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.

    But I must say if there is no such thing as armenian cuisine than let’s admit there is no such thing as "azeri" anything (azeri language, azeri literature, azeri culture, azeri LAND etc etc etc) what one cant say about ARMENIAN ))))

      Azerbaijan spends huge resources to discredit Armenia

      17.07.2009 19:39 GMT+04:00

      /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Our propaganda on Karabakh conflict settlement is on a very low level, and instead of introducing Armenia’s position, our media comment on Azerbaijan’s statements, PAP parliamentary faction’s press secretary Aram Safaryan finds.

      Azerbaijan, he says, spends spends huge resources which mostly aim to discredit Armenia on international level and conceal Azerbaijan’s internal problems.

      Answering a PanARMENIAN.Net correspondent’s question as to whether the state took any measures to improve the situation, Safaryan said he did not see any real steps in that direction.

        Opening museums such as this one is a good, small step in countering propaganda.

        NKR originally an Armenian territory

        17.07.2009 12:44 GMT+04:00

        /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Geology museum has been operating since May 1996 in NKR Kashatagh region. Unique exhibits of Kura-Arax culture are stored here. According to museum director Livera Hovhannesyan, “By opening the museum we’ll prove to international community that NKR is originally an Armenian territory. Over 5000 years old tombstones have been discovered here, providing ample research material.”

        Besides, the museum is operating a Fame Hall featuring photos and materials dedicated to Artsakh national liberation war heroes, PanARMENIAN.Net journalist reported from Kashatagh.

          Today.Az » Society » Russian bestseller magazine makes gross mistake related to Azerbaijan - PHOTO

          17 July 2009 [14:26] - Today.Az

          Tourism & Rest, Russian bestseller magazine with 90,000 issues sold every week, calls into question the facts about Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity.

          Day.Az has today received a letter from reader Ali Ganiyev which testifies to it. The letter reads: "Tourism &Rest has published a small article Disputable Tatik and Papik (Stepanakert, Nagorno-Karabakh) together with the same picture of the Azerbaijani monument that Armenians used in a footage in Eurovision-2009 song contest, which also was a gross mistake related to Azerbaijan.

          The article also describes the Nagorno-Karabakh as an independent state, gross violation of international principles. The staff of the magazine need to know that Nagorno-Karabakh is an integral part of Azerbaijan which is proved by the UN General Assembly resolutions. Entire world community, based on international law, recognizes Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity. It is noticeable that architectural monument “We-our mountains” is located not in Stepanakert, but Khankandi, Azerbaijan’s original land. We are sure that some pro-Armenia forces were involved in publication of this article who want to appropriate Nagorno-Karabakh also by monuments located in Azerbaijani lands.”

          Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry spokesperson Elkhan Polukhov said the ministry has always studied such issues and it will instruct Azerbaijani embassy in Russia to take steps to study this fact, too.

            All monuments in Nagorno-Karabakh are of Azerbaijani origin: archeology institute director
            18 July 2009 [12:12] - Today.Az

            “All archeological monuments in Nagorno-Karabakh belong to Azerbaijan,” Azerbaijani National Academy of Sciences Archeological and Ethnography Institute Director Najaf Museibli said while commenting on Armenian media reports on “archeological finds” by Armenian scholars which allegedly belongs to “Tigranakert” town in Nagorno-Karabakh.

            “There have neve been any Armenian towns and monuments in Nagorno-Karabakh. Armenians settled in Nagorno-Karabakh only after Iran and Russia signed Turkmenchay treaty in 1828. “Tigranakert” is another lie by Armenia. There are many ancient monuments of Azerbaijani origin in Nagorno-Karabakh,” he said.

                look at how far they go to discredit Armenia. I really do hope Armenia responds to these retarded claims. I mean Armenia keeps quiet about some things but these accusations can not go unresponded. how can Christian monuments belong to muslim azeris? The sad thing is that there are azeris who actually believe this crap.

                  Because they try to tie their history with Christian Caucasian Albania and try to claim descent from them in order to claim all the Armenian monuments that lie within today's Azerbaijan.

                  The sad thing is not that there are Azeris who believe this, the sad thing is that all Azeris believe in this and this propaganda spreads to foreigners who in turn believe it given the lack of response by the Armenian side.

                    azeris dont even know there own history. A while back u had posted an article:
                    "There were some Islamic monuments there, which they could point to and say, "This is our heritage," but a majority of the monuments were Christian. There were churches, there were tombs, there were khachkars, and all sorts of things that could not be Islamic. Therefore the Azerbaijani authorities began a campaign saying, "We are actually the descendants of the Caucasian Albanians. They were our ancestors. They used to be Christian and they converted to Islam. And we are them."

                    At the same time, to be in Turkey's good books, they claimed that they are the descendants of the Oghuz Turks – the Kara Koyunlu, Ak Koyunlu, etc. – and the various tribes.

                    This is a contradiction. One is a central Caucasian tribe; the other is a Central Asian tribe. How could you have two ancestors so different from each other? You must be a mixture of races. Well, they said no, we are Albanian and the Turkish population has been in this part of the world for over 2,500 years.:

                    Like another article said “Any other country would have filed complaint against Azerbaijan. But what are we doing? We are just laughing, avoiding to see the reality.”

                    if u go on youtube and talk to any azeri, and i know youtube is full of idiots, they all believe this nonsense and they fail to do research on there own. when i ask them to read nonazeri history books they tell me to read non-Armenian history books. They are so brainwashed that they cant comprehend the difference between fact and fiction.

                      Why is this coming from the Az side including the spoksperson name and nothing from the Armenian side.

                      Are they running the Armenian Defence Minitry PR department?

                      It seems to me propaganda on their side and incompetance on our side.

                      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
