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

    Let's not forget one important factor: Western interest in Azerbaijan is tied to one thing, and one thing alone: oil. Let us also not forget, oil is a limitied resource, and in Azerbaijan's case, it's expected to run out by 2019, THAT'S A MEAGER 8 YEARS FROM NOW. After that, Azerbaijan will be of no significance for western economic interests. Then what? Can someone oh please answer that question??????????? for that reason, it is in the best interets of the west itself to maintain the status quo, because among the first targets in case war resumes will be the oil fields, of which Azerbaijan has little left of, and the west would not want to put at stake the remainder of what it does have. And that's a FACT, jack! Thus, the fact is peace in the caucasus suits the best interests of the west because war would cause an interruption in oil operations. In other words, peace until all the oil is drained, which isn't far from now.

    From a geopolitical aspect, NO matter how close and intimate Iran-Turkey and Russia Turkey relations get, as some would have you believe, it will NEVER, let me repeat that, NEVERRRRRRRRRRRRR suit the national interests of neither Russia, nor Iran to have a Turkey stretching from Istanbul to the Caspian sea. FOR THAT OBVIOUS REASON, Armenia will always hold major geopolitical significance. And the greater the gap between turkey and it's pan-turanic aspirations in Azerbaijan and beyond, the more secure Iran and Russia will feel. And once again, that holds true no matter how close and personal relations between iran-turkey and russia-turkey get. And why is that? because those countries will always be regional competitors, and in case relations get worse after the honeymoon, a small turkey is easier to deal with than once stretching from Istanbul to the Caspian. And that, you can take to the bank and cash you miserable, pathetic, self-hating F888K's..............

      Last thing Russia will do is ( an experiment, ) a silly move to lose the game.
      The oponent of Russia in that game is not Azerbajan , azerbajan is not even a player nithe armenia is.... thos are merely simple figures in the "Big Game" which is on for centuries...

        No, I think turks recognizing AG is much more realistic than you think... well Greater Armenia.... it is allredy greater than it was 20 years ago

                Looks like a good spot to drop for a drink.
                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
