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: Nagorno-Karabagh: Military Balance Between Armenia & Azerbaijan
Military Vows Sackings Over Deadly Shooting
Several army officers are currently under investigation and will be sacked in connection with the latest non-combat death of an Armenian soldier, the Defense Ministry said on Thursday.
The soldier, Lyuks Stepanian, was shot and killed by a fellow conscript, Davit Khachatrian, in still unclear circumstances on May 15. Another soldier from their army unit deployed in northern Tavush province was seriously wounded in the incident.
Khachatrian was taken into custody and charged with murder. He will face a lengthy prison sentence in found guilty. Few details of the criminal investigation into the shooting have been made public so far.
Artsrun Hovannisian, the Defense Ministry spokesman, said the ministry is also conducting a separate internal inquiry. “After the internal inquiry is over, relevant people will be punished. There are some officers who will avoid prosecution but will be relieved of their duties,” Hovannisian told RFE/RL’s Armenian service (Azatutyun.am). The commanders of the regiment and the battalion where the soldiers served as well as their deputies could be among those officers, he said.
Hovannisian added that criminal charges could be brought against other, lower-ranking officers, including the commander of the soldiers’ platoon.
Defense Minister Seyran Ohanian personally promised sackings when he was confronted by furious and grief-stricken relatives of Stepanian on Saturday. Ohanian met them after they threatened to take the dead soldier’s body to Yerevan and put it on display outside a government building.
It is still not clear why Khachatrian opened fire on his comrades. Military officials say only that the shooting was preceded by a dispute between him and Stepanian.
Representatives of Armenia’s human rights ombudsman, Karen Andreasian, visited the arrested soldier earlier this week. One of them, Yeranuhi Tumaniants, said Khachatrian assured them that he was not ill-treated in custody. Asked whether he explained why he shot the two other soldiers, Tumaniants said, “He couldn’t go into details because he was in a severe psychological condition.”
The Armenian military and Ohanian in particular pledged to toughen the crackdown on army crimes resulting in non-combat deaths after the chronic problem gained a greater public resonance about three years ago. Dozens of army officers have been fired, demoted or prosecuted since then. Human rights activists say, however, that the military is still not doing enough to address the problem.
