Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

      PRAYER OF JOHN PAUL II

      Memorial of Tzitzernagaberd
      Yerevan, 26 September 2001



      The Holy Father:

      O Judge of the living and the dead, have mercy on us!

      Listen, O Lord, to the lament that rises from this place,
      to the call of the dead from the depths of the Metz Yeghérn,
      the cry of innocent blood that pleads like the blood of Abel,
      like Rachel weeping for her children because they are no more.
      Listen, Lord, to the voice of the Bishop of Rome,
      echoing the plea of his Predecessor Pope Benedict XV,
      when in 1915 he raised his voice in defence of
      "the sorely afflicted Armenian people
      brought to the brink of annihilation".

      Look upon the people of this land
      who put their trust in you so long ago,
      who have passed through the great tribulation
      and never failed in their faithfulness to you.
      Wipe away every tear from their eyes
      and grant that their agony in the twentieth century
      will yield a harvest of life that endures for ever.
      We are appalled by the terrible violence done to the Armenian people,
      and dismayed that the world still knows such inhumanity.

      But renewing our hope in your promise, we implore, O Lord,
      rest for the dead in the peace which knows no end,
      and the healing of still open wounds through the power of your love.
      Our soul is longing for you, Lord, more than the watchman for daybreak,
      as we wait for the fullness of redemption won on the Cross,
      for the light of Easter which is the dawn of invincible life,
      for the glory of the new Jerusalem where death shall be no more.

      O Judge of the living and the dead, have mercy on us all!
      "All truth passes through three stages:
      First, it is ridiculed;
      Second, it is violently opposed; and
      Third, it is accepted as self-evident."

      Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)
