About HyperactiveMiss





Hello!
Ask away! If you'd like to know me better, check out my websites by clicking here and viewing my collective. I always try to give detailed and helpful advice. Please feel free to ask me for advice and DO give me feedback! Reading good comments and knowing that I helped someone out literally puts a smile on my face.

Please be sure to look at the FAQ on my column. If you ask a question similar to one I've already answered, I will most likely reply with the same answer.


Grammar, Punctuation, etc
I think if Advicenators are going to take the time to answer other peoples' questions and give free and helpful advice, the least people could do is use correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc when they are asking for help. It's unbelievable how some people TyPe LiKe ThIs, or never use periods, or don't have the time to do a "seempl nd quik speel chek".
Pet Peeve
I think that's totally lame when someone rates you down just because they don't want to accept the truth. It's also annoying if they rate you down, just because they didn't like your answer. Advicenators isn't about hearing what you want to hear. It's about finding the truth. People should be thankful that someone gave their time and effort. They should be thankful their question was even answered at all.
Rating & Feedback
Let me just remind you what each number means when you rate someone. These are OFFICIAL.

1- Pretty Bad Advice 2- Not Harmful, But Not Useful Either 3- Decent Enough Advice 4- Good Advice 5- Really Awesome Advice

I think everyone should give feedback, not just a rating. And feedback should include WHY you gave that person that specific rating. If everyone did that, everyone would probably rate more accurately. Also, the advice giver took the time to answer the question. The least the question asker could do is to give feedback! But unfortunately I guess it's too hard and mind boggling for everyone to do.

  • this guy found me on myspace and said i was really cute. hes really cute too and he said he just moved to my city. and he told me where he lived by and its really close to me. well he was like can i do a mapquest? cause im not sure how close u live. i wasnt thinking and i gave him my address and stuff for mapquest. now hes always like we should hangout and stuff. and hes like just turned 18. and he always talks about how much he drinks..and smokes...and i dont know im worried. what if he like comes to my house or something?.....

    When I read this question...I was shocked. Really. Because I know people do some stupid things on the internet, but at least they have the common sense to at least not give their ADDRESS to a total stranger (No matter how "cute" they are). Please, remember next time, you shouldn't even give out personal information like your number, or zip code...ESPECIALLY important things like addresses!

    DEFINITELY tell your parents. Because if the guy really did come, I don't think they'll be too happy and you won't be either (Imagine what he might do!).

    I think maybe you should tell the guy you're going to move houses in the next few weeks or something. Make it believable, not something you made up because you accidentally gave him your address.

    You should also eventually tell him you aren't interested in meeting people over the internet and your parents know about your internet activies and don't approve of it. That way he can get that you don't want a visit from him and your parents know about it. Then block the guy. Extra sercurity measure would be to get a security alarm or something. Never walk around by yourself (Although you probably shouldn't have before anyway).

    This may be good that it happened because some people only learn after they have made a mistake. Just don't do the same mistake twice!
