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.

      Not that I disagree but isn't that just the kind of statement that gets all of Ara Baliozian's devoted non-fan base all riled up?
      this post = teh win.

        I know, and neither do I. The corruption is there, but it can be, and most importantly, will be reduced. As you said "a mess that took a thousand years to create will not be cleaned up in a few short years".

            Amusing, but you betrayed the spirit of it.

              And that would be the only thing I've ever betrayed.

                This is a regrettable statement.

                  pardon for the OT but you are the one who brought Mr S into this thread.
                  Well, I don't particularly like the English. I lived with them and I know them pretty well and quite frankly - I got no time for them. Of course, this is a generalisation and there are plenty of decent English folks, no doubt about that. BUT overall they are the most dishonest, the most two-faced, the most oppressive and racist people I've ever met, and I've dealt with dozens of races (Russians, Germans, French, Turks, Arabs, Kurds, Iranians, Chinese and even Blacks from Africa) you name it and I've dealt with them, so I know at least a little bit what I'm talking about. The racism of the English is quite unique and even though it is much less violent then say the Russian racism IMO it is still the worst kind of racism in the world. English racism is carefuly hidden, it's skillfuly masked. Their racism is just one of many very English negative character traits, there are plenty of others. Anyway, the hell with these poms (prisoners of mother england) they are not worth our time.

                      Suren Ayvazyan of Yerevan University is writing to the Queen to demand the return of the treasury of the Kingdom of Cilicia, or Lesser Armenia, which was overthrown by the Muslim Mameluke rulers of Egypt in 1375.

                      King Levon VI of Cilicia, a state occupying parts of what are now Turkey and Syria, managed to escape to Europe, where he sought to raise a final crusade to free the last Christian state in the Middle East.

                      In 1378, he signed an agreement depositing the Cilician treasury with King Richard II of England for safekeeping until his kingdom regained its independence, according to Professor Ayvazyan.

                      King Levon did not live to see his country free again. In fact, apart from an interlude in 1918-1921, no Armenian state existed again until the Republic of Armenia was established in the Caucasus in 1991.

                      The 300 years of the Cilician Kingdom is considered to be the golden age of the Armenian enlightenment, and produced a wealth of exquisite illuminated manuscripts. It eventually fell foul of the wrath of Muslim rulers in the region for having sided with the Crusader states of Edessa and Jerusalem.
