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.

  • In Order To Normalize Relations, Armenia And Turkey Should Forgo From Putting Forward

    IN ORDER TO NORMALIZE RELATIONS, ARMENIA AND TURKEY SHOULD FORGO FROM
    PUTTING FORWARD ANY PRECONDITIONS, ACGRC HEAD SAYS

    YEREVAN, AUGUST 11, NOYAN TAPAN. The Analytical Center of
    Globalization and Regional Cooperation (ACGRC) and the Fridrich Ebert
    Fund held on August 11 a seminar to discuss the current state and
    perspectives of the Armenian-Turkish relations and the problem of the
    recognition of the Armenian genocide. In the opinion of Arsen Avagian,
    an advisor of the RA Ministry of Interior Affairs, today some change
    regarding the issue of the recognition of the Armenian genocide can be
    observed in the Turkish society. In particular, a mood has become more
    pronounced among the Turkish intelligentsia, according to which the
    problem of the Genocide cannot be solved by its constant denial.

    According to A. Avagian, "many in Turkey speak in favor of taking the
    issue of the Armenian genocide off the international agenda and making
    it a subject of the bilateral Armenian-Turkish discussion."

    A. Avagian considered it desirable that the Turkish government would
    recognize the Genocide under the pressure of the Turkish society
    itsdelf, from which the truth about the tragic events of the beginning
    of the 20th century was concealed for many years, rather than under
    the influence of the international community. According to the ACGRC
    Head Stepan Grigorian, the problem of the Genocide recognition should
    be taken off the agenda of Armenia's foreign policy, and only experts
    and the Armenian Dispora should deal with it. "The experience of the
    past ten years shows that the Armenian genocide has been recognized by
    states either procceding from their own interests or thanks to the
    activities of the Diaspora. It has no relation to the position of the
    RA state institutions and the activities of the political elite." In
    the opinion of S. Grigorian, the issue of the Genocide recognition
    should become a subject of the bilateral Armenian-Turkish
    discussion. He noted that Armenia should clearly differentiate the
    Armenian-Turkish relations and the Armenian-Azerbaijani ones in order
    to normalize the relations with Turkey. Besides, both countries shou!
    ld forgo from putting forward any preconditions and not take steps
    that may lead to further escalation of the tension in the bilateral
    relations, which actually took place as a result of arresting Ektan
    Turkielmaz, a Turkish scientist, on smuggling charges.
