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.

    No, I'm saying 1) The most famous Armenians come from Armenia (e.g. Sasuntsi David, Vartan Mamikonyan, etc) 2) There are certain people especially in America who may have last name armenian but they do not speak language, they do not care about armenian culture, etc. Those people are NOT ARMENIANS! Many of those Armenians since they live and breath american culture are wh-ores plain and simple the common side effect of American culture on women.

        What if there parents never taught them about the culture, or only spoke english with them. How does that make them less Armenian?

          I agree, somewhat. The thread obviously refers to Armenians who are famous, or popular, not just in Armenia, but in America and around the world. I highly doubt most people know about Sasuntsi David, therefore he is not considered as famous, given this thread. I don't like most of the people on that list anymore than you do, but if they are biologically Armenian, and they are famous, they are considered famous Armenians.

            Why do you put all these Americanized Armenians?? Put real Armenians from Armenia or Armenians famous in Soviet armenia[/QUOTE]

            So because your not from Armenia, or your americanized that makes you less of an Armenian..give me a break man.

              Sasuntsi David and Vartan Mamikonyan are famous to Armenians, but that's not even the kind of famous we're talking about. It's like trying to group George Washington with Elvis Presley, yes those armenians are famous b/c they're noted in history but they aren't celebrities.

              There are certain people in armenia who are very grateful for all the money and support that comes their way by means of "fake armos" and there's plenty of stansi's who don't care about the culture and only speak armenian and know something about armenia b/c they were born there and there was no way around it.


              And as for why most of the famous Armo's I listed were not stanci's, i was goin on famous for everybody as in a global perspective, almost no one knows or cares who sasuntsi tavit, vartan mamigonian, etc are, other than armenians, however lots of non armos know the people i listed therefore they are more famous

                Nowadays most famous and generous Armenian is:
                Kirk Kirkoryan
                who donated for rebuilding Armenia more than $300,000,000. May God prolong his life, in good health, for two centuries!

                And another outstanding man who lives in Armenia is:
                Karen Vardanyan
                he is sponsor of the “Sasuntsi David” cartoon which will be introduced on January 25, 2010. In addition he is one of the best promoters of the Armenian traditional cultural heritage and an exceptional example of a rich, young & generous nowadays Armenian patriot.

                Happy Christmas to all Hyeclub members and the two Armenians above.
