Yes, welcome to the loudest and yet quietest forum in the whole Watch. 
With all that goes on here, the only moderating I've ever had to do involved a spam-bot and naked pictures of Shakira.

How to Hug
How to hug a friend, a family-member, a crush or a lover.
Approach the person. Depending on the person's relationship to you, you might want to approach differently:
Family Hug: Approach kindly, but not too emotionally.
Friend Hug (girls): Approach caringly, sometimes humorously, and smile.
Friend Hug (guys): Approach quickly, usually not looking them in the eye.
Crush Hug: Approach carefully, but do not seem shy. Smile slightly and perhaps say a caring word or two.
Lover Hug: It doesn't matter who starts this, either can make it just as romantic. When approaching, put your hands on their shoulders and look them in the eyes. Say you love them, how much you care for them, and how much you are loving every second with them. Then fall into each other and hug with all your heart.
Embrace.
Family Hug: You can keep talking when hugging; it will not ruin the momentum. Place your hands randomly; the hugged won't think it over too much. Press gently, it is not necessary to have head-contact. Stroke your hands quickly across the top of the hugged's back. Smile when letting go.
Friend Hug (girls): Close your eyes when hugging and think about how much you love your friend when hugging. Press as much as you feel like. Do not clap the hugged on the shoulders or such; its too masculine and some girls think you don't like them if you do it the guys way.
Friend Hug (guys): Embrace strongly, and clap each other on the top of your backs. If it's an emotional moment, keep in the hugged position for a brief moment and do not clap each other's backs.
Crush Hug: Press the hugged warmingly towards you. If you are a man, remember that it is more masculine and more protective to fold your arms under hers. Her arms should be around your neck, and you should be embracing her around the waist. When pressing her against you, you can lift her up a bit, pressing her chest and upper stomach against yours. Keep it in that position for a while, and then let go. Look her in the eyes when you separate and continue the conversation naturally.
Lover Hug:1).Males:Carefully sliding your hands down from her shoulders, put them on her waist and slide them around her lower back. Put your head on her shoulder and press her towards you for as long as you like. If you want to you can give her a small massage with your hands, and try to warm her. When separating you can look her into the eyes, smile genuinely and if the situation is fitting, kiss her. 2).Females: Extend your arms toward him and hold them around his neck and shoulders. Lean as close as possible and press your torso against his. In situations of extreme intimacy, interlocking your leg in his is appropriate. Avoid holding arms below his shoulders and/or embracing strongly and tensely.

Moderator, hello moderator! This Sgt. Null person is clearly trying to undermine this fine community via that subversive post! We were informed months ago that this thing called a "hug" is an insidious contagion that could cause an epidemic of sappy feelings among otherwise rational people. This must be prevented, if we are to continue our comfortably numb existence.
Thank you for your attention.
