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.

  • Armenian Race and Cultural Background

    Yes we all know that Armenians belong to an Aryan race , but are we really? I really want to know if we are really Aryan and the only thing really stopping us is the Turkish invasion when the Turkish invaded Armenia they bread with our women, so does that mean that us Armenians are really not pure white? And we all have some what of Turkish in us? So does that mean we were Aryan up in till 1915? Please somebody provide me with some answers and information!

    Re: Armenian Race and Cultural Background

    Armenians have not mixed with Turkish people. Armenians and Turks both lived in Anatolia but that's about how far as it goes. It would be incorrect to say that Armenians have mixed with Turks because Turks are Muslim. If a Turkish man were to marry an Armenian woman, she would then convert to Islam and become a Turk. It would also not be acceptable for an Armenian man to marry a Turkish woman because your are not alowed to convert to Christianity under the Quoran. Many Armenians and Greeks have mixed in Anatolia due to similiar customs and religion. This is especially true in cities as Bursa and Istambul.

    I would say that Armenians are a closer match to Caucasian because Caucasian descibes people from the Caucus Mountains(where Armenia is situated).

        You don't make any sense.

        Armenians didn't mix with turks nor assimilate any turkic features. Although its true in the other direction.

        Armenians are a caucasian race in root stock. Throughout her history and conquests though, the Armenian nation had assimilated foreign elements, some of which were semitic:

              This is incorrect. Armenians have mixed with Turkish people even today we mix. Different situations such as raping could have happened from Armenians or Turks. During 1915 it is a very confusing part of history and even before that I'm sure some people of both groups married each other. In Islam the man is allowed to marry the woman and she does not have to convert. But the children have to be muslim

                This Aryan ideology of Armenians is a theory. What are you talking about pure white? Armenians are mixed with people of the middle east, Asia, and Europe. Our country is in Asia in the middle of no where where many times we were conquered and under rule. Armenians and Turks both fall under the caucasian category!

                    They are a hybrid.

                    The traffic of Armenian genes was one-way though, to turks -- not the other way around.
