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.

        The sad state of Georgian politics...

        Georgian Ex-President Says Armenia Should Respect Azerbaijan

        Eduard Shevarnadze, the Georgian Ex-President, who worked together with Azerbaijan’s All-Nation Leader heydar Aliyev for many years, urges Armenia to respect Azerbaijan, since it is the most powerful state in South Caucasus, Trend reports referring to the National AzTV Channel. According to Mr. Shevarnadze, just owing to the political will of Heydar Aliyev, Azerbaijan has taken the leading position in the region.

        “ Armenia should respect Azerbaijan, otherwise it may lost its independence. I think that Armenians will realize the necessity to resolve the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The delay in this issue may represent even more heavy results than the present-day ones, as Azerbaijan has left behind both Armenia and Georgia by economic, military and defence, and other indicators,” stated Mr. Shevranadze.

        “Heydar Aliyev was a unique person. He founded the independent state on an empty place. The existing Azerbaijani leader is a wise man too. Heydar Aliyev did not make a mistake when he chose him as his successor,” concluded the Georgian Ex-President.

          Is he serious ? If he is than he's very stupid. AndI don't think Armenia should Fear Azerbedjan but that GEorgia should fear Russia. And when Azerbedjan starts another war they will lose their independence

          Ps this was the funniest part

            These clowns should realize that they will never ever get the kind of military imbalance they had in 1991-1992.

              I really think we need a general history forum.
              But, I found something. I guess I didn't really know how many Mamluks were Georgians? Near the end, pretty much the entire Mamluk organization was Georgian. Also, I wonder how many of the barbaric Mamluks ended up back in Georgia, after Ottomans took over. More importantly, this could explain Georgia's anti-Armenian stance in the past few centuries.

                  If Armenians remained Zoroastrians I reckon that we would be part of Iran right now and we would have an Iranian ethnic consciousness. The reason why Armenia managed to create a distinct national identity was, apart the language, because we had our own head of Church and sect of Christianity, meaning that they took no order from the Vatican and Constantinople. Gregorian Christianity and our independent Church is why there are Armenians today.

                    Rulers of Egypt, who were initially of Kurdish ancestry. They also ruled over the Holy Land, and were very hard on Christians. They brought in droves of Turkish, and apparently, Georgian (which I didn't know) slaves, who were promoted and at different points in time became the ruling families themselves.

                      And georgians always backstabbed us.

                      But am proud that we had our own gods.

                      By the way...just recall the birth of Vahagn....this alone gives me proof that our ancestors had very high and close knowledge of what they call now chi kung.

                      Combination of heaven's energy (yang) and earth's energy ( yin) gives life.

                      But they burnt our ancient text, when we turned Christians, yes?
