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: Why do you people hate hyeastanci's so much?
I mean you have to be really childish, like most of the diaspora Armenians, to resort to stereotyping your OWN people. Not to mention they might even be related to you. Maybe not by blood, but still, it's very stupid, and has to stop.Last edited by Guest; 09-17-2008, 06:51 PM.

Why do hyestancis "hate" Diasporan and Western Armenians so much? And what are you talking about we wouldn't exist without hyestancis?
Who knows? Their ancestors may as well be related to me, and not to mention their the same Armenians as the ones in Armenia. Just that they've left their land all because of the damn turks. It's not your fault, I don't blame you. But, again, if you're going to resort to insult me back with some stupid crap, that just goes to show you have no respect for your own people. And that's lame. Let's look at this way. Do you think diaspora italians hate Italians from Italy? What about the Irish Diaspora? Do they also? Yeah, thought so. Show some respect! Yes, their are going to be hyeastanci's who hate you. Insulting them back shows that you've lowered yourself as low as them. Making you an insult to your own kind.Last edited by Guest; 09-17-2008, 07:06 PM.

Re: Why do you people hate hyeastanci's so much?
Keep in mind that my friends say that I don't "act" like a "stanci". Whatever that means, and it's stupid stereotype. Dissing your own countries people, who've stayed their because of the genocide our ancestors have all faced. The sad thing is, adults maintain the same mentality as though they are "better" than us, all because we're from Armenia. If you have a such a "hate" toward these types, don't bother going to Armenia.Last edited by Guest; 09-17-2008, 07:15 PM.

Originally posted by dictator View PostFor throwing the same insult at me, you're also troll.
You must be forgetting that it's for EVERYONE. If half Armenians are allowed here, then we also should. Don't forget, it's for EVERYONE.
Let me ask you, what is the point in some 3rd generation full-Armenians marrying other 3rd generation full-Armenians? There is none. Although their children will be 'genetically' (whatever that means) full Armenian they will probably grow up speaking only English, attending American schools, working for American companies, paying taxes to America, donating to American charities. What in that is anything Armenian? Because they sometimes go to Armenian Church? Give me a break.
I consider being part Armenian a sort of blessing - I have to 'prove' my Armenian-ness by looking depi hayrenik. If I was 'full' Armenian, I wonder how much I would care about being Armenian.
Also, I'm not a troll, I don't hate any kind of Armenians. I have "western" Armenian friends, and I don't hate them at all. I mean why should I? I'm not stupid enough to.
Their ancestors may as well be related to me, and not to mention their the same Armenians as the ones in Armenia. Just that they've left their land all because of the damn turks. It's not your fault, I don't blame you. But, again, if you're going to resort to insult me back with some stupid crap, that just goes to show you have no respect for your own people. And that's lame.
Let's look at this way. Do you think diaspora italians hate Italians from Italy? What about the Irish Diaspora? Do they also? Yeah, thought so.
Armenia on the otherhand must think about it's diaspora everyday as twice as many Armenians live outside their homeland.
