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.

    Cumanicus, you're not a Turk if you say that you feel guilty of that situation. You're pretty much a traitor. You're probably a fool who thinks that "relocation" means "genocide". So don't try to pass for a Turk on this forum. I'm proud of my country, my nation and my history. Get the hell out and leave the country if you're not proud!
    Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable.

          cumanicus - obviously you are missing much. Even so - you are obviously well ahead of Deniz in almost every respect. My advice to you is to not believe everything you read or see on TV (in regards to what a "typical" American - if there is such a thing - might be like -or regarding what might comprise American culture (Again - if one can say there is one thing that is such). And er well i don't feel that I am at all "typical" in any event...and neither too are most...

              Armenia is a "western" nation. She has been for a very long time. That is, at her "core" she is, aside from the fact that there have been easternized influences. And Armenians in Armenia have a much greater cultural bond to Western Europe, than (with the exception of Georgia) to everything around them. Of coarse there are ancient Indo-European bonds with Iranians as well.

                  If the eye on your avatar belongs to you, I must say that it seem the eye of an eastern man.
                  But I can understand your position. Being eastern at USA, Europe is not something popular and you are trying to show you as the part of "western society" to make you accept by them. Ok, no problem for me, it is your life. Just an advice, you seem miserable lile some Turks who try to show them as western.

                    Hmm, winoman as a measurement unit for improvement of Turks. But thanks anyway.
                    Deniz is a stereotype herself. Noone takes serious to people like them who have no idea about anything.
                    Don't take eveything as accepting genocide good, critisisng diaspora bad. You need self-critisism too.

                      That would be fine cumanicus if you really had anything to seriously add concerning a critique of the Armenain dispora - and you haven't shown you really understand us at all yet or understand why we would adopt Western ways (in Western nations) for instance. Aditionally we find it amusing when Turks come here to dispense critisism just in general and specifically concerning anything having to do with the Armenain Genocide. Sorry - but (essentially) ignorant people (and this is not a racial statement per se - but because you are a brainwashed Turkish citizen - and this is true) should not be comming onto forums and dispensing critiscim and making comments in the presence of people who know a whole h ell of a lot more about these issues - in nearly every respect - then you do. You should be perhaps asking questions and enlightening us concerning how things are in Turkey and what and why - form your insider perspective - Turks might be saying and feeling certain things - trends on the street sort of thing - and even perhaps express your views concerning your history - but don't for a second think that you are preaching to us from a perspective of unique/special knowledge that you have and we don't (concerning the Armenains Genocide and history of this period) - and don't think that your shallow and uniformed critiques of us will elicit any response from us other then to make jokes and not take you seriously (at best) or in some cases - as when you and/or other Turks start blaming Armenains for things that just aren't true...etc - don't think - that when this concerns such as inssue that is dear to us - that involves our families and loved ones - who were killed in the most brutal and barbaric ways - and for those who survived (and lived through the most terrible and horrific of circumstances) and found their way to places where they could re-establish and make a living and provide for us - their offspring - a future etc that we won't shove your insensitivity and ignorance right back in your face. Sorry this is just reality. I like Turks - I really do - I have a number of close Turkish friends and even more Turkish aquaintances and I have been to Turkey a number of times - probably been more place in Turkey then you have (even if just briefly) - but I have a good understanding of Turks and I am not a hater or such - so please absorb and attempt to understand my words to you - I have perhaps a sliver of hope that I am hanging onto that perhaps you are not entirely stupid and naive.
