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.

  • History 46

    For those of you who are college students in the San Fernando valley are enrolled at LAVC, I urge you guys to take the "History 46 - Armenian History" class with professor Shemessian in the fall semester. The class needs at least 15 students to remain open and it's definately a worth while class to take (and the professor is great) so if you're free on TTh evenings, then please consider signing up. Here's a link to the Valley College webpage:

    I took the class last semester, I showed up the first day, there was no teacher, and only three students. Turned out the class had been cancelled because very few had enrolled.

    But then I heard that Shemessian is a freak.

      Shemessian is cool! And that's exactly it, not enough people enrolled, which is why I'm promoting it.

        I don't think there's going to be many students this time either. I spoke to the woman in charge of the History Dep., and she said that they had tried it twice in previous semesters, and the same thing had happened, so they tried changing the times the classes were given, thinking that it may be because the time was inconvenient. Yet again, very few enrolled.

            I don't know if GCC still offers it.... but "Armenian Diaspora Studies" was really a great class I took.

            It taught you about where we came from (but just a little) and focused mainly on how the lives of the Armenians in the Diaspora have an impact on Armenian and vice versa and how the Armenian Diaspora is looked upon throughout the many countries in the world.

            I think professor Levon Marashlian teaches it and he provides many videos, slides, and pictures for you to see of how the Diaspora has evolved since the early seventies.

            It was really educational and entertaining.

            Lav... didn't mean to solicit this class..... but I figured it might be in the right thread.

            If you want the history aspect, then yea... check out the class Hyejinx is talkin about.
