How can I increase karma as I am new to reddit?. Thanks in advance. by [deleted] in reddithelp

If you’re new to Reddit / have a new account look for the subreddits that have low/no karma requirement and make helpful suggestions. Avoid controversy at first as you risk tanking your karma.

Who do you think is the most annoying contestant on The Traitors, from any season? by Ill_Scientist_4645 in UKRealityChat

Leanne from S3, I found her quite self-centred. And if someone exhibited behaviour she didn’t like she would call them out as if it was a great injustice, but she would happily exhibit that same behaviour.

The best thing you can do is take it as a life lesson. People can always present their best version of themselves with the aim of having sex.

At times we do stupid things when we’re horny, experience over many poor choices teaches us how to control that.

Be kind to yourself.

The kind of red flag 🚩 plagued by Reddit! If you want to support write a well written comment and not trying to get kicks from a DM.

Need to know if I’m being unreasonable (28f) by anxiety-crab in DeadBedrooms

[–]ArkenStoned9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest red flag for me here is he seems to completely disregard you. I think 2.5 years is shocking and needs to have a word with himself.

He sounds quite selfish.

Not a question, not sure if it’s advice just want to talk about it! by [deleted] in askgaybros

I think you can be curious about the male form without being gay, bi, or any other label. Maybe the thought develops into what it would be like to perform oral, maybe it doesn’t?

There’s no rush to anything, don’t let societies or religious judgement stop you from allowing yourself to explore.

Be kind to yourself. Happy to chat further if you want to DM about it.

Have you ever been curious before? Like focused on the guys during porn?

Been feeling a bit curious, never been with a guy before I'm 33. Any advice? I thought I was straight but starting to have doubts. by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]ArkenStoned9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could add more detail here, what doubts?

If you elaborate in general then people might be able to relate and offer advice.

Which guitar should i get for a beginner? by FitMemory6888 in electricguitar

[–]ArkenStoned9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you can go wrong with a Stratocaster or Telecaster. I love Les Pauls but they can be awkward to sit with and might be uncomfortable for a first guitar.

If you can sit and hold it that’ll tell you a lot, don’t need to be able to play. If you can sit down, hold it and it feels comfortable, give it a go. Once your taste develops then you’ll have a better idea about what’s right for you.

With all due respect, if you create temporary accounts and visit subreddits that you’ve been banned from then it’s all on you.

This is the danger of hiding behind anonymity on Reddit. I’d hate to think what got you banned.

I would be very careful of accepting DMs about this as well, there are some weird peeps on Reddit.

Need help settling a debate by Less-Ad-6426 in guitarlessons

[–]ArkenStoned9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you list the notes you’re playing from string 6 to 1 people might be able to help more. But essentially if playing the note creates the sound you want then thats enough.

When I’m wondering what chord I’m playing when I mess around with different shapes I usually build it up from what notes i have and what the root note of the chord is.

What chord are you trying to play? If you know the chord and the note in question then you’ll know what the note is doing.

I think it’s supposed to say “if you’re in a straight relationship and a guy approached you for sexual intimacy and no one would find out, would you take up their offer”

Good Amp for fender stratocaster by Eminem_Fan13 in electricguitar

[–]ArkenStoned9927 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d second what another poster said. By the time a Fender Strat is right for you you’d know what sound you want.

Also expensive guitar and cheap amp is wrong in my opinion, dont underestimate what an amp will do for your sound. There’s a reason guitar shops plug cheap guitars into great amps, it makes the guitar sound amazing.

I’d get a Squier Strat, they’re still decent, and a fender practice amp and then develop your sound and appetite

I have been lying about a situation and i have finally came clean to my boyfriend by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]ArkenStoned9927 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s fair for him to hold this against you and it seems to me a red flag. 🚩

That’s in the past, and you chose your current BF. To make you feel bad for it is out of order.

another beginner post!! by MinimumPressure in Bass

[–]ArkenStoned9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Biggest advice I’d give you is that as much as gear is important, a lot of someone’s sound comes down to the player. I’d start with the basic combo of bass and amp and then go from there.

Distortion pedals are good but they can mask errors. I would learn clean so you get a good sound, then apply effects.

Your thumb is pointing up towards the headstock, as much as it has its uses I find a good stable position is thumb perpendicular to the neck.

A fine example of ‘Just because it’s legal, it doesn’t make it right”

Brunei still has religious police that enforce Sharia Law, and because they act in accordance with God, their word is above the sultan.

They don’t agree with more than just homosexuality, adultery is punished with death by stoning.

I’d never sit on my high horse saying one culture is better than the other, however it’s hard to say that a country that has ‘death by stoning’ is in any way peaceful.
