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.

      Wouldn't be surprised if Turks committed such an act. It's part of their Mongoloid nature.

          Thanks, Alexandros. I am really sad about the economic crisis in Greece. I hope it won't be too many years before Greece fully recovers.

          That fascist party has got a lot of militants, I think. But, let's hope the Greek anarchists and communists (I know that these two groups are strong in Greece) will give them hell in the streets

          Do you like football ? Do you plan to go to Euro 2012 matches ? You know, in Euro 2004, I was really happy that Greece won it.
          My grandfather was a commie and fought in the Greek civil war against the right. But I have never really sympathized with communism or for that matter the anarchists. Communism may be good as an idea, but in practice it doesn`t really work. On the hand hand, capitalism is far from perfect, we can see how the states bails out the banks; I mean what kind of capitalism is that? First the bankers takes enormous risks and then if things goes wrong, the tax payers will have to pay for their wrongdoings. This is so wrong.

          As for the anarchists, why can`t they demonstrate peacefully? Why do they have to burn cars, shops and destroy other peoples' property? I have never really understood that.

          Speaking of soccer, I`m a soccermaniac! I would love to go to Euro 2012. But personally, I think watching the matches on TV is so much more comfortable and safer I think.

          Which team do you support in Turkey?

              While I m waiting for a reply I've been re-reading your(Cem) post.
              You say : some people in this forum have (generalized) and said bad things about turks.
              The next paragraph you state that you talk on Turkish forums against nationalism and (always) receive bad words,insults and threats.Are you generalizing when you made that last comment?
              A person does not have to generalize when the speak bady about the actions of Turkish (society).
              It is not a coincidence that ou always get threats etc. from your -- compatriots --- .
              You tell me if I am mistaken Cem.
              F an honest man or woman walked down any street in what is called turky and in a clear but non intimidating voice expressed their grief , heartbreak, and utter horror of the genocide what do you think would insue?
              One does not have to generalize to say bad things about those Turks to know bad things would happen to that person who spoke the truth� or d you think speaking the truth on any street in what is called turky
              about the GENOCIDE would merely cause an intellectual conversation?

                I have never visited any of my relatives that were in Constantinople.
                There isn't anyone left.

                  Dear Artashes,

                  I am someone who feels very bad and also angry about what happened to Armenians in 1915 (and also before 1915; as you possibly know, massacres happened between around 1890 and 1915 too). So I am someone who sympathises fully with you. I will later tell you more about how I became more and more sensitive on this issue; this is the introductory section of the forum so I don't want to get too much into such stuff here in this section.

                    Sorry for the late reply to this, dear Artashes. As you know, there are always so many things to do and read on the Internet. I write in various forums and also like to read a lot of articles and also write lots of e-mail. I can barely keep up And, I am a TV addict so I spend a lot of time watching stuff on TV too

                    I am an Istanbul guy. I was born and grew up here and spent most of my life here but my mother and my father are not really from Istanbul. Both of them came to Istanbul in their twenties. I hope this answers your question.

                      OVERALL, you have valid points in this post. As I wrote above, this is an introductory section and I prefer discussing these in the suitable section (or maybe we can discuss via private messaging or e-mail). You can trust me that I won't run away from this forum; even if some people write nasty things to me (it has happened to me before in various forums; people of various nationalities wrote insults to me mainly because I am internationalist and dislike nationalism of all kinds). As you know, being anti-nationalist is not easy in this world
