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.

      Ohanian would represent a continuation of the current ruling power whose ranks are filled with oligarchs. Much like Serzh, he will be forced to give these guys the preferential treatment they've been getting for the over a decade. Ohanian seems like a good person, and a competent military leader. But being president is about so much more than that. I recommend you listen to some of Pashinyan's speeches. The guy has clear ideas and detailed and well though out policies.

        It is good to see that such speeches do happen in Armenia's government.

          Our country needs Military leaders like Seryan Ohanian to make right decisions for our national interests. Under rule of Seryan Ohanian (2018-2027) Armenia will Destroy Azerbatan in Second Artsahk conflict.

            Normally during war or imminent military threat to a country, its population feels better to have a leader that has military experience (actual even better) and be able to deal with the Turks to our West besides running the country. Then you have the Turkic Azeries who want to attack Artsakh.

            The leader could appoint above type Armenian in his cabinet.

              Therefore, Seryan Ohanian will be new kind of leader of all time.

                This isn't some fantasy fiction military movie civilization that you like to pretend it is. That's not how politics works, specially when talking about a small country with multiple existential threats, many of which are not even military related. If we were electing leaders based on military experience Jirayr Sefilian would be president for life. Political leadership is about balancing between delicate foreign relationships, working through various power structures, and making difficult choices and comprises to guide your country to the best outcomes. My advice to you: post a little less, and learn a little more my young friend.

                Serzh and Kocharyan had the same military experience. Having military experience doesn't make you oblivious to corruption. Ohanian is part of the same power structure that due to not having the genuine support of the people, is dependent on these oligarchs who are able to get them votes in their local fiefdoms in exchange for being able to continue their disgusting abuse of the local population.




                ***
                and to clarify the earlier post by fed: Serzh had no problem with Dodi Gago and all his abuse and theft of our homeland while Dodi Gago was acting like a nice obidient fat dog who knew his place. Serzh only did something about Dodik when he got too ambitious and decided he wanted it all. And even by do something, all he did was shut him down politically, while still allowing him to continue all his economic plundering

                      Last two days theres been a 72 hour sit-in protest at Opera in Yerevan in regards to the once again price hike in electricity in the country. In just the past two year, the price has risen by 65 percent, and has gotten to a point where electricity itself now takes up 20-30 percent of people income. And this rise hasn't been due to investment in new power plants or infrastructure, but instead for the mismanagement of the ownership of the Electricity Network of Armenia. a 30% price hike two years ago was justified by a hike in the gas price. However, despite the gas price being lowered twice by Russia, the price has actually increased twice by the ENA, seemingly to pay for the bentleys and mansion for the various employees.

                      Ive been able to participate in the sit in and i couldn't be more impressed by the group of youth leading them. They are a bunch of kids in their late teens early twenties with no political affiliation. They by themselves negotiate with the police, mange every protester to make sure things remain peaceful, bring food and water for everyone, clean every inch the whole square as to not give the police any excuse to shut the protest down. It's really inspiring to see something like this. To see youth this invested in the future of the country instead of saying screw it, it is pointless, off to Russia/America - which was my impression of the youth in this country

                      The situation though has gotten to a breaking point. These price have gotten to a point where conditions are really not livable for the average citizen. The protesters have given the govt until monday to reduce the price or they shall march onto the presidential residence. I hope the government realizes what it has to do and lowers the prices.

                      First evening of protest-7pm


                      First night of sit-in 2AM


                      Morning after first night-6AM








                      2nd evening of protests
