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.

  • Baron Dants's anti-corruption plan!

    Alright ladies and gents: an inside scoop to one of the actions that will revolutionize Armenia in the not too distant future!

    THE CREATION OF THE SPURK BUSINESS ASSOCIATION

    This is a project I WILL undertake (and no, I don't even need to be in government to do this).

    It is an idea that came to me when I heard many many armenians from the diaspora tell me that they would love to start a business in Armenia.....BUT! they are afraid of the corruption.

    My very simple idea to counter this would be to create an association of all diasporan businesses in Armenia (there are already quite a few, but maaany more are needed, we need MASSIVE investments for this to work out). This association will be affliliated with the armenian-american bar, the canadian-armenian bar, and every other armenian lawyer associations around the world (including Armenia's own). It would have a few full-time lawyers working for it full time, in Yerevan...with advice from the armenian bars around the world.

    If, a business affiliated with the organization is victim of corruption, it reports to the organization, who complains to the proper authorities. The complaints should have a lot of weight as the organization would have multi-million dollar investors behind it, that the government can't afford to lose. We can therefore expect quite a few corrupt officials to get fired....and many more to clean up their act.

    Some investment may be needed in the beginning, but it can eventually be self-sufficient if the members pay small fees to obtain this "protection". Once it has reached self-suffiency, local businesses can join (they could ideally join from the beginning, but the organization must first be strong enough to support all the potential members).

      There is already an anti-corruption assosiation in Armenia, its HQ is near the Hraparak, ironically its probably corrupt

      Who is going to fire who? those who needd to fire corrupt officials are corrupt themselves, the solution lies at the bottom, and only when there is deemocracy in Armenia will corruption end. Every official should be subjecct to immediate recall, this is only thing that will end corruption.

        Oh no, not the Marxist again...

        Behold of his wisdom for he has the answers to everything. If Marx was the prophet, he's the follower.

        Baron that seems like a very interesting idea, but I have my concerns nonetheless regarding corruption, since government leads to corruption no matter what.

        Armenia's currency is paper currency, baseless fiat money. You can talk about all the problems you want to fix, but not know that the problem lies int he system itself. The whole world is slave to this system of fiat money, one of the plancks of communism.

                  High ranked officials will fire lower ranked officials in order to prove that they are trying to fight corruption, so they can assure that the (potentially) HUGE diasporan investments will not be withdrawn. I'm not talking about sacking the minister of finance here. Baby steps...that might become big.

                  But besides that....I would also agree to tell you to GIVE COMMUNISM UP. Yeghav verchatsav...it's illogical to even think about going back.

                    You know, not to sound rude or anything, but I don't care. I mean we can argue time and time again if the whole international market must be brought down along with every government, but I enjoy talking about concrete steps. Fiat money, or monopoly money, I don't care...as long as I know that the money will allow every armenian to put bread on his table. Forget bread, I want them to get the khorovats.
