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.

    FYI, there are a LOT of Armenians outside of Armenia so you can't just dismiss their opinions and wish it would go away.
    My point is: Because Turks massacred and expelled Armenians from Anatolia a new group is formed which we called diaspora. As I observe the diaspora Armenians are very different group than Armenians. Even I can claim that the differences between diasporans and Armenians are bigger that differences between Turks and Armenians. As a Turk I can not blame you from this situation since Turkey is the reason of this situation. I just make an observation. As I observed from this forum people here have turned to ordinary Americans after 90 years. I can not observe the Armenian spirit, feeling, lyfe style, etc here. At least, you are different than Armenians of our region. (Turkey, middle east, Armenia) That's why I use the term "real" Armenians. Not to insult you but to show the difference. I feel guilty of this situation as a Turk and I am sad to see how a big culture like Armenians are turning to Johnny's. All insults, blind hatred, racist posts are written of that style. Our regions people (Turks, Armenians, Georgians, Azeris, Persians, Arabs, xxxs, etc.) are not perfect people of course but this is not our style, this is not our way of living and thinking. We can never establish a healthy communication since you are western and we are eastern people.

        Cumanicus - are you suggesting that (diaspora) Armenians would be better off if they took the example of the Turks in Germany? You Turks are really making a lot of funny jokes today.

            Not only racism. You are simply different original Armenians. Your comments look like ordinary Americans who do not know the place of Germany on the world map, whose idea about world affairs is just "lets bomb fu*king middle east" Your stereotypic ideas about Turks sound like this.

                horrible, horrible, not only did you just insult Americans. You used an insulting American stereotype to compare Armenians too. You could get sued for that here in America.

                  My posts about "Americans" doesn't include racist opinions, just critisism. I don't care what Germans, Austrians, Swedish, etc. think about Turks or Muslims or any other group since all those societies belong to the racist people that I said. And you Armenians try to be the part of that racist society by imitating their bad behaviours or maybe you already be the part of that racist western society after 90 years. My last advice to you is: being "American" or "European" is not something "cool" to imitate. Unfortunately some foolish Turks do this too like you. Don't turn to a western nation, you belong to here and it is "cool" to be eastern.

                      The Tubes: Proud To Be An American
                      Spooner


                      I'm proud
                      to be an American
                      I'm proud
                      of the groovy things we've done
                      There's television, free religion, Rock 'n' roll, Standard Oil,
                      Times Square, Jimmy Darren, Corey Wells, and Smokey Bear,
                      price reduction, reconstruction, Peace Corps, and lots more
                      Culture that we got to lend

                      I'm proud
                      to be an American
                      And I'm proud
                      Had a great time bein' one
                      There's your school and my school and both of us in high school,
                      surfboards, cigarettes, homework, Southern Comfort
                      Boy's dean was real mean,
                      Made us keep our locker's clean
                      Failed nearly every class
                      Ditchin' was a gas

                      I'm proud
                      to be a young American
                      I'm proud, just think about it
                      All the far out things that we've begun
                      There's revolution, constitution, land, sea, and air pollution,
                      cold wars, hot wars, gas wars, and confrontutions,
                      constipation, consternation, open hearted palpitations
                      Muscular Dystrophy

                      I'm proud to be an American
                      Because we got department stores
                      full of cheap guitars
                      But when Sputnik plays 'em, you just go go go go

                      I'm proud to be an American--we got two chickens in every garage
                      And I wish every other kid could be one--in my country, the medium is the massage
                      'Cause it's impossible to give
                      Equality and justice to inferior foreigners
                      too jealous to trust us

                      Gimme your weak and your homeless
                      How 'bout checkin' the oil ah, fella?

                      I'm proud to be an American
