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.

    Gregory Peck's paternal grandfather was Armenian. So this means he was 1/4th himself. I looked it up on www.armeniapedia.org but the link wouldn't work.

      "He had Catholic Armenian roots from his paternal grandfather, Sam "Peck", an immigrant from England. After he married his second wife, Veronique Passani, she had his ancestry traced and discovered the Armenian lineage. Urging him to learn of his partial Armenian heritage and to learn the Armenian language, he took Armenain classes in his middle age. But, by then, his public persona was fixed. "Gregory" is a common Indo-European name and Armenian surname (Gregorian or Krikorian) and was the name of Saint Gregory the Illuminator, Apostle of Armenia (332 AD)."

          You cannot stereotype and try to ascribe the outsider invader's genes they instilled within our culture and people. How the hell does anyone "look" Armenian? What is an Armenian "supposed to" look like? Look, you cannot create a caricature based solely on that horrific-bin laden looking stereotype. Armenians that do carry that "stain" of the Turkic/Arabic asiatic features are the ones that physically represent the invaders' infliction of a genocide and rape etc. It is simple biology: 2 ppl 1 light and the other dark. Armenians are from that Aryan stock so that means they are definitely and originally LIGHTER since we do not come from climates that create or produce those dark genes we are plagued with.

          So, when 2 people one light one dark mix as biology has shown this, naturally, the outcome of the offspring usually leans more towards the dark. Meaning, the kid has more of a chance to become carry the dark features than the light features. Take heed from the punnent squares from all of these themes you have learned in biology, as their mechanism and how they function are crucial for one's understanding of how and why certain phenotypes are the way they are.

          In other words, learn to pay attention in these classes in which you take. Any Armenian with those dark asiatic features= they have an outsider's blood in them. The original Armenians are light haired and light eyed, i.e. not what you mostly see today. These were TURKIC and ARABIC and PERSIAN and later xxxish genes that transferred over/

            Peck comes from Ipegian or Ipekian, an Armenian surname.

              Guys, the wold is mixed with all of the various cultures and people sharing all similar looks and etc. You cannot just judge solely based on the physical aspect because you would fail to acknowledge the whole broader bigger picture. You hold looks in pretty high regard and that is limited.

              What is neck? You're going to look at the Ayatollah and or Sean Connery and spew out this drivel about him being "Armenian" too?

                Armenian religiously influenced. Nothing in these documents that state he is necessarily of that ethnic background.

                  Since when did this Arabized Turkic or Persian asiatic gene, the unibrow or dark thick eye brows and eyes and or that hooked xxxish nose suddenly= an Armenian trait? You folks that concur with this just bring up the rear of civilization and you need an enlightenment.

                    Gregory Pack is an Armenian. His original name is Gregor Pekmezcian, not Ipekciyan. By the way, neither ipekcian or pekmezciyan are Armenian last names, but Turkish except their suffixes "ian". ipekci means smn who sells silk, and pekmezci stands for smn selling kind of beverage that contains grape.
