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.

  • My Name

    Hey my first name is vanush

    Im Indian and my name is armenian, i am wondering what my name means?

  • #2
    Vanush is not Armenian. Unless your name is Van, there is nothing Armenian about it.

      Vanush is indeed Armenian, although i dont know the meaning, you could try searching on google for databases and meanings of Armenian names.

      How did it happen that you got an Armenian name?

        I know about three or four Vanoosh's alone, Vanoosh is an Armenian name.

        However, if you're indian, the name might be derivitive of the hindu spirit (god?) Vishnu

          Welcome Vanush tell us more about you, your stats

            Yea, which is all the proof I need for ME to be convinced it's an Armenian name... which, by the way is all that matters. If you're not convinced, please go out and find proof for yourself.

              Are you telling us that you know two people with the name Vanoosh (spelled just like that) on their birth certificates?

              Comment

                I dunno, I've never looked at their birth certificates. How many birth certificates of your family and friends have you ever looked at? It's a stupid question, and why you're so obsessed with proving me wrong on this rather trivial matter amazes me. But, like I stated before, I know many Vanooshs, including my adorable little nephew Vanushik

                Came to think of it.. even though I've never actually seen his birth certificate, I was there in the hospital when he was born and named. Does that suffice?

                  Hey, I'm not trying to prove you wrong and it's not a stupid question. I'm just saying that they may be called Vanush, but their real name is something else, like Van or something. You know? Armos tend to do that with names. They add -oosh or -ik, etc, to names.

                  So this may go against this new guy's claim that his name is Armenian. However, if your nephew's name is Vanush, then hey, you're right.
