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.

    Lets look at the facts. The facts are like I stated. The days of fighting with swords are over. Miracles like Thermopaly or Yarmuk aren't possible anymore. It simply comes down to how many bombs you have and your capability in delivering them. Check wikipedia or look for military websites, pragmatically, armenia doesn't have any air power. There is a Russian air force base there with Russian aircraft, not Armenian.

    And if you read what the other armenian posters on this thread said:

    Russia can stave off Western influence and Armenia is virtually guaranteed protection against a Turkish attack (God-forbid).

Instead of making foolish statements like we need to oppose to Russia, all Armenians should be desperately trying to engage Russia by all means and measures.
    They at least understand and recognize the reality of the situation as i do.

    With today's modern warfare and the geopolitical situation of Armenia, Armenia is propped up by Russia. Its an uncomfortable situation for Armenians. Just recognize the facts. I recognize Armenia's tenacity in the difficult situation.

    Not to demean the Armenian nation and the Armenian people, but it is indeed surrounded by hostilities from all around. There is bad history between Armenia and everyone in the region, except maybe for iranians, i have no clue what the relationship is like with them.

    What do you really think would happen if Armenia confronted Russia?
    Most likey, the disadvantages Armenia has, would determine the outcome of Armenia's situation if it did result in war with Azerbaijan.

    Nobody picks their situation, their situation picks them.

          The last war the facts were also against us and guess who won the war, and go and read the thread about the Artsakh military.
          A gun doesn't kill a person, and a gun is as good as the man handling it. sorry to tell you but Artsakh is a war you never can win. The next time they start it we will go further till nothing is left of them.

                What a joke? Yeah, Armenia had $1 billion in aid from Russia, but the Armenian fighters did not have running water. El Asswipe, shut the xxxx up and stop trying to play the "I am pretending to be a Turkish intellectual and attempting to be the 'bigger man'", frankly, no one buys it.

                The reality is that Azerbaijan was well funded. They both had better technology sold to them by west and also their military was trained by west. They also hired mercenaries and were being supported also by Chechens. I would say the odds were overwhelmingly in the favor of Azerbaijan, but they failed miserably. In fact, most of the tanks and arms that were used by the Armenian side was actually taken from Azerbaijan.

                But seriously, you are stupid, to claim that a landlocked country with no resources had the financial "upper hand" against a oil rich nation like Azerbaijan is very absurd. One more thing, the war was not between "Armenia and Azerbaijan", stop making it seem like it was a war between Armenia and Azerbaijan when it was actually a war between Armenian villagers and Azerbaijan, you prick.

                      Sorry to hijack this thread but...

                      Really? Do you have more information/sources on this? It would make sense because he was such a vehement Arabist.
