanent "slavery" the partner chooses to leave. I have seen couples date each other for the sake of looking good in front of other people but once they are out of school/college/job they ditch each other and get back to life o.O Abuse can be a reason for long term relationships to end, you can never tell if a person is in an abusive relationship and they stick to the relationship because they feel they are to blame. There are many girls who stick to a guy without any choice but one day just get out of it...

A suggestion for the Admin...I was going through topics on the forum when I realized that there are plenty of domains/sub domains that are outdated or suspended so I was thinking that members could post outdated links in this topic so that support can remove the sites from their server. Now when I say I outdated I mean the .trap17.com subdomains that lead you to the Cpanel page. I do not think the suspended sites should be removed because there is a chance that a member might return one day to get his website back. An example would be xeek.trap17.com . I also would recommend closing the topics revolving around dead sub domains, an example would be " Rate my website xyz.trap17.com"Now I do not expect members to find the domains but simply to post any dead links they come across so that it is easier for admins/moderators to remove them and if necessary the topic. I am guessing that removal of these links would prevent "dead" topics surfacing on google, prevent members replying to a topic with "link broken" and avoid frustrations :XD:Thank you for reading and giving my topic a thought

I love jigsaw puzzles but I also love DOTA (Defense of the Ancients). Dota and puzzles take a lot of time so whenever I do not wish to spend more than 5-10 minutes on a game I head over to addictinggames.com or bigfishgames.com as they have pretty cool and fun games
