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.

    • Anti-Armenian Internet Warfare

      As many Armenians are aware, there is a mass influx of Anti-Armenianism from our enemies through the media. One of the most powerful tools today is information and media content on the internet since many people now get the majority of their knowledge from the World Wide Web. This is why we need to remain vigilant against enemies of the Armenian culture and anyone that works against our interests. If there aren't Pro-Armenian voices flooding the internet with our opinions and views, our enemies will succeed in finishing the Genocide that began over a century ago.

      Articles like the one below shows that our enemies are aware of this fact and will stop short of nothing to wage war against Armenians.


      2010 is a year of exposing lie, spread by Armenians for a century


      2010 has ended. Is it possible to say that one of its outcomes is the tendency of raising Azerbaijan’s superiority over Armenia in the so-called information warfare?

      As is known, it was American expert Thomas Rona who used the term information warfare first. In the report, he prepared for Boeing company in 1976 and called “Weapon system and information warfare”, Rona said information infrastructure is growing into the key component of American economy. All the same, it is becoming a vulnerable target in both in periods of war and peace. This report can also be viewed as the first mentioning of the term of ‘information warfare’. In the military sense, the term ‘information warfare’ was used in the mid 1970’s over the new tasks of the US armed forces after the end of the cold war. This became the result of the activity of a group of American military theoreticians, including Eccles, Summers and others. This term was further actively used after the Desert Storm operation in Iraq in 1991 where new information technologies were for the first time used as a means of hostilities. Azerbaijan, as a victim of aggression of the neighbor state, ignoring norms of international law and resolutions of a number of influential international organizations, is obliged to take part in the information warfare with Armenia, aimed at bringing the truth about the reasons and outcomes of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Nagorno Karabakh to the attention of the world community. Let’s admit that the Armenian propaganda mechanism, based on the repeated lie, has been successful throughout centuries. Hundred years ago the world Armenians realized the importance of taking the information niche, introducing necessary opinion in the society and further manipulate facts in their own interests. Therefore, it spent much money to spread lie via influential mass media of different countries, promoted the occupation of key posts by Armenians there. In the result, this promoted the false Armenian point of view, which was further used by world Armenians for their political interests. But the situation is being changed and 2010 can be called the year of the start of the process of bringing the truth about the reasons and outcomes of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Nagorno Karabakh to the attention of the world community, the year of exposing the lie, spread by world Azerbaijanis throughout a century and much money.

      Is it possible to say that time is working in Azerbaijan’s favor in this information warfare?

      The undoubted proof is the increase in the number of objective materials about the reasons and implications of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Nagorno Karabakh in leading world mass media, the growing number of references to the materials of Azerbaijani journalists. On the basis of real facts Azerbaijan via mass media started to actively bring to the international community the truth about Armenian nationalism, aggression against Azerbaijan, Armenia’s claims on the lands of its neighbors. The time and scientific progress are working against Armenians. Today, in the era of internet, it is easier to reject any Armenian lie. Meanwhile, the whole information warfare has always been held by the world Armenians including with respect to complicacies of refuting their lie by means of spreading Armenian myths. And the last factor, envisioning Azerbaijan’s further achievements in the information warfare with the world Armenians is the strengthening of influence of the Azerbaijani state. Independent, economically developed Azerbaijan with bright prospects, playing the growing role in the world geopolitical and geoeconomic game is the complete antipode of impoverished, dependent and unpromising Armenia. This gap between our states will grow, which will also increase Azerbaijan’s advantage in the information warfare.


      Are there already the political outcomes of the growing advantage of Azerbaijan over Armenia in the information warfare?


      Let’s recall what has happened just recently. For example, despite the strong pressure of the Armenian lobby of the United States, Matthew Bryza has been appointed the US ambassador in Azerbaijan, which can certainly be interpreted as Azerbaijan’s success in confronting Armenian lie. This is a great blow on the Armenian lobby of the United States, which is currently in the knockdown. This situation is also deteriorating by the appearance of information in mass media that the new staff of the Congress will hardly put the resolution on “Armenian genocide” on the agenda in the next two years. This is also not only the result of the strong and accurate work of the Azerbaijani and Turkish lobbies in the United States but also the outcome of the great work on the information space held by our countries. And finally, we have already heard the appeal of the Polish Foreign Ministry to its citizens not to visit Nagorno Karabakh without the consent of the Azerbaijani powers, which proves that Baku’s importance for European countries is growing as a result of the wonderful and competent work of local mass media to bring the reasons and outcomes of the Karabakh conflict to the attention of the world community. I am sure that this is just the beginning. We will further see the strengthening of Azerbaijan’s positions in the information warfare with Armenia, which will influence the positions of the world community in the resolution of this conflict.

        Are you surprised? Look at what Azerbaijan has to offer and then look at what we have to offer. It's a no brainer that any power will favour Azerbaijan, thank God, we have a powerful lobby in the West (esp USA), or else they would have stomped all over Armenia by now.

            My friends, nobody is anti-Armenian here. Siggie is certainly not anti-Armenian. But she has a job to enforce the rules and the rules call for no personal attacks, especially not allegations of pedophilia. These basic rules are almost universal on every forum. Comment on the comment, not the character. It's a simple rule that if we all abide by, should face no problems here. If you disagree with somebody's opinion, the burden is on your to try to convince them otherwise. We're also human so we get emotional and instances will occur when you will be provoked. Replying in a non-emotional manner is when you win the game and the troll loses.

            For the request to ban anyone who is not pro-Armenian, that's a counter-productive rule. The whole point of this thread is to counter information war. One of the ways of doing this is to engage the enemy, learn its tactics and find a way to refute them. We're not going to be able to win the information war by shutting people out (nor are we capable of this IRL), we're going to win it by being trained to sniff out bullsh!t and presenting facts. Now let's all calm down and enjoy a cold one

                Thanks for letting us know Mos. Google finally heard us out! Also check Artsakh. It is no longer Shusha but Shushi and there is no sign of "Xanxendi", only Stepanakert.

                    Ways to counteract Azerbaijan’s anti-Armenian propaganda discussed in Yerevan
                    April 21, 2011 - 16:15 AMT 11:15 GMT
                    PanARMENIAN.Net - Scientific conference, entitled: “Anti-Armenian Propaganda of Azerbaijan and Ways for Opposition,” was organized by Noravank scientific educational foundation and Armat club in Yerevan.

                    Director of Noravank foundation Gagik Harutyunyan said that any scientific conference or discussion on the Azerbaijani-Turkish propaganda is always topical, since Armenia permanently faces the problem of anti-Armenian propaganda carried out by these two countries.

                    “The conference is of symbolic importance. On the eve of April 24 – the day of the Armenian Genocide commemoration – we should conceive that the Armenian Genocide recognition worldwide requires certain efforts in the information field,” said Harutyunyan.

                    According to him, despite the existing skepticism, it should be noted that Armenia recorded a considerable progress in information wars.

                      We should be much more organised when it comes to information war. Maybe be like Israel, didn't they recently enact a software that detects when anti-Israeli things are said, and have organised an online community for it?

                      Such propaganda will not affect educated people that much, more it will affect uninformed people, or with it they may try to garner "Muslim solidarity" against the evil Christian Armenians.
