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.

    And where are you coming from with your claim that our language doesn't resemble any Caucasian language at all, are you out of your mind! You know how we have our voiced, semi-voiced and voiceless consonants (the 3 sounds for roughly the same letter, although the Eastern Armenians are the only ones who actually pronounce them all), that very mechanism is derived from the Caucasian language group.

    That's a pretty big deal if you ask me.
    Armenian is, all things considered, an Aryan language, not a Caucasian language, which an example of would be Georgian.

      Great. So you would your agree that the DEBATE is about language and culture? NOT "RACE." I am all for preservation of cultures and languages... those are VERY important. I'd say, don't confuse those with 'race' and skin color, though.

        I don't agree with violence and abuse either... Science is often used as a tool by those who want to inflict violence and abuse, and in the meantime, justify their actions with the laws of this system...
        It isn't fair to those who get abused by it, and in the meantime, it makes the scholar free of destructive motives contribute to the destructive opportunists in power. The scholar is just curious, because he/she is a human being and humans are curious specimens in general... This curiousity gets someone killed indirectly on the other side of the world because in order to satisfy one's curiosity, conclusions must be reached, a system must be established. For people to inquire about the diversity in appearance for human beings, a system of categorization must become hammered together. Not everyone is blessed with the opportunity to follow a spiritual path that knocks the walls of Samsara down, and so we create our categorizations instead: Caucasians, Negros and Mongolians.

        We can't escape this, not as things stand presently for mankind.

          Aryan? Don't you mean Indo-European?

            I'd like to reply. Here isn't where I can, now. Keep listening.

              that is an ambiguous statement... Just because the alleged "final emigration from Africa" was of anthropoids similar enough to us today doesn't mean that there was no exchange of genes going on between the Homo Erectus specimens already outside Africa and those living in Africa, who would later evolve to become Homo Sapiens (actually, the model of Homo Erectus evolving into Homo Sapiens has been replaced with a more distinct specimen related to the Homo Erectus with a name that I'm still not very familiar with , yet for purposes of arguement, I'm using the former model). So that means modern humans stemmed out from both African and Eurasian ancestry.

              Anyhow, I get what you're saying by how we all come from Africa... We're all the same and have common ancestry... Still, this logic isn't satisfactory enough for those who want to inquire further, whether or not their motives are destructive or not.

                  I CAN tell you this.

                  Hatred to each other is NOT ok.

                  If God has to make a ‘Darwinian’ choice between racists and other people… I’m sorry, but racists go.

                  If god was (and is) a 'DJ'

                  She's such a DJ--Chili Peppers

                  Would say ALL are children of god (not ONLY humans, too)

                    It's the same thing. They are referred to as Aryan language groups or Indo-European. Don't forget that Hindu is an Aryan language and it was introduced by the Aryan conquest into India.

                      That is untrue. It is merely a conjecture. There is nothing that indicates that this is an undeniable truth. As anything with modern 'science'. 50% truth and 50% conjecture.
