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.

Originally posted by IAmMadAtACUghh you alway make these short little responses that add nothing to the subject at hand. As I said, in my family stories as well as the well known history of the genocide, the men were taken first, leaving the women and children for the death marches. If you can tell me how thousands of starving Armenian children and mayrigs could have overtaken a band of Turkish soldiers in the desert, I'd love to hear it. Otherwise don't belittle their memory by calling them sheep that let everything that happened happen to them. Man, not only are you wrong about the current state of Armenia, but your Armenian history views suck too. And don't' you dare just say something like the truth hurts to respond, I want a real addressing of the issues I brought up on why you were wrong.

Wow Hayq, you disappoint me. Though, my opinion about you doesnt matter I still think you are being way to immature, but that has to do with your age. Thank you for saying things like that about our ancestor's. All I know is thank God that your great grandparents survived the Gencoide. If they did. If they were in it at all.
You talk about Armenians not being united and yet, you call some of them sheep. Very well done hayq.
Edit: I just read over your comment about your grandfather. I guess they were in it.Last edited by XxgoeyxX; 01-03-2005, 03:39 PM.You can't hold a man down without staying down with him.

Relax. The one thing Armenians can learn from this is that they are very split on issues. We could have won, many Armenians knew of what was going to happen, but they either ran or kept their mouths shut. Why did the Armenians go join the Ottoman Army? Because they were not very bright and like the sheep they are they follow their leader.

So on one side we have Hayq saying the genocide happened because we never rebelled and were too loyal, and the Turks say the genocide happened because we didn't join the Ottoman army and went into all out rebellion! What the hell, we have two interpretations of history to explain the same event, and I think BOTH of them are stupid and wrong.
Also, ironic how you call Armenians "not bright" when they were the freaking intellectuals of the Ottoman Empire. When we were gone Turkey went stupid cause we were the backbone holding them up, intellectually, economically, etc.

Originally posted by IAmMadAtACThat's what happens when you are in such terrible conditions. I resent you passing judgement on our ancestors as weak without ever having gone through the situation yourself. If you had lost everything and was sent out into the desert, I'd like to see your singlehandedly start an insurrection of starving old people, women, and children with no weapons against Turks with guns. Even if they succeeded the Kurds would have gotten them, completely unprotected now. Trying to say what the genocide victims should have done when you well know they were in an impossible situation is plain idiotic.
I would never be sent to the desert, my good man. Because only sheep believe that after all teh murder that has gone on around you, that you are going to be sent to a safe place to live.
Here is another thing, Armenians say that Turks are stupid, if this was true, they would have easily taken teh weapons from the Turks when they were asleep. It is HIGHLY possible, it has happened MANY times in other events.
I am talking about before 1915. What idiots believe such a thing with so much evidence before them, with so much aid being given by Russia and they just join the phucking Turkish Army? No...they died like sheep...
