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.

        As the Turkish government continues its prosecution of famed novelist
        Orhan Pamuk on charges he "denigrated the Turkish national identity"
        by saying that the Armenian genocide of World War I did indeed
        happen, the UN has decided to investigate Turkish History and
        determine if, in fact, there is truly a country named Turkey.

        "Until we get some real evidence, the so-called country named Turkey
        will receive imaginary country status within the UN," said Kofi
        Annan, UN Secretary General. "As an imaginary country, they are
        welcome to attend our UN sessions, but no one really needs to listen
        to them."

        The new status for Turkey took effect quickly. During an afternoon
        general assembly on the topic of peace in the Mideast, the Turkish
        ambassador took the floor and offered Turkey's perspective on the
        situation. Many of the UN representatives began gobbling, preening,
        and scuffling around their desk. Once the bewildered ambassador
        finished and took his seat, the Israeli representative took the
        microphone.

        "I'm sorry, did someone say something?" he asked.

        Muttering filled the room over the protests of the Turkish
        representative.

        "I heard a lot of wind," responded the Lebanese
        representative. "There must be a storm outside."

        "Perhaps," responded the Israeli. "But to me, it sounded more like a
        gobbling sound. Like a large, flightless, feathered bird."

        "Yes!" said the Russian ambassador. "That's it! I heard it. But it
        was indecipherable."

        "I guess we should move on."

        Later in the day, at a reception for some Asian dignitaries visiting
        the UN, many representatives arrived adorned with fake wattles—the
        fleshy piece that dangles from a turkey's neck. There was a moment of
        embarrassment as the Turkish ambassador frantically scurried around
        the room, trying to remove the wattles and demanding that his
        colleagues listen to him.

        An investigatory committee has been formed to produce evidence of
        Turkey's history and existence.

        "It's really quite simple," said Kofi Annan. "If the Armenian
        Genocide did not happen, then there's a strong likelihood that Turkey
        never happened. We're going to use the same level of investigatory
        diligence and scholarship that Turkey has used in investigating the
        Armenian genocide, and find out if we've had an imposter in the UN
        all these years. If what we suspect is true, we believe that there's
        a huge land mass in the middle east that's for sale. Israel is
        apparently very interested."
        Heh, is it really the same Kofi Annan that tried to settle Cyprus issue for Turkey and Greece. Or rather UN discussing the existence of a country that is one of its members? I have my doubts... And Israel whose land is the most artificial in middle-east is looking for such a debate? While I dont claim anyone of being liar in the forum, is such a conversation really possible? (I am not even mentioning the manner of talk stays faaar away from the general diplomacy style)

              Don't worry Kofi is still your Annan
              "All truth passes through three stages:
              First, it is ridiculed;
              Second, it is violently opposed; and
              Third, it is accepted as self-evident."

              Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)

                For all of those who are missing a certain "logic" gene in their DNA, perhaps we can help spell things out for you.

                1. The official Ottoman statistics compiled, for the period between 1915 to 1917-18, were of 800,000 directly killed. This figure originates from Djemal's bureau’s compilation statistics. The results have been published in the official Ottoman gazette. Ottoman Gazette Takvimi Vekâyi No. 3909, July 21, 1920, pp. 3, 4. Cited published in Alemdar, March 15, 1919.

                2. That means that AT THE VERY LEAST, the Ottomans killed 800,000
                Armenians during the Armenian Genocide.

                3. That would mean there are most certainly mass graves filled with Armenian corpses.

                4. If certain retarded persons here want to know where those mass graves are, they should first ask the Turkish govt, which is the party in control of most of the territory on which those mass graves would lie.

                5. Said certain retarded persons should ask themselves the following questions: (a) has the Turkish govt. ever looked for those mass graves; (b) if so, has the Turkish govt. found them; (c) if so, would the Turkish govt. ever admit to finding mass graves full of Armenian bones; (d) if the answer to (a) is no, would the Turkish govt. ever allow neutral archeologists to look for mass graves in Turkey?

                6. The point is, yes there must be many mass graves full of the bones of our ancestors dotting the Turkish landscape, but only a retard would expect Turkey to offer up such information. Remember, this is the same govt. that prosecutes journalists for using the words Armenian and Genocide in the same sentence.
