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.

    "Our Martyr have Names" on www.inhomage.com

    Urgent appeal to sons and daughters of the Armenian Genocide survivors

    4000 years of history reduced to nothing in a matter of months by the most heinous crime that a population could experience. A genocide. A genocide that does not finish wreaking havoc until reaching the very core of the diaspora by the aggression of a state that does not want to accept the truth. A genocide that wants to reduce to nothing not just the words like those of the late Hrant Dink, but also the ancient Armenian culture, as if these people had never lived in Asia Minor. As if they had never even existed since a majority of the Turkish population never learnt about their history from school books…

    For several years, the diaspora has already been fighting from all angles the Turkish state and small extremist group revisionism that would like to silence the just demands of the descendants of those who survived the first genocide of the 20th century. To do this, they are going to great lengths in referring to them in the politics of the free states and confronting those who recognize that one day back in 1915, April 24, following the 1894–1897 massacres, a plan was implemented to exterminate the Armenians under cover of the First World War.

    Why this reminder that each one of us, by transference, has been living a life of sorrow for almost a century?

    Because, like all Armenians, we long for nothing else than to bring victory to an irrefutable truth. The great majority of our population must participate in the struggle started by the representative organizations, who are testifying to the tragedy that they suffered first hand themselves by making the honorary gesture of creating a memorial to bear the Names of the Martyrs eternally on www.inhomage.com

    This contribution is a moral obligation for those who can bring together by number and name those members of their families who suffered this unspeakable crime against humanity, termed "genocide" by Raphael Lemkin.

    Thanks to its database and its internal messaging service, about 20 dispersed people have been able to retrace members of their family since this website was set up. It is also one of the sources with the most information on the diaspora's activities to raise awareness about the Armenian Genocide.

    Furthermore, you can download an exclusive slide show rendering an account of the tribute paid to journalist Hrant Dink by Armenians from more than 20 countries.

    In 2015 we hope to have registered one million names of those who suffered the ultimate sacrifice and to whom we simply must pay tribute. It is time for each one of us to realize that by hiding our nation's past, it will sooner or later become obscured in the consciences of our descendants in centuries to come. The time is here and now for the Armenian people to act in order to stop the violence.

    I solemnly ask you to ensure the memory of our martyrs lives on in the memorial on www.inhomage.com and to pass on this appeal by all means possible so that every Armenian on our planet testifies and actively takes part in it. To refrain would be to abandon your own identity by leaving a gaping hole to swallow up the most grievous abuse.

    "Don't let's ask what others can do for us, but rather let's ask what we can do for the memory of our Martyrs."

    Each name registered is a cry from the depths (the source of the truth).
    Thank you for those awaiting liberation by our actions.

    www.inhomage.com is supported by Charles Aznavour and many leaders of the diaspora around the world.
