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.

      Re: Andre Agasi????

      Agassi's parents immigrated from Iran...his father is an Iranian Armenian who won a gold medal for Iran in boxing (Olympics) and mother is Assyrian. We like to think of him as Iranian first...hehehe...but then I'll admit we're biased...he has Armenian blood for sure and Armenians are among the best and most loyal citizens we have in Iran. We have had nothing but good come from our Armenians. The main supplier of mortadella salami in Iran was an Armenian whose company was named Arzouman, and there was not a single sandwich shop in Tehran that didn't use Arzouman products. There were two other Armenian companies that supplied lunch meats to Iranian delis and restaurants but I forgot the name...I will ask my Iranian Armenian friend.

          I guess cutting off the "ian" means your cutting off your "Armenian roots." Maybe thats what he means.

              In any case, Andre Agassi was featured in this month's Mosaix magazine along with other Armenian athletes. Regarding the match he won against Sargis Sargisian, known as the "Armenian Match," he was quoted as having said: "Well, I'm only half Armenian."

              Now maybe it's just overly proudful nature, but any true armenian, half or not, wouldn't have gone out of their way to point out they are only half... to me that just means he thinks of himself as less than Armenian, and to me that makes him useless in the big picture. Then again i could also just be reading into it too much as I tend to do.

              Oh and he's not half Assyrian, his mom's name is Betty and is American.


              OK, ONCE AND FOR ALL, LEAVE THE GUY ALONE!

              My relatives personally know the Agassi family, and this is the story, YES he is Armenian, and his mom is American but it's like she's Armenian too, makes good dolma too.

              Anyway, so when agassi was starting out, as a young teen, he and his family asked the rich armenian community to step up and support one of their own, BUT, the greedy armenians sorta said "piss off" we're not interested, so Agassi found support thru the anglo-community and he sorta didnt embrace being armenian for a little while, but he loves bing Armenian, and yes he even knows simple armenian..
