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.

    This is a war of attrition.

    The weaker side resorts to war of attrition when it knows it cannot win a conventional war.
    BUT thinks it can wear the enemy down and demoralize it to a level where the other side will say it’s just not worth it.
    Also its loses will be smaller than a conventional war therefore perceived small relative to the objective.

    As long as the enemy thinks that it is making headway it will peruse this policy.
    It will be logical to increase the resources available since its a working strategy.

    We must refuse to take on the role of the goal keeper and try to score goals ourselves which will hurt the enemy.

    This is why we have to think ahead of the curve and ask ourselves, how many losses can we afford to lose for how long and what are the alternatives.

    If its "mini" war then we need to seek political support, covertly if necessary to move forward.

    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

          Does this give any clues?

            I'd wager that we're losing 50 men a year, just from this war of attrition, and it's been going on for a couple of years now. Apparently, the current situation is good enough accordingly to our MoD, otherwise they'd have done something to curb it. They like the status qou, because the alternatives are worse.
            From what i hear, lots of people are trying to NOT get into the army because 18 year old kids are getting killed on the border daily, and our MoD has made it very hard lately to avoid it by money. 4 or 5 years ago, it was much easier.
            the problem with few babies that were born in beginning of 90's is hitting hard.

              Actually total number of deaths per year (hostile and non-hostile) lately has hovered around 40 for us. This year has been the worst year of fighting in a long time. Last year we lost just 6 to Azeri hostile fire, year before that 14 http://razm.info/27785. There is a major escalation.

                    I doubt we paid full price for it anyway. We don't pay full price for any weapons from Russia, especially after newly signed deals.
