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

    Just returned from a 4 day trip to Artsakh, got a chance to visit the front lines in the Agdam region, and walk through the trenches, less than 200 M from the Azeri side. The region was calm relative to other regions, the last violation had taken place 3 days before. The captain of the post and soldiers seemed to be in good spirit, and seemed to be proud to be doing what they were doing.

    When I asked the captain what he thought about the conflict and possible solution, he said that we would all love to have peace, and not have to deal with the death and violence, unfortunately though, we have an enemy hungry for blood that wants no compromise, so this conflict will go on until the enemy is defeated so thoroughly, that it will not dare to pick up arms again. He said last time we simply wanted NK, and we ended up with 7 of their villages along with NK, but that seemed to not make them understand, so let them come again, because they will lose more this time.

    I didn't get a chance to have a long talk with the soldiers, but my friend did, and he seemed to get a similar sense from the soldier. I saw the soldier joking with my friend, letting him mess around with some of the arms he had on him, and having a good laugh over it.

            Could he introduce some minimal time or periods of service in the army like the Israel so for Armenians that long live or have double passports outside of Armenia?

              Could you ask him if (though he will probably not give anywhere near an explicit answer but you may be able to elude to the real answer based on his expressions) if Armenia is aggressively/demanding more missile systems, jet fighters, etc from Russia?

              Obviously so much is classified but I think Armenia deserves more armament. It seems Armenia has just enough to defend itself but not enough to counter.

                Is it realistic to expect the CSTO or Russia to intervene in a future Karabakh conflict on the side of Armenia?

                  If Armenia is gonna acquire newer equipment such as T-90 tanks, artillery systems, or Mi-28 helicopters to counter the advanced equipment that Azerbaijan recently has been stockpiling? And is Armenia planning on developing a domestic weapons industry for the production of small arms?

                    Please ask about any developments in K3 or VAHAN production (or the defense industry in general). Any chance of S400 deployment in 102nd base?

                      Many videos of Movses Hakobyan's briefing to journalists if you click on the link http://hetq.am/eng/news/16379/artsak...%9D-video.html

                      Artsakh DM Hakobyan: “A retreat of Armenian forces from the frontlines would be followed by war” (Video)

                      14:24, July 9, 2012
                      Recently, a group of journalists travelled to military units in Artsakh under an agreement brokered between the Investigative Journalists NGO and the Artsakh Ministry of Defense.

                      There, reporters had a chance to converse with soldiers and officers on the frontlines.

                      Afterwards, they met with Artsakh Defense Minister Lieutenant General Movses Hakobyan. The group spent the better part of an evening around a campfire and DM Hakobyan expressed his views on a number of topics and answered questions.

                      He categorically stated that a retreat of Armenian forces from the frontlines would be followed by the outbreak of war.

                      Just a moment...
