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.

        you should see them as just people, not as "Armenians who dont act like Armenians." They've chosen their own life, just like you've chosen to join the suburban America, they've chosen to act black, Mexican, gangsta, whatever. Your losing your own precious time if your thinking about their problems.

          Armenians in America were succesful, notice the Famous Armenians forum! I have noticed in many private Armenian schools that the kids really do talk about more...hmm..."MTV"-like things than those kids who do not. Something must be wrong, because I believe the other day a girl said that she was "friends with benifits" with a couple of guys...I asked her what it was, when she responded that it was being friends while making out with the occasional oral or anal sex, I was really shocked.

          The loudest girls at school are Armenian, the boy who has gotten in the most fights (and lost most of them) is Armenian, the best cheater at school (no not me *blushes*) is an Armenian girl. All these things are widely excepted by the majority of the campus at my school (high school btw). Whenever someone needs to get answers for a test, or pass their driving exam, they simply ask, "where is the Armenian?" haha.

          ^^This all seems fun now when I get a lot of attention, but I have stopped. Why? It occured to me, that we kids are going to grow up and become the adults of tommorow...and do I really want all the Adults to be teachign their kids that the Armenians were the largest cheaters of their day???
          did i write this??? it sounds like me? but it says its hayq? ohh well...

          so hayq i agree with you and i agree with angelik too... i guess there is a time and place for everything, and it just so happened that this thread is the thread for discussing this topic, so why dont you all stop saying "live your life hayq" and understand that this is the place to talk about this topic and so thats why he is writing it here...

          but anywho, i feel this way too... since you are a guy you see the girls doing these things, and since i am a girl i have always paid more attention to what the armenian guys have done... frankly i cant deal with them anymore... i just keep them as friends... i want to date one but they are such hores and b!tches that i get disguseted... any nice guy i know think he must wait until he's married to have sex.... BLAH BLAH BLAH! its like i cant get the nice+horney guy in one package... OBVIOUSLY! there are more problems then this, but thats just one i can think of NOW...

          i love being armenian, and since we are talking about that, and also talking about keeping it that way, i have to say that we ought to do it as individuals... each and every one of us, should make the best effort to do it... i dont know how old you are hayq but the older you get, the more you fall in love with armenia (read my post on Armenia my heart) and the more you want to be that way... but it DOES NOT! mean that we have to go backwards in time... or even pretend to be like sometihing we are not...

          seriously look at the jews... i was at universal city walk on sunday because my work (nasa) was showing a documentary at the iMAX and it apperantly it was one of the days of Hanukkah and they had rented the entire place... there was loud jewish music playing, there was a movie playing outside that was animated about the jews history, specifically about the persecution of the jews in greece, etc... and the place was filled with so many jews i had never seen that before... but guess what, there was no little corner of jewish gansta boys... at first i thought man there are so many armenians here, but then i noticed the odd, humble behaviour, and the yamakas, and there you had it... they OWN the place! why dont we OWN A PLACE! because unlike jews we dont help each other, we put each other down...

          i have done many things to place others (armenians) in better positions... one of them ended up getting fired and a police report was written on him because he had stolen $50,000 worth of electronics from the department store... WOW! would a jew have done that? NO!
          another friend i wrote an essay for her that was submitted into a contest and she WON first place, and I won second, but did she share her first place winning prize with me? because after all i wrote the essay, NO she didnt... "i help you, you help me???" where did that go???

          another, i wrote her acceptance essays to get into the university, she got in, but i couldnt go and take the tests for her, so she got married... i want to help, i want to be there... but its not easy being one of the only ones who tries a ltitle harder...

          then when i was choosen to give the speech at the academy graduation, my friends were jealous of me, instead of being happy for me... i am a bit confused... if i was jewish, and my friends were jewish they would never have done the horrible things they did to me... they would;ve helped me write my speech... but NOPE! not my good ol armenian friends... NAKHANDZ

          i dont know i am tired... i have a presentation to prepare for, and the chart generator is doing something stupid... and i want to sleep...

            Amen sister. But be careful, you'll probably get chewed out for "comparing armenians to Jews" because they are, after all, out mortal enemies...

                    jinx why do you love the word "true" in this context??? and thai you are right, it does have the similar effects but let me as you a question, if we compare armenians to mexicans and if we compare armenians to jews what would be the different outcomes??? you dont have to answer that (its retorical) but you see why armenians must take on the job of making the armenian reputation better by doing it themselves...
