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.

    Sorry, but I'm gonna have to disagree with you there. Armenia has everything to gain. They have the land that Turks took away. That's what we deserve. The land they took away. If Turkey accepts the Genocide we are getting exactly what we deserve. Your probably thinking, "Oh that can't be right." Oh, but it is. If I beat you up and take your bike and then a few years later you see it on my porch but it's fixed up and has a new paint job wouldn't you have the right to take it back?

    Same with Turkey the monuments, people, and government is basically the new paint job in the land they took from us.

    Just because Turkey recognizes the Genocide does not mean they will give anything to Armenia. Nor will this mean we are in a position to take anything today. My point is not if we deserve justice. My point was recognition of the Genocide may not grant us the justice we want. All a turkish apology is is empty words.

Because we are taught that no genocide had taken place. And also you are taught a genocide had taken place. So we all dont know anything, we just repeat what we were taught. So we must see the facts.
      There are facts. There's proof of photos identified as dead Armenians. You want proof? Only 10 million Armenians left in the whole world and we were the first race to exist. While only in Turky there is 72 million? Woah, something wrong with that situation?

        If they don't give it back, we have the right to rush in with force and literally blow their houses and take our land back.

          Okay then tell me this.

          If we are faking the Armenian Genocide, why?

          Why would we choose Turkey and not Azerbaijan.

          Why not another country. Why a Genocide? Why 1.5 Million?

          For what? Are we that selfish?

          You tell me.

            Did you forget that with only a low number of men with muskets and wooden rifles we beat Azerbaijan when all we had was help from Russia and the U.S.?

            They had high-tech weapons and help from 6 other countries. Yet they couldn't win again huntsmen with wooden rifles?

            Wow, if your country thinks that your going to win because of numbers then you really are stupider than I thought.

              Please check the link below and look at the maps chronologically. You will easily see why. Blue are Turks.

              http://tr.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C3%BCrk_tarihi
              Those maps neglected the "Indians" of North America. Everyone knows they are of Turkic stock.

              Sloppy maps!

                  That may need to be our focus, but for the future.

                    Just because it was not taught in Turkish schools does not mean it is not reality. If you are genuinely interested in the topic then you can find the information to formulate your own understanding on this issue.

                      Ok then, let me explain by repeating my words on the other forum; Both you, my Armenian friends and the people in my country were cheated and are being cheated. But in the near future this hostile fog will be cleared and we will live in a peace as we did in the last 1000 year. Genocide is a virus between us, but if we can solve this problem with mutual effort in the near future we will be close friends as countries. I believe in this. Because antagonism has no benefit for both sides. BUT THE BIGGEST MISSION IS ON THE YOUTH.

                      As it says; "OLD POLITICIANS DECIDE WAR BUT YOUNG PEOPLE DIE THERE"

                      And we can be peaceful youth of two neighbour countries.
                      Im back and ready to debate.

                      Gmd..*sigh* took the words right out of my mouth.

                      Thanks.

                      Also, if you are that interested in the Armenian Genocide why don't you take it up with higher sources instead of a Armenian Forum?

                      You must be smarter than that. If your gonna get at it then call up the Armenian embassy and the Turkish embassy and talk with them.
