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.

      In the beginning, they supported Azerbaijan, only because Moscow was scared of breakdown of administrative borders and setups put in place during Soviet times. From their point of view, maintaining the status-quo helped maintain their control in the region. Later on, Russia fully reasserted herself as Armenia's ally. And it's payed off, since Armenia is the only pro-Russian republilc in the Caucusus.

        The Russians NEVER fully backed either the Armenians nor Azeris. They used both sides against the other. Moreover, DO NOT be fooled by the propoganda the Azeris spread of "1 billion dollars of Russian arms to Armenia." These arms were delivered to Armenia AFTER the ceasefire, and therefore played NO FACTOR WHATSOEVER IN THE OUTCOME OF THE WAR.

                There are more ways of giving support than weapons. One of the reasons why Azeris aren't so crazy about the idea of starting a conflict now is that Russia this time supports Armenia. In the beginning for Moscow it wasn't about using both sides against each other, since there was nothing to be gained there. It was about keeping the lid on the Gharabagh issue for dying hopes of still controlling the area, making formation of new governments and nations harmful to thise hopes.

                Also, last time I checked this was an Armenian forum, who here is going to know much less be fooled by Azeri propoganda.

                    I think the Armenian army has somthing to do with it also. But in all respects, Russia maybe a strategic ally and parther of Armenia, it is nonetheless pursuing its own national interests. If Russia really wanted to help Armenia, it would blockade Azerbaijan like its doing to Georgia now and like Azerbaijans ally Turkey is doing to Armenia. Turkey gives azerbaijan unconditional backing-in words and deeds and makes no effort to hide it. There is no power that has pledged unconditional support for Armenia, like the US to Israel currently.



                    In the beginning for Moscow it wasn't about using both sides against each other, since there was nothing to be gained there.
                    Yes, it was. And during some of the most toughest fights, we were not fighting Azeris, but Russians. Whenever the balanced was in favor of 1 side, the Russians supported the other.


                    Also, last time I checked this was an Armenian forum, who here is going to know much less be fooled by Azeri propoganda.
                    well if u are not aware of azebaijani propoganda i'd suggest you get a little more involved in political awareness b/c the enemy is at work and if you're not doing anything, then you are not helping.

                      In terms of what we are talking about here the numbers on each side and their equipment play a vital role.

                      The fight for the liberation of Mountainous Artsakh was hardly "between two more or less evenly matched sides." The Artsakhsis hardly had the numberical advantage over the Azeris, and for the most part they fought with what they captured from the enemy.
                      Yes, and the billion dollar shipments of military aid had no impact. And please do not argue this never happened, it is the very thing you would spurt out when trying to argue Armenians and Russians are best mates.

                      The Armenians did NOT have planes or an air force, the Azeris did. Moreover, the Azerbaijanis had hired thousands of Mujahadeen, Chechen, Russian and Ukranian merceneries.... while the Armenians had barely enough money for bread. The situation was A LOT more despair in Armenia than Azerbaijan. Moreover, the Azeris were advized by NATO Turkish Generals on military tactics and supplied NATO arms to Azerbaijan for use against Armenians.

                      There, the Armenians were overwhelming outnumbered, outgunned and only a braindead baffoon would see this brilliant, glourious victory as an "even match".
                      If they didn't have an air force how the hell did they fight an air war over NK?
                      I don't recall saying anything about it not being a glorious victory.

                      At the present time noone in Armenia is preparing for an invasion of Turkey. We are speaking of our long-term, strategic goals. Geopolitics change all the time. Who knows, one day the Americans may just need to use our territory to attack turkey. It wasn't too long ago when the US was "chums" with Iran.
                      Yeah, who knows... Maybe we will see Nato fight Nato!

                      Yeah, I'd say my figurative way of speaking was close enough.

                      Moreover, you are assuming that the only way to liberation of our lands is only between a war strictly b/w armenia and turkey. forgetting geopolitics? forgetting sponsorship of great powers?.
                      Ah yes, as always your kind relies on the "great powers".
                      You will never learn.
                      Do yo have dreams of a neo-Byzantium? Ask a Greek or Serb or Russian what they think of Armenians. You'll get a reply that they don't think at all, at best.

                      precisely, and that is why we have and must maintain the strongest army in the caucasus region. As for iran, they are the closest ethnic relatives of Armenians and the best friend and neighbor we have.
                      You should maintain the strongest army, but don't isolate yourself from those directly around you while dancing to the tune of a "great power" who you have no direct link to, from who for a number of reasons you are becoming more and more isolated. One day people wake up and they realise they are alone. If only we had some of the balls Georgia seems to have. I'd also say that ethnically we have much in common with the people we live amongst in the caucasus, we're all "cherniy kavkazskii" aren't we?

                      Don't you get it man? We are not sane. It is they who believe Armenia will reconquer it's historical lands and form a Greater Armenia, who are sane. Somehow they believe they have everything behind them, to back these delusional rants, even history which to most realistic people actually leans more towards proving how absurd this all is!

                      I had stopped reading that annoying person's comments. Most probably he is a "Polsahai" who has been watching a lot of Rambo films and reading GI Joe magazines. So now he wants to show us how much of a military expert he has become.

                      Please ignore him from now on, when you reply to him its like hitting a wasps nest.
                      You're all talk. Empty, dangerous drivel. And when someone talks back, you resort to ad hominems. You couldn't reply when I countered your utterly stupid claims of Iran destroying US Fleets in the Persian Gulf with Sunburn missiles and you can't reply now. Instead you'll just keep talking from your pulpit and exchanging :cheers: emoticons with those that agree and ignoring anyone who opposes you, much like the politician who will give his speech and then not have time for questions.
                      For all your talk if Azeri forces crossed into NKR lines tomorrow you'd still be posting, carrying on your patriotic fight on the forums of the internet, because you're too busy to do anything else, because you have a business or some other excuse to take care of that is stopping you from boarding that plane bound for Armenia.
