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.

    Chardag, is your movie more oriented towards realisme or you'll add some fiction and give it a mainstream appeal?

    Movies on Armenian Genocides like Ararat aren't that attractive to non armenians because it's a REAL true story. Untill now, the only true story that marked the movie industries are movies where fictional stuff (like love, etc...) are added.

    I know it's hard to maintain the real facts but the objective should be interesting the average viewer in Armenia's history, not keep repeating the same thing to armenians that were bathed in.
    I am trying to go by my grandmothers true experience......so through the eyes of a young mother which any person can identify with. This horrible event is shown through her eyes. It is not just a general story about the genocide but more of a personal look through the eyes of a survivor. I am trying to keep it as true as possible with actual events shown. However some things may be based on an account or a diiferent survivors experience. There are ways to add thos appealing Hollywood elements without making the story untrue. So I really want to show it through her experience and survival.

        You sure about that? I think every Armenian film-maker has made a movie about the Armenian genocide and every wannabe author has written a memoir on their grandmother. Maybe that's why I said that I hope you'll be focusing on live Armenians in the present after your thesis. We have more books and films about the genocide than about ourselves. Quite sad really.

            I'd like to be one of the "Tachnagtsagan" busting some turkiash ars but I don't live in LA....shame

            If I had the chance to make a movie like this, I would pick up a real story like yours and insert it in a more controversial movie like Moore's.
            You show turkia's denial, the proven facts...make them contradict

                      It was cool. You know, despite my earlier remarks, what the hell, I'll help if you want. I've got some film expertise, so I'm sure I could be help in some facility.
