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.

    Actually, that is ingenious. He would be hiding where they least suspect, right under their noses and in the mouth of the lion. Ardakilic is onto something here.

        THE ANATOLIAN NEWS AGENCY ANKARA

        Turkish Culture & Tourism Minister Ertuğrul Günay said on Friday that the statue of Atatürk would be placed in "garden of cultures" in Kyrgyzstan.

        Günay told the Anatolian news agency that he saw "garden of cultures" near Issyk Lake -- world's second biggest mountain lake -- during his visit to Kyrgyzstan, adding that the statues of important world leaders took place near that lake.

        Günay said that Turkey would finance a Kyrgyz sculptor to make a statue of Atatürk which would be placed under a tree near Issyk Lake.

        Günay added that the inauguration of the statue would be made in the middle of 2009.

          So Kemal Ataturd is belatedly getting his pan-turkish empire, although Alexandros, I think there's a mis-spelling, shouldn't it be "garden of vultures"

            Günay told the Anatolian news agency that he saw "garden of vultures" near Issyk Lake -- world's second biggest mountain lake -- during his visit to Kyrgyzstan, adding that the statues of tyrannical world leaders took place near that lake.

            Günay said that Turkey would finance a Kyrgyz sculptor to make a statue of Atatürk which would be placed on top of a kurd near Issyk Lake.

            Günay added that the inauguration of the statue would be made in the middle of 2009.

                  Hi everyone,

                  I found this forum while I was searching for the latest petition in Turkey and had a chance to see what Armenians think about it. It is nice to see things are working, and Armenian people are willing to reach to the hand that their neighbors extend. People in Turkey are not risking their lives for nothing. More closer to what Hrant was dreaming about... A dialogue instead of a fruitless monologues... We'll get there my brothers, sooner or later... So far, so good...

                  I also looked for other posts, but it's just been 1 hour, so I could only read few. What I saw was, there is inclination to misunderstand the "other". Actually I may prove a minute later for such a case as well. But still, for two nations not being in dialogue for a long time and having a painful history, I think that is normal, especially on forums where you don't see any gestures but only words that do not necessarily convey the "feeling" in a non-native language.

                  Just now, I deleted bunch of paragraphs because it was getting out of hand to talk about everything at the same time. So I will stick with one of the things mentioned and bothered me a lot.

                  AN IMPORTANT AND SINCERE REMARK: Delete Armenian and Turkish, write two other nations, or swap the nation names, and let one Turkish equal to many Armenians (not in a bad way of course), what I wrote below would not change.

                  Back to the discussion: This sentence is followed by explanations too. As a matter of fact, Eti questioned this "view" and the similarities of what is said in Mein Kampf by Nazis for Jews too. Eti refrained from saying fascist or nationalist, but I won't do it.

                  Quoting is tricky, I know, takes a sentence out of context, but the quoted sentence, said in whatever context, could be the first sentence of a fascist manifesto. As I read many times in this forum, facing the truth is important. And we may not need to look far away to find fascism.

                  Equations do not hold even in physics (they abandoned Newtonian physics in last century and they still cannot explain many things with quantum physics). It is most likely that it won't hold for societies as well. As I said, nation names could change, but does not matter. Actually we do not need nation names, a fascist may argue a vote of a peasant not being equal to a, say, educated landlord. They will not be saying this in bad way or anything. Just because educated one reads newspapers, knows the world, the government and the peasant only knows how to harvest etc. etc. Nonsense can be justified by very logical facts, actually that's what fascist leaders are famous for.

                  Sorry for my bitter ending to my sweet starting first post. I always believe fascism is very close to us than we think. Hearing "one Turk equals that many of this and half of the other" kind of equations makes me sick, maybe more than equations of one Armenian (not in a bad way of course) to a number of Turks. However, to this equation, only one response came, and in a way softer tone than mine. And it was dismissed by -in my perception- in a rude way accusing the person by reading only Turkish history, and reading not enough, knowing not enough etc. And yet, nobody questioned it...

                  Just like an Armenian shaking a Turkish to face facts, please take my comments in the same manner. I would really love to continue the tone that I started this post, but I cannot because just like my friend Saco, when it comes to serious issues, being sentimental is not my suit. Fascism is one of the most serious issues I can think of.

                  Gule gule.

                    Welcome may,
                    I liked your opening post and the ending really wasn't too bitter. Stay here and post more.

                      Welcome May, nice post, a bit confusing here and there but nice overall .

                      AN IMPORTANT AND SINCERE REMARK: Delete Armenian and Turkish, write two other nations, or swap the nation names, and let one Turkish equal to many Armenians (not in a bad way of course), what I wrote below would not change.
                      Sorry May, didn't really understand you here. I wasn't degrading the Turks, just stating facts. There were many occasions when a few Armenians with ancient guns, not enough ammunition or food, and basically in terrible conditions, crushed hundreds of Turks with their smart strategies. The Turks were great in quantity, not quality. You know in Armenia in the last war, there was a large missile launcher stuck in the ground on a hill. The Azeri's got there and they could level an entire large Armenian town below, winning the war probably soon after. You know what happened though? Nothing at all, the Azeri's couldn't use it, lol. The Armenians won the war. Armenians are smart May, that's all I was saying. The Turks have tried to degrade the Armenians and still do, acting as if they were and are much more clever. That's why I stated this true and perhaps painful fact. In 1915, they stabbed the Armenians in the back with their large forces and if the Armenians knew the Turks were coming, you would've read a whole different story in the history books today. They had and have no honor which they like to talk about so much. They attack their own people and I have no sympathy, not even a drop of sympathy for those losers. The Turks that have to pay for all that these retards do are the ones I feel sorry for and I respect and support them every day in my mind, in these forums, and in any way I can.

                      Sorry for my bitter ending to my sweet starting first post. I always believe fascism is very close to us than we think.

                      Sorry May, didn't understand you here either. Did I say something wrong?

                      Just like an Armenian shaking a Turkish to face facts, please take my comments in the same manner.

                      Great point and I'm glad we think the same way . Welcome to the forums again.
