this is all the other advicenators, because since you are all on this site like me, im thinking maybe you guys have had the same problem. obviously, we all like helping people. but what happens when we're the ones who need the help, but we feel we can't ask for it because we're supposed to be the one who has all the solutions. please dont tell me to write my problem on here, because obviously i know that. don't get me wrong...i LOVE giving people advice...but in the real world, have any of u guys ever felt like your not supposed to need any back in return? just a thought...let me know what u think.
No. I think it's pretty foolish to think that you have all the answers and will never need to ask for help. It's quite possible that you could give advice on a certain topic, only to want to ask about the same topic later on. It's all a matter of "tell me what you think I should do, so I can make a better decision" A lot of people on this site seem to already know what they need to do. But they still ask the questions to get reassured from other people.
In the real world, everyone needs help all the time.

how do you rate someone?
http://www.advicenators.com/faq.php?t=5 and
http://www.advicenators.com/faq.php?t=6 tell you everything you need to know about ratings.
[view]
how do you get rates and earn points? So then i can rate some people and ask people to rate me. Please i really wanna know. Thanks...
Sammy Sam
If you ask people to rate you then your very likely to get a one or a two as a ratings. It annoys people and makes it seem as though your only concerned with ratings and don't really care about helping someone.
Also, getting rated doesn't earn you "points" You won't be cooler with a higher rating. And you won't get more questions just because you have a higher rating.
To actually answer your question: You can find out all about ratings in the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

My friend has a dog that won't stop eating like when she takes the food away he growls at her a bites her .all he does is lay around by his food and if anyone walks by he bites them
what to do
Your friends dog is very possesively aggressive. You really need to see or at least talk to a professional dog behavioral specialist. If you don't fix this problem, then your dog will bite a stranger sooner or later. Whether it's a small child or an adult, you will have to euthanize him.

I have had my Shih Tzu for 1 year and one month got him when he was 3 months old. My problem is he is very difficult to potty train,,,sometimes he has accidents in the house, can't figure out why at his age he does, being I thought he was potty trained he goes for long periods without doing anything, then out of the blue he messes in the house..Can someone help me please???
Here's a few questions:
Is this a recent development? If it is, then it is possible that your puppy has a Urinary Tract Infection. If he is going to the bathroom more often than usual and is peeing at shorter intervals, only to go a short while after, than this might be the cause. A urinary tract infection can be cured by some antibiotics that you can get from your Veterinarian.
What do you do when he goes in the house, and what do you do when he goes inside. I ask these two questions because you should be praising him extra good when he goes to the bathroom outside. Also, you should not scream and yell and scare him when he does make a mistake and go inside. As you know, a Shih-Tzu is an extremely small dog and will get scared easily. Getting scared could cause him to loose his bladder. This could become a habit every time he hears loud yells and screams.
This does not mean that he shouldn't be scolded when he goes inside. But DO NOT yell his name when you scold him. Yell a sharp short syllably work, such as HEY! or NO! This will help him to distiguish between "good spot(insert dog's name" and "No, that's not good to do"
Also, you should praise him extra special when he does good and goes outside. Bring treats every time you go outside. Make sure you talk in a higher pitched friendly voice such as "good boy" or "good puppy" or "yay!" whenever he goes outside.
Using a sharp "NO" when he goes inside, and then using a good-natured "good boy" when he goes outside, will help to make sure he really does know the difference between good and bad.
But of course, you should probably talk to your Vet and see if there are any underlying medical problems that cause him to do this first.

i just lost my virginity nd now im freakin out cuz we were dumbasses nd didnt use ne thin i forget wen i last had my period nd i don remember wen im supposed to get it next nd im like freakin out bout maybe bein pregnant or sumthin wut r my chances of bein pregnant?? i kno that there is a chance cuz theres always a chance but like is it a big chance or a small chance lol idk im freakin out so sumone lemme kno! thnx!!!
Chaos is right, do not listen to anyone that tells you that you can't get pregnant, or your less likely to get pregnant, if the guy pulls out before ejaculating. You need to calm down. If you are stressed out it could prolong your period whether you are pregnant or not. You need to get to a doctor, tell them what happened, and get their advice. Absolutely make sure you get tested for STD's. Even if you don't see any symptoms, you could still have one.

