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.

We'd be so strong, so strong that we would not even be toys of Russians and Americans...

      It'd be great if Greeks were not removed from Anatolia and Turks were not removed from Greece.. If only Bulgarians did not massacre all those people.. And Armenians were still in Turkey; Karabagh conflict never happened.. well not much problem with Georgia, however I'd like to have a non-Soviet history in her history books. Arabs would never sided with Britishs..

      And I'd be living in South Georgia now, maybe I could go to a university at Tiflis, a simple life there under the skirts of Caucasus.

      If only... if only... all those things were away from us.. all of that hate within the people, bloody politicians, militaristic heads...

      I wonder if my grandsons and granddaughters could see an union such as that again.. Will they be able to see Greek shop-owners and Armenian restaurants next to Turkish markets again in Istanbul? Would a Muslim could be able to pray in Yerevan again and an Armenian could be raise wheat again in Van?

      Maybe not a state-union.. Maybe its too late for Greece and Bulgaria.. Thats really utopic; but they would be great..

      I've met with all people from this corner of the world. Georgians, Greeks, Bulgarians, Turks, Kurds, Armanians, Arabs, Lazs, Cherkezs, Abhazs... and many others; and I could simply say:

      We are so alike.

      ..a British or a French can not be that close to me. They are really "foreigners".
      It seems some one is missing so much Ottoman Empire...LOL

        Someone is missing the peace. And if somes are missing an empire, its those who talk about an empire with a less-known history which were collapsed thousand years ago.

          Its true that we are part of each others civilization, and that will not change.Peace amongst us will automatically reap great benefits to all of us, but not peace at any cost.
          "All truth passes through three stages:
          First, it is ridiculed;
          Second, it is violently opposed; and
          Third, it is accepted as self-evident."

            There cannot be peace until there are turks. Turks and peace are not compatible.

              It's the state that creates the Turks, otherwise they are just humans.

                  Before they were Turks, they were mostly Mongloids. It started with some Turkic tribes and they infested all of Anatolia creating the land stealing, genocide denying, history twisting Utopia that is now called Turkey.

                    I did not say "peace at any cost".

                    Well, its also interesting to see that those people hate every single Turk. They do not even see them as "humans" so I think, what happened in Hojali was not an 'accident'. It very obvious that mind can easly go into bloody business.

                    To be honest, I see no difference between Turkish ultra-nationalists and Armenian ultra-nationalists.

                    Killing OR wanting to kill for revenge do not make it a 'better' massacre.
