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.

  • Something Positive from Turkey

    TURKEY SHOULDN'T TAKE ANY STAND ON KARABAKH ISSUE

    PanARMENIAN.Net
    29.11.2006 16:56 GMT+04:00

    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ The European Union and Turkey speak much of the
    Cypriot issue but the hope for the resolution of the problem is
    vague, Nursun Erel, a political observer of The New Anatolian told a
    PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. In her words, certain hopes are anchored
    with the UN plan that can get things moving. However an atmosphere
    of distrust and disappointment reigns among Cypriots and Turks. We
    should undertake joint steps to improve the situation," she remarked.

    As to Azerbaijan's role in the normalization of the Armenian-Turkish
    relations, Ms Erel said 'Turkey should not take any stand on the apple
    of discord, that is the Nagorno Karabakh problem'. In her opinion
    this fact impedes badly the establishment of neighborly relations in
    the whole region. Azerbaijan is very jealous of the Armenian-Turkish
    contacts. The Milli Mejlis chairman was very 'discontent' with the
    meeting of the Turkish and Armenian parliament speakers. I think that
    we should communicate with Armenians at all levels. This nation left a
    deep trace in Turkey's history and culture. Let us take, for example,
    the temple of Akhtamar, which has been recently reconstructed by a
    Turkish architect of Armenian origin," Erel said.

    "we Speak About Each Other, But Not With Each Other"

    A1+
    [03:57 pm] 29 November, 2006

    "Do you know where you are going? Are you sure where you are
    going? Have you thought it over well enough?"

    - these were the questions the confused Georgian frontier guard asked
    the Azeri journalists who were coming to Armenia. The journalists
    themselves told about it today in Armenia who explained half-jokingly
    what results the mutual visits can have.

    The representatives of Azerbaijan and Turkey have been in Armenia
    since November 27. The visit has been organized by civic movement
    "Alternative Start" according to which it is the fourth power that
    forms the society, thus it is necessary to organize a dialogue between
    Armenia, Turkey and Azerbaijan on the level of the journalists.

    Representative of the Embassy of Great Britain who supported the
    organization of the visit, mentioned that today the following principle
    is applied, "We speak about each other, but not with each other"
    which is supposed to change the philosophy of the meetings.

    The guests are to meet students and journalists.

    The Azeri journalists agreed that until now suchlike meetings
    and visits have been organized in Armenia only. "Before 2001-2002
    Armenians used to visit Baku where meetings were organized. During
    the last meeting over 30 Armenians came. I don't know what happened,
    but after Heidar Aliev there were changes for the worse", mentioned
    writer Alekper Aliev. He also added that "the image of an enemy has
    not yet been eliminated".

    Correspondent of newspaper "Anatolia" and radio TRT Nursul Erel
    represented a report about the situation of the press and answered
    the questions of the journalists.

    First she tried to prove via a historical flashback that press has a
    long history in Turkey, and then by the example of the covering of the
    Armenian Genocide she tried to prove that there are no restrictions
    on freedom of speech in the Turkish press.

    The representative of Turkey has her own opinion on that historical
    fact. "I personally think that there has been such a tragedy, but it
    should not become a mania". According to Mrs. Erel, she was glad to
    hear about the letter of Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan to the RA
    Prime Minister asking to create a joint committee of historians in
    order to investigate the documentation concerning the Genocide. "Don't
    you think it would be nice for historians to investigate the issue?",
    the representative of Turkey asked the Armenian journalists with a
    naivete not peculiar to journalists.

    She also mentioned that she visited Armenia in 2001 and paid a visit
    to the Museum of Armenian Genocide, and if there were a chance,
    she would like to go there again.
    "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)
