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.

Originally posted by duskenI am not sure what it is we are doing. Can you explain it differently? There is no denying that Armenians come from the Middle East and that cultural elements of that region are very undefine. Like who came up with the beat boom tam tiki tam boom tiki tam tiki?

When I listen to Pink Floyd I am not losing my culture to England. Also, I have not read anyone here boasting of Islamic culture unless it is to defend it against Jewish propaganda. Oh and Armenians do not dress like Muslims. I do not know where you got that one. People just like to ignore the fact that Armenia is Christian and has been for seventeen hundred years and that they have been in that region for much longer still.
Are you honestly slow? Armenia is a mountainous, landlocked country, on the southeastern edge of Europe, and at the gateway to the Middle East, and all of Asia. WE ALREADY ESTABLISHED THAT ARMENIANS ARE NOT MIDDLE EASTERN. You guys do not come from the middle east. Just because a few of you guys resided there during the diaspora of the genocide, it still does not mean you come from that region, learn to wise up kid. Look at that map, the URAL mountains are what divide EUROPE from ASIA and any country LEFT of the Ural moutains and above the ARAS river is EUROPEAN. ARMENIAN IS LEFT OF THAT MARGINAL LINE. Just because you cannot stomach your own lack of knowledge does not mean you should start throwing daggers. Look here this is an accurate recent map:
Free political, physical and outline maps of Europe and individual country maps of England, France, Spain and others. Detailed geography information for teachers, students and travelers
Look at where Armenia is. You guys had the misfortune of dealing and intermixing with those people that oppressed your people i.e. the middle eastern groups: Arabs and Persians.When the World Wide Web was born, things were quite simple. The internet supported just one device (the PC) and the browsers available were too primitive for me.

What it is you are doing? YOU ARE BOASTING FOR ARABS AND ROOTING FOR ALL OF THESE PERSIANS THAT ONCE USED YOU ALL LIKE BUTT WIPES and nowadays the U.S. despises those cretins for simply being that conniving yet ARMENIANS ARE STILL supporting Arabs and Persians. Look at that, at your own traditional weddings you guys play Turkish Arabic and Persian music, when these people see you guys are morons who once pillaged Armenia and still do not care to acknowledge that. THAT is what you are doing. You are selling out your own people to a bunch of nothings and conveying the impression that you guys are middle eastern sympathizers. You tell the American gov. that "yes we are these people from the desert too yes these people are related to us that you are bombing" when there is not even one iota of desert in Armenia nor is there islam.When the World Wide Web was born, things were quite simple.

Dunceken, you proved you are not qualified and lost credibility from the start in your assertions because you just refered to Armenians as a "race" when you are not. You already proved you are stupid by saying all of that.When the World Wide Web was born, things were quite simple.

First of all you are in a country that is a product of England therefore listen to all of the Led Zeppelin you want and Pink Floyd you want. However, you can listen to it on your free time as many times as you want BUT YOU GUYS DO IT IN YOUR CULTURAL TRADITIONAL WEDDINGS. That is embarassingly wrong. OMG LOL You guys moan about how bad you had it amongst Turks yet I see a lot more Armenians supporting their music than anyone else. You really make no sense and you should honestly for your own safety stop. IF you were to listen to it on your WEDDING day as your cultural traditional music gets substituted for that metal music, then you pretty much expose yourself as something you are not. Remember, there is a certain time and place for all of these things and Turkish music at an Armenian baptizing is not the right place or time for it.When the World Wide Web was born, things were quite simple.

When and where did I say otherwise? How can you even twist my words logically around to say that I said that about Armenia? Yes Armenia was the first nation to adopt Christianity as its religion. We know that. I never said they "dressed like muslims." I said they supported their culture LIKE IT OR NOT by listening to their music on their traditional ceremonies thus presenting their culture as one of those desert tribes who bow to a rug. You guys leave that impression and again for your safety you should look a little outside your own box to put an end to that nonsense ASAP, otherwise the PAtriot Act will take its toll and people will reject your "genocide" argument more than they already do, since you prove to us that you are advocates of the enemy. You sleep with the enemy when you do that and the enemy for America now= Arabs Persians and anything else islamic and middle eastern. Armenia being a CHRISTIAN nation has already served as schism to divide you from being middle eastern and as a part of those ethnic groups in the middle east.When the World Wide Web was born, things were quite simple.

The present-day Republic of Armenia occupies but a fraction of the ancient Armenia, which extended from the lesser Caucasus Mountains south across the Armenian plateau to the Taurus Mountains. Armenians' main roots are all sources derived from that Aryan movement dating back about 1200 B.C. from the Balkans and that is WHY Armenians are the original Europeans (aka the real white men). Geography undoubtedly played a key role in the history and culture of Armenia. Forming an important highway of great value for trade and commerce between Asia and Europe, Armenia it seems was destined to be at grips with adversity.
Armenians now a days look the way they look because for a succession of centuries, the Armenians were in constant warfare with invaders and conquerors - Assyrians, Romans, Byzantines, Parthians, Arabs, Persians and Turks - all of whom are dark complected (minus the romans and byzantines) and who rolled over their homeland, although certainly not without meeting the most stubborn resistance. Throughout these turbulent centuries, the Armenians successfully asserted their historical identity and upheld their national heritage against great odds but sadly were transformed physically and socially due to that.Last edited by IvyLipstick; 08-08-2004, 06:22 PM.When the World Wide Web was born, things were quite simple.

Oh and, by the way:
a definition of "race":
A group of people united or classified together on the basis of common history, nationality, or geographic distribution
No need to make stupid, over-used puns like "dunceken." You would bow to me if you knew me.
