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.

  • HOMAGE to our MARTYRS of 1915

    Since yesterday a very important website is online in homage to our parents of 1915. We must announce it to all our families and armenians friendly. It’s a memorial. Look for now the town or were born and dead your grandparents in 1915 and go on { www.inhomage.com } . It makes it possible each one among us to put in perspective the birthplace of our missing old parents, by recording their names starting from a geographical map.

    This information must make the turn in the world so that a maximum of Armenians can, by finding their roots, find by the same occasion of the families originating in the same village, the same city, and correspond with them, where they are today. It is also, a way of affirming an indisputable and imprescriptible historic reality :

    THE GENOCIDE OF ARMENIAN PEOPLE

    Martyr= A person who dies in defence of "GOD" against powers that try to defame and destroy the notion or believers of "GOD".
    I see no martyrs in Anatolia. All the above argument represents is: Enormously ill-trained self-pity that has started to deform truth, bordering on incurable paranoia.

      Come on - you know very well that Turks use the word "martyr" in exactly the same as this Armenian use. In fact, in Turkey its use is trivialised by extending it even further. For example, all those who died in the Sarikaya earthquake in 1999 were refered to a "martyrs" in the Turkish press.

        You are right, bell_the_cat, and I think Turks are very wrong to use the word "martyr" so lightly, as well. In fact, GOD as I believe, would find the notion of "martyr" wrong, because we humans are all God's children, and I do not believe any method of our killing each other is acceptable to him.
        This "martyr" notion, where Muslims claim that all Christians and xxxs are OK to kill in war or else, same way Christians find it OK to kill all infidels....I DO NOT THINK GOD WOULD APPROVE ANY SUCH THING.
        Thus, to my mind, there can be no martyrs. If you read between my lines, you could notice that I would be 100% opposed to the late Ottoman approach of erasing all non-muslim elements from power in land in early 20th century, too.......

            I think the whole notion of "nation" is the very crux of all armed conflict from the start of history. I find a disturbing parallel between the "territory protection" instinct of animals and human's "nation and nationality" ideas. And then we all keep SHAMELESSLY talking about our nation, our blood, and then go even more shameless to try and find GOD's justification in our actions...
            MONEY, NATION, RELIGION...We really have to focus on these threee notions, and check to see if these three ideas are not unlike the 3 NO-NO's that doctors tell us to refrain from 1. sugar, 2. salt, 3. flour !

                CALL to ACTION of all ARMENIANS <www.inHomage.com>

                Dear Compatriot, we need you !!!

                In the face of the mass media's obfuscation of information about
                populations affected by the crimes committed by the Young Turks of the
                Ottoman Empire, a prompt response is critical. Today, if the Turkey of
                Prime Minister Erdogan and his cohorts has become worthy of being
                associated with, it has become so despite the fact that the country has
                not undertaken its task of facing its own history and collective
                memory. Moreover, the question will have now been postponed ad
                infinitum, since the EU accepted to engage in negotations in light of
                the future accession of the country to the Union.

                Armenian communities are devastated now by a second form of genocide
                stemming from indifference. Do we believe that we should have to wait
                until the 100th commemmoration of this genocide in order for justice to
                be served? No! With the passage of time, the Armenian identity is in
                the process of a gradual dilution due to assimilation and mixed
                marriages, as people integrate into increasingly diverse societies that
                are being claimed by the forces of globalization. Its future is thus in
                great danger. A vital necessity is thus presented before us by these
                events: a call to all Armenians on the planet to testify and bear
                witness, as a duty to our collective peace of mind, that the Genocide of
                1915 was neither an illusion, nor a point of view. Because our dead had
                names, and we are going to prove it. This is why we must gather all our
                energy - as well as your help - to stand back up and conquer this
                enormous challenge: OUR DEAD STILL HAVE A NAME.

                In all countries, in all cities, in all villages, on all the streets and
                on every floor of every building; on the radio, on TV, on the Internet
                and through the pages of Armenian presses, let us sensitize and raise
                the awareness of our compatriots to bear witness, in the face of
                humanity, that our people suffered the unspeakable: a GENOCIDE !

                Let us supply the Memorial www.inhomage.com with the names of our
                sacrificed forefathers as long as their eradication from their ancestral
                grounds is not officially recongized by the Turkish state. This
                testimony, on the global level, will contribute to the realization of
                the international community of the disaster that struck the Armenian
                people; irrefutable proof issued by the descendants of those who have
                died – but whose graves are unmarked. By undertaking this action, we may
                be able to relieve our children of the heavy burdens of the past, so
                that they may more thoroughly and freely invest their energies in a
                better future, and in helping Armenia get on its feet more quickly.

                Thank you for widely conveying and disseminating this information, in
                the memory of our martyrs. Please do not hesitate to pick up our link
                from www.inhomage.com and add it to your website. Do it now! One day,
                thanks to you, the names of more than one million of our brothers and
                sisters will feature on this Memorial so that their justice will be
                served. Want the Recognition is natural, but to bring again elements being able to contribute it is our duty.
                Thank you - for them.

                Tser ays ararkov, medzaradz bidi ellak mer 1915 tvagani nahadagnére.
                Chnorhagaloutioun.

                  you RETARD! the turks slaughtered armenians in the name of "jihad" because we were not muslims and therefore "non-believers". the jihad encouraged by germany. the only armenians to survive were women or children who were kidnapped my turks or kurds and raised muslims. you could only survive by converting to islam. and armenians who were given that option chose to die with dignity.
                  therefore we are martyrs. our revolutionaries, fedayis, soldiers, were all blessed, their guns blessed, they fought under a cross. armenians are mostly orthodox christians, and christianity has been a part of their nationalidentity for hundreds of years. esheg mongol turk
