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.

    I think something very bad was caught in ministry, especially in supply dept. so after removal of the chief there Movses Hagopian is appointed as deputy Defence minister in charge of supply dept.
    An old guard is appointed that has a proven record. Maybe also this is in light of necessary import of armaments?
    David Donoyan was sacked?

      BUT NEVER GIVE THEM NATIONALITY/VOTING RIGHT just because he fears diasporans would vote for a pro-west (assuming) government which might threaten a dummy project like the Eurasian Union.
      You are an outright egoist my friend.



      Excuse my ignorance, but what's the difference between a diasporan and a local?
      Do you really think all locals are FOR EEU and diasporans are against it? Come on man..you're too smart of a man to think like that.
      Thing is you go into panic mode so quickly...

      Diasporian speaking English...NATO has inflitrated Armeniaaaaaaaa
      The only people who should be voting on laws are the ones who will have to live by them. This is common sense logic over which many wars have been fought. You can post all the sarcastic pics you like but the most sarcastic thing in you posts continues to be your argument.

        You are right.

        First the ruling elite run the country so badly .... enriching themselves ...

        In desperation the people leave the country en mass.

        Then the elite says we can change and do what we like here because you are not here. ....

        ... By the way learn the language and adapt yourself in your new country you are living in ....

        .... AND make sure your kids talk the local language as if they are local so they will be successful .....

        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

          You keep contradicting yourself, it's becoming a joke.
          You said diasporans should not have voting right. Cool.
          Then you said the only ones who should be voting on laws are the ones who will have to live by them. Huh?

          Let's be clear here. According to you, a fellow Armenian should not be given Armenian nationality (which is a God given right) because it's more important for Armenia to 'safely' stay in something like the EEU.

          Someone would only say this if:
          a) They're paid by Russia to promote their agenda
          b) Is Russian

            I wish this was true ... “something very bad was caught in ministry”

            Nothing was caught. The lorry run into a wall and then they realised things were not good.

            I remember sometime back when some civil society activists wanted the ministry of defence audited.

            On this forum the idea was ridiculed. I had supported the idea. Obviously it was never taken up by the ruling bodies.

            When its realised something is wrong after a mishap the reason is very simple. Its called bad management.

What you seem to not understand is that there is big potential in things like EEU. Due to globalization, world markets have become linked and those controlling lets say the USA economy can control the world economy since due to globalization these economies are linked and move together. We saw this in the great recession we just experienced. Many nations want to form unions now to protect themselves from such manipulations and the EEU is just one of those examples. In theory the EEU is a great idea but only time will tell if it works in practice. The problem for Armenia is lack of borders with EEU countries although it seems Armenia has found a way around this issue.
              Do you consider that the fact why many Armenians left Armenia is because they disagree with how the country was ruled ?
              They left BECAUSE of all the bad things. That doesn't make them more or less Armenian than you. They should be able to have something to say because Armenia is still their country.
              No doubt if Armenia did great economically many would come back.

                In a short time after implementation I expect our fire controll and surveillance systems to become very accurate to modern standards.
                I think maybe we were allready using Gps or even GLONASS navigation systems, but if not in agreement, those can be turned off and blind an area any time.
                What is your thoughts people?
                Good news indeed. Not sure how many of our equipment is GPS enabled, but everything should be like target finders. There is another system coming online...completely open to EVERYONE.

                  Nothing you say here has anything to do with the fact that only those who have to live with the laws should be allowed to vote on them. If the diasporans pass bad laws and make things worst they will not have to live with the consequences but those in Armenia do. The fallacy that many of you seem to be running into is the assumption that if diasporans were allowed to vote then good laws would be passed and things would be better... This is a fallacy, it is a false assumption with no legitimate argument. If diasporans were allowed to vote lets say Raffi won the last election. How would things be better? Raffi is a CIA spook who would simply replace overlords and nothing more. He had zero plans to make anything better and all he kept saying was change. That is exactly what happened in Ukraine. Go ask them how happy they are now. Replacing one corrupt system with another is stupid especially when you realize how costly it is.

                    I remember many years ago I was involved in a system which used GPS.
                    GPS was the only system available at the time.

                    In those days GPS was deliberately configured to give inaccurate reading for safety reasons, only the military had the very accurate service.

                    In order to overcome this situation the said system firstly established the coordinates of the current location using GPS and then considering the error factor rebroadcast the correct data for receivers to display as usable data.

                    A system of this nature would not be practical in a global context but very doable and useful for a small territory such as Armenia.
                    Maybe our boffins can come up with something like this as a redundancy as well as not being dependent on third party entities.

                      Yes I remember the built in error system as well. It did result in some frustrating errors when working around congested areas. Having our own system would involve making/buying our own satellites and launching them. I think the opportunity cost here is too high. Most of our weapons are not satellite guided anyways.
