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 can think of Armenia as an island. And we can gather all our cultural treasures there. And then since we're Armenian we can be Armenian there. And we can try to solve the problems of poverty and unemployment.

        Btw, I assume you guys know about the island of Saint. Lazarus given to Mkhitar and his monks by Venetians after his escape from Turks in 1715. It's actually an Armenian island near Venice. Maybe we could buy the rest of the islands and Venice itself (3.5 trillion?). It could be another city-state that could easily accomodate millions of Armenians.

          I got a better idea. Buy an island and put the turks on it.

          The more primitive and hostile, the better. It will also be cheaper.

          Then when all Armenian land is united and giving forth its fruits to its rightful owners, there won't be any more problems.

            An island for turks? Isn't the moon better. Or better Mars. turks can be the first explorers of Mars.

              Wonderful idea, but now you are talking supermegabucks to transport
              70 million turks into space.

                ^^ we can tell them it's for their own good and it'll be putting them out of harms way in case of a war. Although, they may not need any reason to go as they are used to occupying other's lands or planets in this case.

                  no way what if mars is inhabited by a race of geniuses and they give Turks super-intelligence, and super powers, like unlimited strength and stamina.
                  We better send ourselves there first just to check it out.

                    This island is almost the same idea Cilician Armenian princes had when Armenia was crumbling under Byzantine and Seljuk rule!

                      We have to rise up above this kind of stuff and make do with the best we have and stay proud. We tend to grovel to countries like the US sometimes to get our ends on the international scene. We run away from our problems too much and complain about Turks too much, instead of complaining to EU and so forth about this excuse for a government they have in Turkey we need to take matters into our own hands. Demand justice dont ask for it and fight for the justice yourself, dont leave it to others.
