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: What you think about Eurasian Union?

    If it is like the EU no unless everyone else joins and leaves us no choice!

    You know why? Look at Greece!

    What kind of union is this when a little bit of trouble they push you to one side? The same people who turned a blind eye to us! Typical euro trash! Now we are going to join who? Unless everyone is in a block then no, if everyone else is joining sides we have no choice.

      We should not jump into anything. We should wait and see what this union turns into.

        I want of course close strategic partnership with Russia, but when it comes to economy I want a more diverse amount of relations, with CIS, Iran, and EU. Our President right now is in Brussels meeting with EU officials and we may soon sign free trade agreement with EU which will be a good boost to us.

        Being a member of the EurU does not imply Armenia will not have close ties with other nations. As Putin outlined the EurU, it is more economic than political. Obviously it will lead to a more political direction but again, it will be based out of Moscow, not some random European capital as is the case with the EU. Moreover, everyone will know that Moscow calls the shots, where as in the EU they pretend it is Brussels but really it is Berlin, and Paris to a lesser extent.

        Ideally I would not want Armenia to join any unions, but since our embattled and resource-less nation is surrounded by hostile powers, it is in our interest to align with a strong nation like Russia. I really believe that the EurU would also ease the choke-hold the Armenian oligarchs have over the economic life of Armenia.
        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.

          Well EU has many flaws, no doubt about that. If EurU is just an economic union, with no political implications like that of the EU, I would support us joining it, but I still would want us to have diverse economic relations with other states as well. Our security relations are based in CSTO and other military agreements with Russia. I doubt this union would do much on the security end.

            If all CSTO nations were members then the EurU could do what the EU has failed to do, have a military. But I do not think it would work that way. Just as the West has EU and NATO, Russia will wish to keep CSTO and EurU separate.

              and I hope the Armenian leaders are using this "Ace in the hole" to its last drop........to better Armenia's independance and sovereignty.