why do all my questions get deleted there not stupid questions and i want to know i have gotten like 1 out of the 6 i asked to be answered with out being deleted and i think thats F*cked up but i bet ur gonna delete this one too
Gee, let me take a look at your account. I have seen pretty much all of your questions on the "view questions" page at one time.
So they are at least getting approved. Do you want me to tell you why the level one's rated them down enough to get deleted?
Well, first there's the spelling. You need to check your spelling and make sure all your questions get approved. Then there's the content. Half of them are questions that could easily be answered by searching for a "Kingdom Hearts" website on Google. The "gift for my girlfriend" question gets asked ALL the time and you decided to type with quite bad spelling and grammar. The aim screen name one also had bad spelling. That is a reason that the level one moderators might delete it.
Your only question that I noticed that shouldn't have been deleted is "How do you get scratched out of ps2 games?"
Anymore questions about how to ask a decent question? Don't complain about your questions being deleted and saying that they aren't stupid. We don't simply delete questions because we hate you. We delete questions because they are supposed to be deleted. Check out the FAQ section on questions. Here, I'll even give you the link.

ok, why is everyone always asking 'does he/she like me?' i mean, come on, only that person knows!
Judging from your column with the very low rating, and the things you have contributed to this site; I have a question for you.
Would you even come to this site if there weren't any stupid questions like that to make fun of?
Why don't you try asking questions that aren't about whether or not some person likes you. Maybe the masses will try to copy you and ask something original for a change.
P.S. You shouldn't tell people to learn to type when you can't even type out the entire word 'your'.

can hickies lead to any kind of bad thing, like something go wrong with health....do u unserstand?!....like, what is bad about having hickies?!
Hickey's are essentially just a bruise on your skin. All the blood is rushed to one area and causes a bruise.
My older sister once told me that all bruises can be cancerous, especially the bad ones, like the ones you get from an overly horny teenage boy. But, I have never been able to back that up with credible information.
Besides that, despite popular belief, they do not make you look cool, and they can be a bit painful.

A friend of mine needs a roommate, and I really want to move in with her because she's got a cool place and I'm sick of living on my own. The problem is that she's got a cat and I'm allergic to cats. The duplex has all hardwood floors and I'd have my own cat-free room, but I'm really nervous about moving in because cats really make me sick. Should I risk it?
How allergic are you to cats? Did you know that when you are allergic to cats it's actually the saliva that your allergic to? I have recently learned this in my Small Animal Care and Handling class. If your actually allergic to cats, and your just allergic to their saliva, then you only need to worry about this if the cats bites or scratches you. And most people are not affected by it too severely. I am allergic to cats, but I'm going to school to be a Veterinary Technologist. That's because I am only slightly allergic. If I get scratched and I don't clean it right away, then the place that gets scratched will only slightly swell up. But if I get scratched and clean it out with peroxide or alcohol, or some other disinfectant, then I will nto be affected at all by the toxin in their saliva.
Now, do you actually mean that you are allergic to the cat dander? I am also allergic to cat dander, but my mother always had pet cats when I was growing up. I found that it took a week or so for me to get used to the smell of the cat, and then I would be fine. If that doesn't work for you, there are medications that you can use. You most likely will not need to take those medications all the time, but only when you have a bad allergy episode.
My opinion is that you should try staying at your friends house. But do not make a choice after only one day. When your in a new house and you have allergies, then it's always going to take a short while for you to get used to the smells and dust and animal hair. Just give it some time, and you will eventually stop sneezing every time the cat walks by you. Plus, if you have your own cat-free room, then you'll always have a "safe" place to go. And depending on how clean she keeps her house and litter box, it shouldn't take long for you to settle in and stop sneezing.

Ok. I want to lose 100 pounds or more in about 1 -3 years. Will this make me lose 100 pounds. For breakfast all I eat is cereal. Then I have gym for 4th period. Which 2/5 days I walk about a mile or more. For lunch I have a sprite and sometimes chips. Then for dinner I have whatever my parents make. Then after dinner I do 35 sit ups, 50 squats. 30 jumping jacks. Also, I do watch what I eat. I drink water most the time and sometimes Ill have a pop. I usally only have 1 pop a day. Is there anything else I should do to help me? And do you think that'll make me lose 100 pounds in 1 - 3 years? Ok thanks.
It would be better if you ate a small lunch. Not just a soda and chips, but an actual healthy, small lunch. Breakfast should be your largest meal, and supper your smallest. But do not skip lunch.
Your metabolism needs to stay at a constant, but if you skip lunch, then by supper time your stomach will freak out and you'll actually gain more weight because you didn't eat any lunch.
It's actually really healthy for you to eat a good sized breakfast, and then throughout the day eat four to seven small healthy meals.

what is the real definition of cheating on someone?
just wondering
My personal definition of cheating is this: When you have a monogamous relationship, you are cheating if you do anything at all with another person, that you would not do if your loved one was there. Or when you do something that your loved one would be upset about.
This is different than the normal "your cheating if your going out with two people, or if you kiss/have sex with someone besides your boyfriend/girlfriend." But I feel that when your in a monogamous, loving relationship, you should not do anything at all that your loved one would be upset about. This can include holding hands, flirting, hugging, etc.

hi ive had this horrible sore throat for like 6 days. ive tried everything and nothing seems to work. ive stayed home 4 days from school and am really far behind. what is there to do ive watched like every movie and slept but i get so tired, how do i cure this and what can i do while im sick
Have you tried gargling salt water? It sounds painful when you have a sore throat, but trust me, it really does work. I was about to do that before I take my class. Just make sure you don't swallow the salt water. That just wouldn't taste good.
As for being so tired, I'm guessing you have a cold. I also have a cold but I have to suffer through work and classes.
Take some cold medicine, some vitamin C and eat some chicken soup.

