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.

      It is no worse than mos and his ilk do, and do in about every post they make. So either start enforcing the rules universally, or remain silent on everything.

        Following the rules the two of you should be banned along time ago.

          I don't think there is a strategy, except perhaps an unwritten one of "the more members there are, the better, no matter how bad they are" - so activities that should lead to bans are overlooked. But there is a lack of aspiration, an acceptance that this is a good as the forum can get. Though this forum isn't, and should never be, and probably could never be, a propaganda website.

          In a way I'd love to be a moderator for a few months - at the end there would be blood and dead bodies everywhere, and an active membership of maybe a few dozen. After this the quality of posts would be much higher, and there would be a gradual increase in useful new members as the status of this forum increases. The number of un-useful new members would be controllable because there would be no horde of established idiots to encourage them, and they would know there are rules that are, after a decent amount of advice and warnings, enforced.

            Federate - I PM'd moderators months ago about KarotheGreat's racist tag "There's only one good Turk and that's a dead Turk!!!!!" so why are moderators not requiring its removal or banning KarotheGreat?

              -Don't let Armenians close enough to sting you - no matter how friendly they at first appear, they will, in the end, try to sting you - even if it means harming themselves more than it harms you.

              -My advice to anyone (including Armenians!) wanting to associate with Armenians is to always remember the words of a French Armenian who (based on his 30 years experience of trying to work with Armenian organisations to promote Armenian issues) warned me saying "watch out, 90% of Armenians are absolute bastards". Even though that 90% figure is an exaggeration, it is still good advice, since few will disagree that the absolute bastards make the most noise in every field of Armenian life, including online.

              -ArmeniaNow is the ONLY credible independant news source left in Armenia.

              -Armenian history when written by Armenians is often not credible, every claim should be regarded with suspicion.

              -Armenians shoot themselves in their feet so often I'm surprised they haven't evolved to walk on their hands instead.

              -My advice to everyone: never trust anything an Armenian says about the Armenian Genocide, and only a fool stakes their reputation on evidence provided by Armenians.

              -Europeans, in general, understand the proper way to treat archaeological monuments and sites of cultural importance. I see little evidence of any "European" values at work in the disgraceful way monuments in Armenia have been treated since the end of the Soviet period. In Armenia, pseudo-religious medievalist or middle-eastern values seem to predominate. The various "restoration" treatments inflicted on Tatev since the 1950s are cultural crimes by modern standards, standards that today's Armenia has signed up to through various international charters. In Greece, maybe there are nationalist nutters who want to entirely rebuild the Parthenon, and have priests enact daily blood-sacrifices on its altars - but such people are recognized as being insane fantasists. In Armenia, and transfer the fantasy to an historic Christian-era monument, and it seems they would be considered entirely sane, get approval from the Armenian Church, and even get some guilt-ridden criminal oligarch to pay to realize the fantasy.

              -Though, if I were to extrapolate from my experience of dealing with Armenians, I'd say that if you are not getting death threats from idiots or extremists then you are doing it wrong.

              alas, bell-the-cat
              Thanks to Tigranakert who collected all of this.

              Why are people who are anti-Armenian allowed to stay on this site.

                I'm presuming he copied the original correctly!

                  You would do me a big favour if you or Tigranakert could collect more. I could go through all my posts over the years and pick what I think are the best bits - but that would take much time, and it would be biased because I would be picking only what I think are the best.

                    If only they were that easy to kill in real battles! Even lemings have more sense of self-preservation than those Azeri soldiers! One wonders about the psychology of the intended audience.

                    Near the end did you see the grenade falling in from a hole in a roof - then in the next scene the same building is shown from the outside with a completely intact pitched roof and nowhere for a grenade to fall through. Maybe Azeris' think Armenians hide in their attics, just waiting to drop grenades onto them.
