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.

    Do not “trust” him 100%.
    Not sure if he writes his own scripts or somebody else (outside forces).

    He carries the excess luggage of not being democratically elected thanks to LTP .
    He is venerable to political blackmail by the “rulers of the world”.
    I am more nervous of all those LTP-like traitors in Armenia and the so-called fake opposition. Serzh Sarkisyan has been the best president Armenia has had until so far. This does not mean he is perfect (nor that he doesn't make some mistakes), but compared to most of the "opposition" he is heaven sent.

    I am still wondering when the day will come that Armenians in general will get politically mature, and we don't have to be scared of Armenians wanting to destroy and sell their country. If I look at what happened in the history, it has been under Serzh Sarkisyan and even Kocharian that we improved our army, statehood and sovereignty.

    If I look what happened under the rule of LTP, I see the selling of billions of dollars worth of machineries from the Soviet-factories in Armenia for a few million dollars in cash, and even worse, he sold Artsakh to the Turks, but thanks to the Russians, he didn't get away with that so easily.

    If the future presidents are AT LEAST as good as our current president, and hopefully each successor will perform better than it's predecessor, Armenia awaits a bright future.

      Did you hear about the new political party that was formed, separate from Levon's, because he was in dialogue with the Government? Of course it poses no threat, but still...

      But I agree Pres. Sargsyan is the best President we have had so far - let's just hope Armenians understand this come election day...

        Not strange.

        What Pres. Sarkisian is really saying is that just because I (Serj) have to show compliance politically with one of the principles (territorial integrity of the other party) during negotiation process by not recognizing the independence of NKR...this doesn't mean that we are not going to do it in heart beat if you get out of line.

        In other words what our good President is saying is that if you (Aliyev) if you cannot recognize the right to self determination of Artsakh then pull out of the talks, stop preaching from a document that you don't even recognize its basic principles, now that makes you (Aliyev) look like a fool.....and our President is right.

        Forcing Azerbaijan out of the talks would a a strategic win and an advantage for Armenia and NKR.

          In a way what Azerbaijan did at Kazan was just that. They wanted 12 points to be added in, which destroyed the already agreed upon Madrid principles. Just comes to show they are not serious, and the mediators should understand that Azerbaijan is not at all a suitable party for negotiations.

            Well I interpret it slightly differently.

            Our President has made a number of statements on different occasions criticizing
            Azerbaijani leadership for not preparing its population for compromises unlike Armenia.

            To me that says a lot.
            Politics is not about the pursuit of morality nor what's right or wrong
            Its about self interest at personal and national level often at odds with the above.
            Great politicians pursue the National interest and small politicians personal interests

              In the meantime, the future time, or the past time, you, Armenians, could claim even the moon. While these bombastic claims may satisfy the ego of Tigranakert, they mean nothing.

                Unfortunately kitty, they do mean something in modern day politics. As xxxx Western people like you don't give a xxxx about justice or human rights, nations like Turkey and Azerbaijan can get away with their crimes, and they are justifying their deeds with lies and falsifications which are becoming bigger everyday.

                Historically seen, Armenian territories are under occupation, but history and justice don't mean a thing in this world. Armenians have to realize that it's only might that makes right. Armenians should learn from their European (and Turkish) counterparts, we should become far more aggressive in our policy and should not think of what is "right" or "just", but only of what is beneficial to Armenia and Armenians.

                  LTP is not fake opposition. He commands a space in the spectrum of the opposition forces.
                  He seems to have a loyal following though weakening of late.
                  Whether you agree with him or not it is a different matter.

                  I am not nervous of LTP at all. As far as I can judge he is a spent force.
                  I would go as far to say he is “useful” as a political entity in society to exert force on the authorities to keep to the straight and narrow.
                  Short of a treasonable/undemocratic action, politically he has a nuisance value, mainly because
                  his party is all about him and not some ideology or core values say compared to the ARF.

                  Unfortunately the Presidents we have had have been bad, each to a different degree.

                  I would call a President good ( including the present one since he still has time to finish his term)
                  if he can change the unjust economic structures that exist in Armenia to the detriment of the welfare of its people.
                  I have in mind the oligarchic, monopolistic structures, the “encouragement” of emigration and dependence on foreign remittances to support families, etc.

                  As far as I am aware this is not even seen as an issue.
                  Only recently the minister responsible was stating things are not bad at all!!! because the demography of Russia is worse. What a moron.

                    Given what was once rightly ours and taken from us via genocide, ethnic cleansings, and wars - we have every right to claim what is historically ours in order to fortify the little land that we have left for the rich Armenian nation.

                      Aliyev Continues to Revise History

                      Azeri president Ilham Aliyev

                      BAKU (APA)—Azeri President Ilham Aliyev, in remarks Tuesday to the World Azerbaijani Congress, claimed that Yerevan and Zangezur were Azeri lands that were “granted” to Armenia, adding that Azerbaijan would spare no effort, including military, to ensure what he called its territorial integrity.

                      “Armenia knows very well that they are guests in Nagorno-Karabakh. The Armenian state was established in historical Azerbaijani land – Yerevan and Zangazur. The Turkic world was geographically separated, as Zangazur was given to Armenia,” said Aliyev while pledging to continue the talks.

                      Aliyev added that ensuring Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity is one of the major issues facing the country.

                      In his speech he noted that international organizations had passed resolutions on the Karabakh problem, which remained unfulfilled because of what he described as Armenia’s “unconstructive position”.

                      “Yerevan has to understand that Azerbaijan’s potential cannot be compared with Armenia’s capability. Azerbaijan’s economic potential is ten times greater than Armenia’s economic potential. Armenia has no power to compete with Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan’s military expenditure is 50 percent more than Armenia’s budget,” the president said, echoing remarks made in his speech at a military parade on June 26, Armed Forces Day.