Hey i'm 13/f, and i think i just started to get discharge about a month ago... (its the whiteish yellowish stripe kind of thing in you underwear) just today there was an almost greenish kinda stuff in my private part... what is it? does it mean anything? also, im really skinny(like 76 lbs.) and maso/menos underdeveloped (im about 5 feet)... what is it and what should i do, and around when do u think i'll get my period? thanks!!
-5 feet
Are you sexually active? A greenish discharge is not normal. You need to go to your doctor. It could be a number of things and they will probably need to do some tests on it to find out what it is.
Don't worry about going to the doctor's, it's not as huge a deal as everyone makes it out to be. Your doctor is proffessional and will do everything possible to make you feel comfortable.

Everone says that 'puppy love' is just when younger people say they're in love but 'real' love is proper love. So is it possible for a 13 year old to be in real love?
Puppy love is not just younger people saying they're in love. You can be 30 years old and have puppy love.
Sure it's possible for a 13 year old to be in real love. But, in my opinion, you will never really know if it is real love until you get more experiences in life. You don't have anything to compare it to right now.
You just shouldn't throw the word around like a lot of young people do. It's a very strong emotion and you can't be in love with every cute boy or girl that you see. You need to figure out the difference between a "crush" and "lust" and actual, real love. And you have a long time to figure that out, so you don't need to hurry up and figure it out tomorrow.

my akita is 6 wks old & has been feeling ill and has had diarhea for about 24 hrs
This could be caused by a number of things. Have you changed her diet recently? Does she eat hard food or soft food? Is she even old enough for anything beside's her mother's milk?
If you are feeding her soft food, then that is most likely the problem. Soft food has a very large amount of moisture in it, and also has more fat in it. You should switch to a diet of half soft food and half hard food.
All dogs are born with worms, and she needs to get dewormed if she has not been already. You should bring her to the Vet to get her dewormed and vaccinated. This may or may not have something to do with the diarhea, but it will definately be helpful.
Another and much more dangerous reason for this could be that she has ingested some sort of poison. Anything from an everyday house plant, to an everyday cleaning solution could be very dangerous to pets. Try to think of everything she has had a chance to get into and tell your Vet about it.
Also, this may just run it's course on it's own. She might be a little sick to her stomach right now, and she just needs to get over it. If this is still going on (since you asked this question on the 31st) then it is probably something to worry about. If it's not still happening, then your puppy should be ok for now.
I would also like to tell you that next time you have a question, you should put an actual question in with it. For instance, "my akita is 6 wks old & has been feeling ill and has had diarhea for about 24 hrs"... you should have added something like "Does anyone know what could be causing the diarhea?" or "Can someone please help me figure out what is wrong with him/her?"
Putting a real question somewhere in it would definately help you get more people to answer it. People would also be able to take it more seriously.

Why is it that whenever i try to view someone's advice column this message appears on the web page rather than the column...
"No column was found with the specified username, or there was an error in the username specified. If you'd like this name for yourself, register at Advicenators.com and start your own free advice column!"
Your knowledge would be appreciated..
That depends. Most of the time it's because a user has either an underscore (_) or a space ( ) in their username. Those two things mess up the username, which is clearly stated when you go to register for this site. But people still continue to put spaces and underscores in their usernames. People will have a hard time getting to their column. Oh well.

Hello, please help. My username is Jenni, and I've been rated at least 5 times in the last thirty days. I went to the "make me a moderator" page, and it said yes to everything but that one about how many times I'd been rated. It said I was rated THREE times! I really want to be a moderator, but this is kind of ruining it. Someone know what's wrong?
Don't worry, the site may take a little while to update your ratings.
http://www.advicenators.com/tools.php?feedback=1
I got this link from the advicenator_admin's column. It should update your ratings for you. Hope to see you on the moderator board soon.
***EDIT: I checked out your column, and two of the 5 ratings that you got came from personal questions. I'm very sorry, but the only ratings that count towards your average rating are the one's that come from public questions (questions that are asked to everyone). Just answer more question's that are asked to the entire site and when you get a few more ratings you can try it again.
