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.

Who cares what rap artists you like doesnt mean you have to become like them. They are Armenian not Black, not hispanic nor Asian nor anything else for that matter.
The funniest part is, it's these thug wannabes, living the hip-hop nigga' life that go around yelling "Armenian pride", or "ArMeNiaN 4 LiFe Yo LoLLZzzz!!11", or "aRmeNiAnS R dA beSt, nIgGa !!11"
Djsinister: My apologize if rap about politics, religion, etc. exists, but I have never come across such a thing. It's hard for me to even fathom the idea. It must be a well hidden, underground secret, indeed. What are some of the specific artists you're refering to?
And finally, I mentioned this in another thread when we were talking about Armenian nigger wannabes (or Armiggers™, as I have patent the term) as part of the characteristics that make up Armenians. I had said that, while it doesn't justify it in any way, shape or form, I can see why culturless Anglo-saxons take to it. But why people with a rich culture and tradition??? These morons adopt black culture (if you can call the made-up, media/pop fabrication that) because they don't have a sense of history or belonging ethnically. But why would Armenians do it? And some people on here called me not a "true Armenian" because I won't limit my marriage choices to Armenian girls??? Bravo to those true Armos, coming from 100% Armenian families, going out with/marrying Armenians, and.....being niggers, as seems to be the growing trend, strengthening in numbers in the Armenian community out there! 2 great big thumbs up for you guys/gals. Guess I'll just be busy over here, knowing more about our history, language and culture then half the "true" Armenians out there, while not being Armenian.Last edited by Crimson Glow; 09-19-2004, 07:29 PM.

Originally posted by Crimson GlowBecause rap isn't about the music, it's about the image. They're selling the image. Otherwise, rap music has no use. The melodies are nothing but regurgitated, stolen songs, the sounds are usually weak and overused, and the lyrics are repeatitive, insulting, 5-minute trendy slang. Every year, the popular, made up words change, and the ones from the year before are outdated. The look changes just as quickly. Remember when it was popular with "niggaz" to have one leg rolled up on your pants? WTF?? And you had to wear your hat sideways? Now you gotta' have shorts that are too long to be considered shorts, but too short to be considered pants, with upside down, backwards visors instead of hats. It's all image, and they're selling it to you a dollar at a time. I know that some people who listen to rock, grunge, goth, etc can be depicted by the way they present themselves, but, is there any other genre of music other than rap where everyone that listens to it is influenced by the way the..."artist" (nearly gags)...dresses, talks, and acts???

And I do agree with you. I guess that is what I was tring to say, but you said it better.You can't hold a man down without staying down with him.

I have nothing against Armenians marrying somone other then a Armenian, but at least pick a candidate that is in the same racial phenotype as a Armenian. What I mean by that is that at least pick a husbend or wife that somwhat resembles a Armenian.
But yes, for the most part, Armenians are being pushed into the "victim" camp. When I mean I am referring to Jews and Africans, thus, they will relate more with these groups then let us somone who is "white". I find this VERY tragic, but what can you do? I would REALLY want Armenians to emulate their own culture and LEARN from groups that have amounted to somthing, instead, Armenians emulate a group of a people that have always been under the thumb of the "white" man.
Ironically, Armenians, who are closly related to the "white man", consider the exploitation of the black man by the white man as the equivalent of their exploitation by the Turks. While the "Turks", who are culturally, racially, and historically anything but "white", try their best to socially progress, thus, trying to become "white" or "western" themselves.
In short, Armenians, instead of socially progressing are going into social decline. How can you amount to anything when you think attaining a "ghetto fabulous" life is more important than getting a education? You can't progress, furthermore, trying to "progress" by emulating a group of people that have never "progressed" is the equivalent of trying to be a doctor, while hanging around stoners, it just will not happen.

Originally posted by VirgilCG, I strongly agree with your statements, but for the record I would like to clarify somthing. My logic behind marrying in the culture is just based on numbers. I would not give a flying xxxx if at least 75% of Armenians lived in Armenia, but unfortunitly, they don't. At least 50% live in Armenia and furthermore, the population is going into decline, thus, the Diaspora is a VERY important in terms of preserving Armenian genes, culture, and traditions.
I have nothing against Armenians marrying somone other then a Armenian, but at least pick a candidate that is in the same racial phenotype as a Armenian. What I mean by that is that at least pick a husbend or wife that somwhat resembles a Armenian.
But back on track. Where are the parents of such kids? I thought Armenian parents were anally strict. How are these morons allowed to get out and do what they do? Drop out of school, roam the streets at late hours, etc? I got my ass kicked for the silliest little thing when I was growing up (of course, that's a whole different story), and now these belligerent dumbf*cks are allowed to mess up this bad, and the parents don't do anything? What's the story?
