There is definitely people that are scared of posting in this thread, and many subsequent threads I think. Some threads have a much chiller atmosphere, and some are like the "popular girls" in high school that that thought they were hot shit, but really didn't understand that Rocawear and Timberland boots were ghetto.

I understand waiters fear even less than I understand lounge fear.

I think this isn't fear of "lounge" or fear of "waiters"...it's fear of diving into a totally new social group. It's like walking into lunch on the first day of a new school and not knowing where to sit.

To be fair, I submitted a few to safety schools, but with my GPA, I need to wait on scores to decide which apps are worth the fee :/

Did you try soliciting fee waivers after October score release? It makes deciding which schools are worth the fee when there's none to worry about haha

also--has anyone ever had any luck soliciting from chi?

imo, it's not fear per se. I decided to lurk in the octobers waiters thread because it seemed like a lot of the regular posters were already really close (irl too). I didn't want to butt in and more importantly I didn't really care for keeping in touch/talking/etc with random people I didn't know in the first place. this time I know a few people I'm genuinely interested in talking to and want to keep updated on.

but then again, I'm just speaking for myself.

If people don't like you, decide if you care, or if you still like what you're posting. Trying too hard is the #1 way to make teh internetz stink for everyone. That mostly means trying to inject GIFs where they're unnecessary thinking that finding cool GIFs makes you sweet. Another good example was paratactical, who really just resorted to this graphic weird sex schtick when she was in a bind because she seemed to cover "+1's". Another good tip that's sort of along the lines of what I've already said is just to try to add value. Figure out whether you're a funny guy, a good trash talker, a helpful guy, or someone like me who is really well rounded and just by virtue of participation you add value. But try to make posts have meaning. IBTl and plus 1 are pretty bad. Also dont be self righteous. Also don't be stubborn. Also just PM me if you need help. Also, pace yourself. Don't try to do too much too fast. TLS is a tight butthole. Eventually you can get your fist in her, but when you're just starting out, lead with just your thumb.

No info on Chi, but the reporting fees are also a main concern at this point... How many schools are on your list as of now?

like 18
