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.

    Turkey not against officials joining Armenian genocide issue commission

    Anatolia news agency
    4 May 05

    Ankara, 4 May: As brainstorming continued on the joint commission
    thought to be formed by Turkey and Armenia to examine so-called
    Armenian genocide allegations, Ankara is not against participation
    of officials in this commission, sources said on Wednesday [4 May].

    Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan has proposed Armenian
    President Robert Kocharyan to set up a joint commission comprised
    of Turkish and Armenian historians and experts to examine Turkish,
    Armenian and third countries' archives regarding the so-called Armenian
    genocide claims.

    Kocharyan responded to this proposal saying that this commission
    should be intergovernmental.

    Diplomatic sources in Ankara are not against the statement made
    by Laura Kennedy, the US State Department assistant secretary for
    European and Eurasian Affairs, that these two proposals could be
    realized together.

    Sources told AA [Anatolia] correspondent that Turkey did not think
    that the commission must be comprised of historians alone when laying
    this proposal down.

    The same sources said that Turkey thought that historians, academicians
    and scientists from France, Germany, Russia, Britain and the United
    States could also participate in this commission as well as those
    from Turkey and Armenia. Also, the same sources noted, the commission
    should also include officials from Turkey and Armenia, and stated that
    two commissions, one comprised of historians and one from officials,
    could be set up.

    The same sources said that the commission to be comprised of officials
    could be at the level of technocrats.
