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.

    Losing hope of yeniçeri's "sincerity"

    ...I must add that history is such a dicipline that it is beyond state control and very open to abusement. State policies sometimes try to hide something in history, sometimes try to exaggarate things as we see in your case and in our case.

    ...What is genocide? Why have all these bad events immigration and death has been lived? Do the things that were lived in the past fit exactly to the term genocide?

    ...And what are the characteristics of comitee of union and progress? Please why answering to these questions can somebody answer with a wider and thorough knowledge about the events and facts. It again makes me sad while talking about history some grab the only knowledge they need from ottoman history, about CUP and Atatürk

    ...If we are to observe historical events and also if we are to make a conclusion about armenian case we all should then know the situation of ottoman empire at 1915. Can you define me the position of Ottoman empire in 1915?
    I gave yeniçeri the benefit of the doubt in the first reply to his post, but I knew he was playing around.
    He doesn't want to know about the Armenian Genocide.
    He is not willing to read a book about the Armenian Genocide, otherwise he wouldn't keep asking questions answered a zillion x trillion x billion times in zillions of existing documents.

    It's pretty obvious what you say is for interior consumption (in Turkey that is), and no Armenian (or non-Turk, informed of the issue that is) will buy your beating around the bush.
    I have already told you this in a previous reply:
    "The Turks wiped out the entire Christian Armenian population of Turkish occupied Armenia."
    I have to add to that even if not a single eyewitness or survivor account had reached us, it still wouldn't change that obvious fact.

    yes I have the blue book and I read it but I dont want to talk all the time about these because then I am afraid the conversation will turn into "you did this then we did this because you did that". You dont ask yourself "why"s you only want to see your facts.
    Then read it carefully, all your questions are answered there.

    ...second Turkey is not the inheritor of Ottoman Empire.

    ...you should keep in mind the fact that Turkey is the inheritor of ottomans as far as armenians are.
    No comment.
    Four things denialist Turks do when they are confronted with facts:

    I. They change the subject [SIZE="1"](e.g. they copy/paste tons of garbage to divert attention).[/SIZE]
    II. They project [SIZE="1"](e.g. they replace "Turk" with "Armenian" and vice versa and they regurgitate Armenian history).[/SIZE]
    III. They offend [SIZE="1"](e.g. they cuss, threaten and/or mock).[/SIZE]
    IV. They shut up and say nothing.
