This is a great place to learn how to express ones ideas more effectively. You will encounter a variety of personality types on this forum. Part of learning to express ones ideas is learning to deal with all sorts of personality types. Not all ideas can be communicated to all personality types. Welcome to the forum!

@Jeremy phil,

As with any form of communication, the more you practice and hone your skills, the better it will become. Both by reading some of the better posts in various threads to see how Others express their thinking, and then by making a serious effort to communicate in the clearest way possible your own, it is possible not only to better communicate but also to better think about important problems.
Welcome to Philforum!

Is there any other kind...If it is not truth, it is not communication...

@Fido,

The more you are here the better you will become at both interpretation and expression.
Give yourself and us a chance to know and be with you before you leave.
You are most welcome and stay as long as you like and then a little more for those of us who like you.
What music do you like?
Welcome hope we can be of use to each other.

@sometime sun,

I do not know where to post this question, i understand these threads are for introductions.

I have read alot of threads and had thoughts on some, however i find myself "gunshy" about responding. Does anyone have some quick advice on how to overcome this fear?

Also, for my favorite music, sometime sun, i am a metal head htrough and through Smile

@Jeremy phil,

The best way of overcoming being gunshy about posting is to:
1. Really think about what you are writing and be as clear as you can in expressing your position or in asking a question.
2. Make your remarks clearly tentative or at the least non-assertive; if you are unsure about your thought or your expression, it does no harm in admitting it right from the beginning.
3. Do not take seriously criticism or comments expressed in an ungenerous or condescending manner.
4. When you turn off your computer, everything taken too seriously disappears and you have your music and your life to live.

Shoot first and ask rhetorical questions later...

How to overcome the fear of what?
If it is them, don't worry just be sure of yourself that is received.
If it is you, don't worry just be sure of them that is given.
Are you trying to reach yourself or us?
How important and who comes first?

I LOVE metal, but do not specialise in it so much these days.
Perhaps you could paste a couple of 'your' songs in our music threads?
Just so I can taste your atmosphere.
Music is a persons atmosphere.
wink
again you are welcome
