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.

    POLITICS
    ****************************
    My aim, my real aim, is not
    to criticize or ridicule our leaders
    but to lament the readiness with which
    they are accepted as inevitable facts of life.
    *
    As a people we are like Blacks in America
    before they developed a civil rights movement.
    *
    There are two kinds of government:
    of men and (ii) of swine. Or
    of the best (aristocracy) and the worst (ours).

    NOTES / COMMENTS
    ************************************
    What do Zohrab and Mikoyan
    have in common?
    They were both taken in by two
    of the most notorious serial killers
    in the history of mankind.
    *
    We may be smart in the market place
    but dumb everywhere else.
    *
    We emphasize past grievances
    we are in no position to change
    and cover up present problems
    with obvious solutions.
    *
    The main difference between
    the rich and the poor is that
    the poor ask
    “What if I am wrong”
    even when they are right,
    and the rich think
    “If I am wrong my lawyer will make it right.”

      ANTI-PROPAGANDA
      ******************************
      Where there is a moronized community
      there will also be moronizers
      actively engaged in standing between the community
      and progress because progress
      may expose them as habitual and compulsive liars
      whose #1 concern is not the welfare of the community
      but their own narrow and selfish interests –
      men whose unspoken slogan is:
      Speak unity, practice divisions
      but do so only in the name
      of the eternal snows of Mt. Ararat.
      *
      Am I saying anything you don’t already know?
      *
      Do I repeat myself?
      Not as often as their propaganda.
      If repetition works for propaganda,
      why not for anti-propaganda?

        ON JUSTICE
        ******************************
        The most important thing about a country
        is not its mountains and rivers,
        its history and culture,
        or its music and literature,
        but its administration of justice.
        A country with a corrupt justice system
        is hell on earth and as such,
        not fit for human consumption.
        *
        If you proceed on the assumption
        that a man with contradictions is the norm
        and a man without contradictions is the exception,
        you will be closer to reality.
        *
        According to capitalist and communist propaganda,
        the 1% is never wrong,
        and there is more wisdom in cold cash and power
        than in all of Socrates, Jesus, and Gandhi.
        *
        Writing consists in shedding a glimmer of light
        in a dark corner of the psyche.

          DIARY
          ******************************
          I can truly say of myself that I have lost the war
          but I may have won some minor and negligible battles –
          judging by the degree of hostility I have managed to arouse
          in some circles.
          *
          It is not easy speaking with an Armenian
          without insulting him. I try. I try very hard
          and sometimes, on very rare occasions,
          I succeed.

            ON POPULARITY
            *******************************
            Popularity is an American aberration
            and as such it should be seen as a liability
            rather than an asset.
            *
            If membership of our political parties
            has been going down steadily,
            it may be because there is a natural tendency
            in all of us to judge a man by his income bracket,
            which ignores the fact that the 99%
            outnumber the 1%.

If you want to preach something then please find something worth preaching about and perhaps then you will get more followers.

                    actually you are armenian racist. in islam nationalizm is haram. all muslims are brother. I had met armenian muslims in turkey. there are a lot of. but actually I want said this " if your life point is "armenia" or "racism" go away. but if you want find great purpose than research islam. I saw this somebody says "islam is against the armenians". this is not true.
