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.

          Agassi's father is hye, his mother is not. As far as his personal feelings are concerned he has been conspicuously silent about his hyness. It is not his fault. He may have had an upbringing "away" from things armenian. Unlike Prost, former formula one racing champion, whose mother is armenian, and his father french, who proudly proclaims his hyness when asked about it or Nalbandian who equally acknowledges loudly his armenian background, Agassi remains disconcertingly mute on the subject. However, we shoud make allowances, I don't know nor pretend to know how he deports himself in his private life. He could be a staunch hye in the four walls of his mansion. I am not aware of any significant donations or grants that he might have given the Armenian sport federation for the propagation of tenis in Armenia. If he could build a dozen indoor arenas and other facilities in the mother country it will speak volumes about his sentiments. Many hyer hide their origins , in the celebrity stakes, for reasons who they themselves only know.

              People please!!!!!!! Al you have to do is watch a documentary called "Armenian Americans" and you can see Andrei Agassi talking about his Armenian background and the types of Armenian food he likes.

                I didnt read the whole thread but Agassi said himself on Larry King that hes Armenian.
                Ill try to find the clip on youtube, but if you google Andre Agassi Larry king Armenian,,, you'll find it.

                I notice alot of people are jealous that hes Armenian btw, they want to say hes Persian or something else, like they cant take it that hes Armenian.

                  Hey guys, I'm actually new to this forum but I stumbled across this post while on google and it caught my eye. Can I first of all say how much I (as an Australian born from Iraqi-Assyrian parents) have respect for all Armenians because we are brothers and we have lived together for thousands of years and suffered with eachother. Andre Agassi however is half Assyrian-Armenian and half American. His father Emmanuel Agassian was born in what at that time was part of greater Armenia, however his ethnicity was Assyrian. Today this region is a part of Iran hence why Iranians tend to call him Iranian-American and Armenians tend to call him Armenian-American. Because Assyrians live in a diaspora and don't have an independent nation we tend to be split by the newly created borders. My parents were born in Iraq, but that doesn't make us ethnically Iraqi arab? I rarely call myself Iraqi. From time and time again we are solely recognized as only Iraqi christians (or even Kurdish christians at times) by the media but its nonsense. There is a fine line between distinguishing Assyrians from other Iraqi, Iranian, Turkish, Syrian, Armenian and even Lebanese people. It's all about Pan-Assyrian nationalism but we can go on and on about this topic but I can guarantee you 110% that his father is of Assyrian ancestry because he is well known in the Assyrian community and not to mention can speak in Assyrian pretty well as he is our family friend and my parents only speak Assyrian and Arabic. Andre has assimilated into the American way of life and now he is an American just as I am an Australian.

                      Is that what you are being proud of? By the way, I have friends who have grown up with Andre Agassi's father (a boxer) in Iran, and he is one hundred percent Armenian, what are you Assyrians always talking about?
