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.

    THE BLAME-GAME
    ***********************************
    The source of our degeneration?
    Bad company – Romans, Byzantines, Persians,
    Arabs, Tatars, Mongols, Ottomans, Bolsheviks…
    bloodthirsty, warlike savages all –
    murderers, rapists, thieves…
    the worst kind of riffraff that ever lived.
    We were corrupted by the kind of people
    we were warned to avoid as children.
    Deep, very deep down, we are la crème de la crème!
    *
    If you believe that, you will believe anything!
    *
    For an entirely different version of the story,
    read Khorenatsi’s LAMENTATION
    which was written in our so-called Golden Age.
    *
    And now listen to Toynbee:
    “In the life which Man has made for himself on Earth,
    his institutions, in contrast to his personal relations,
    are the veritable slums,
    and the taint of moral obliquity is still more distressing
    in the least ignoble of these social tenements
    of the Human Spirit – for instance, in the churches
    and the academies –
    than in such unquestionably malignant institutions
    as Slavery and War.”
    *
    Translated into dollars and cents:
    Don’t blame outsiders;
    blame your own best and brightest!

    When charges are brought forth against a murderer , there is --- NO --- supposition that the victim is the "creme de la creme" , *** NONE *** .
    You (Ara balozian) make these ABSURD nonsense up t further your argument.
    What is your argument ... Armenians are responsible for the turcs murdering helpless men,women, and children, including the elderly.
    We were simply villagers (for most part) who had been subjugated for over 5 centuries.
    Judging by the envy of the kurds and turcs at our modest wealth, we may have been the best and brightest ,but we knew we has to do work to get crops and cloths etc and also knew we were simple villagers surrounded by heartless conniving theivs & murderers, ie turcs & kurds.
    I stoped reading your posts some time ago but knew with this title of yours you were going to once again FRAUDULENTLY accuse the people of the 1915 genocide of being guilty of their genocide.
    In your next post perchance you can point out the guilt of the 300,000 people who were murdered in the Hamidan massacres, and Adana next. I'm sure since they they were killed you have much to blame them for their own murders.
    If someone breaks your jaw are YOU at fault for that???????????

      MORE OF THE SAME…
      ***************************************
      “My patriotism is good;
      my enemy’s patriotism bad,”
      reminds me of Orwell’s slogan in ANIMAL FARM:
      “Four legs good, two legs bad.”

      Whenever I refuse to recycle
      a reader’s favorite propaganda line
      I am classified as an enemy of the people,
      among other crimes and transgressions.
      The only reason i am not accused
      of being guilty of genocide is that
      I was born after 1915.

      To believe in false gods
      is not a crime against humanity;
      but to condemn to death
      anyone who dares to say
      “of the gods we know nothing,” (Socrates)
      is a sure symptom of decline and degeneration.
      *
      We have a phobia of free speech
      probably because it may expose us
      for what we really are:
      dupes of mongoloids who brag about their IQ.
