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.

    Re: Armenia and the information war

    If war were to begin, and Azeri PR departments step up their game...then I guarantee the internet would absolutely destroy them. Especially huge forums like Reddit and independent news sources like VICE (who have a pro western vibe to them).
    Aliyev is a blatant dictator..No doubt about it..
    Look at what the internet has done with Putin...Go on reddit, who wont find a smaller Pro-Russia community...And Putin isnt even a full out dictator. Putin's government doesnt target any ethnic groups. (Openly at least)
    Aliyevs little twitter rant would explode in popularity as thousands of users flock to his page just to laugh at his stupid BS...(Thats why I dont want those posts removed...They just make him look like a racist idiot who controls and brainwashes his people...)

    And the Diaspora would definitely help to. The only weapon truly effective against propaganda is the truth. We have this in our side of the court.

    But Armenians demand $10bn.
    “Is Armenia ready to yield Nagorno Karabakh to Azerbaijan in exchange to financial means? Yerevan responded negatively just yesterday. But everything changes. And it is already known that on par with negotiations between the presidents of the two countries in Sochi, their representatives hold hidden negotiations in Geneva discussing the price of the issue”, Russian Politrus reports with reference to informed sources close to Azerbaijan.
    Important note: after familiarizing with the text of the message, we had a feeling that this information has likely leaked from the circles close to official Yerevan.
    According to the publication, in exchange to liberation of the occupied regions and Nagorno Karabakh, Azerbaijan is ready to pay $5bn to Armenia which would suffice to repay its external debt:
    “This is planned to do not directly between the central banks of the two countries but with the mediation of a number of influential international financial structures, for example the IMF, with service fees to be assumed by Baku. In response, Yerevan assumes the commitment to withdraw all the militarized units from the territory of Nagorno Karabakh until 2015, handing the control over them to the peacekeeping forces of OSCE or CSTO which will stay in the region until 2019.
    The publication claims that within that period Azerbaijan will form local executive power in Nagorno Karabakh on the parity basis, as well as introduce changes to the Constitution, fixing the status of the second regional language for Armenian and ensuring the education in Armenian language at all the educational facilities of the region:
    Baku shows unwillingness to agree on the legalization of dual citizenship for the residents of Nagorno Karabakh since President Aliyev has recently signed a decree on amendments to the law ‘On citizenship of the Republic of Azerbaijan” which demand to deprive the persons who take the citizenship of another country of citizenship”.
    Referring to informed sources, the publication also reads that Armenia also has ‘special desires’. For example the free visits of its citizens to Nagorno Karabakh for up to 180 days within a calendar year.
    However, according to Russian journalists, Yerevan does not agree with the amount of the compensation:

    According to PolitRUS.com, the emissaries of Serzh Sargsyan state the readiness to dialogue with the compensation amount starting from $1bn which they agree to receive for three years. That is more than $3bn-this is almost the whole revenue part of the state budget of Armenia”.

    Hraparak: Soros Foundation ‘declares war’ on Ashotyan

    Open Society Institute – Soros Foundations network Armenia “has declared a war” on Armenian Education Minister Armen Ashotyan, Hraparak writes.

    The newspaper has learned that a number of NGOs filed complaints to the World Bank U.S. office demanding suspension of financing of educational programs in Armenia. According to them, the reforms in the educational sector are not implemented in the right direction. They pointed to gender problems, the increased role of the Armenian Apostolic Church and politicization of higher educational institutions.

    An American delegation will visit Armenia this week to study complaints of NGOs, after which a final decision will be made.

Not only do you like to put words in peoples mouths but now you want us to see things that are not there. There is nothing in the title of this thread mentioning Azerbadjan but there is something in the title about information war which is what articles like these are all about.
    Every time the military tries to shutdown a military base for cost saving, the town & state where the base is located plead to keep the base. The reason being that all military bases in USA have a large positive financial impact on the community & state where they are located.
    ---------- a HUGE impact ---------
    Any economic impact study of Gyumri will show that.
    Like all military bases, there will be a few bad apples, but by in large standard military conduct codes instruct formal civility.
    That Russian base probably accounts for a huge percent of the cities scarce income.
