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: Recognition of Armenian Genocide by USA

    looks like the azeris are uspet

    Azerbaijani Parliament appealed to U.S. Congress
    18:24 / 03/05/2010


    Azerbaijani Parliament adopted an appeal to the U.S. Congress in connection with approval of Genocide Resolution by House Committee on Foreign Affairs. According to Trend News, appeal was drafted by working group headed by Samad Seyidov –chairman of the Milli Majlis standing committee on international relations and inter-parliamentary relations.

    In the declaration of protest, Azerbaijani MPs express regret about Genocide Resolution passing.

    “In fact Armenian Genocide is figment of sick imagination. Armenian nationalists are not interested in studying of documents on 1915 events, as they take interest in spreading false rumors instead of revealing historical record. Armenians exterminated over 2 million Azerbaijanians and Turks,” the document reads. Azerbaijani MPs are also confident that resolution wil be rejected by the U.S. Congress.

    March 4, U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs approved Armenian Resolution by a vote of 23 to 22.

    In response, Turkey recalled its Ambassador Namik Tan from U.S. for consultations.

    A.G.

    the US should watch out, you dont want to upset the azeris, they'll start claiming you stole land from them, stole there nonexistent culture, they'll threaten war with you and never actually attack. The US is in quite a pickle here.

    Azerbaijan likely to withdraw Ambassador from U.S.
    14:29 / 03/05/2010


    Azerbaijan should bring up the issue of recalling its Ambassador from U.S to the Government and Foreign Ministry, Azerbaijani MP Gudrat Hasanguliyev stated commenting on the adoption of Armenian Genocide Resolution by the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs.

    According to him, Baku should take appropriate measures in response to the U.S. Congressmen’s decision. Besides, the fact that U.S. does not appoint an Ambassador to Azerbaijan for a while is a display of disrespect to Azerbaijan.

    “The protraction of the Ambassador’s appointment has concrete political goals. U.S. uses it as a tool to pressurize Azerbaijan,” the Parliamentarian said.

    As NEWS.am reported previously, March 4, the U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs adopted Armenian Genocide Resolution. After discussing it for several hours, the Committee approved Armenian Resolution by a vote of 23 to 22.

    L.A.

    Oh no, whos gonna spread the anti-Armenian bullxxxx now?

      Or even in Armenia. It would be much better to have Armenian congressmen, just look at how many jooish ones are there.
      For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
      to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.

        The ANCA is a means for Armenians running in politics including congress to get recognition. So not all the money is going to waste though I agree there might be better ways to manage it.

          Holly-crap. What kind of diplomat will actually say something so ridiculous. It's as if the Azeris are disparately trying to discredit themselves to the point that nobody will take them seriously.

              Is America's relationship with Turkey really more important than the recognition of truth? Who knows though, maybe Clinton's supposed opposition to the Armenian genocide resolution is a play to make it look like she did what she could, but in reality the resolution is meant to be passed. Besides, Turkey's threats are meaningless because US relations with Turkey will soon go back to normal just as it has been in France's and Canada's case.

                It differs, in one protest (organised by the Turkish government) they said "Armenian's and Greeks genocided 3 million Turk's".

                  Are you really surprised? You think US would recognize Armenian Genocide? US is Turkey's & Israel's b*tch, they're not going support us.

                      Re: Recognition of Armenian Genocide by USA

                      The last time an AG bill was in committee for a vote (2007), I saw on Youtube a few of the speeches committee members made. Of all the 'Nays', not one of them said Ottoman Turkey was innocent of Genocide. All of them affirmed the truth of the Genocide but said things like "now is not the right time", etc.

                      For those who watched yesterday's speeches, did any member claim Ottoman Turkey was innocent of Genocide ?
