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.

    GREEK AMERICANS CALL FOR ADOPTION OF ARMENIAN GENOCIDE LEGISLATION

    -- American Hellenic Institute Urges Committee
    Passage of H.Res. 316 and H.Con.Res. 195

    WASHINGTON, DC - The American Hellenic Institute (AHI), today,
    urged House International Relations Committee Chairman Henry Hyde
    (R-IL) to work for committee approval of Armenian Genocide
    legislation, set to be considered by the panel on Thursday,
    September 15, reported the Armenian National Committee of America
    (ANCA).

    In a September 13th letter to Chairman Hyde, AHI Executive Director
    Nick Larigakis, explained that, "Americans of Hellenic origin, and
    I believe most Americans, have long held that the U.S. Congress
    should be on record as recognizing the Armenian Genocide,
    commemorating this crime against all humanity, and applying its
    lessons to help prevent future atrocities and genocides." He went
    on to note that "Sadly, due to the powerful pressure brought to
    bear by the Turkish lobby's threats and intimidation, legislation
    along these lines has been blocked from passage."

    "We want to thank Nick Larigakis and all our friends at the
    American Hellenic Institute for their steadfast support for U.S.
    recognition of the Armenian Genocide," said ANCA Executive Director
    Aram Hamparian. "The assistance of our Greek American allies for
    this legislation means a great deal to us - here in Washington, DC,
    and in communities around the country."

    The American Hellenic Institute strengthens United States relations
    with Greece and Cyprus and within the American Hellenic community.

    Congressional support for Armenian Genocide legislation (H.Res.316
    and H.Con.Res.195) continued to grow this week, with House
    Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) joining Ways and Means
    Committee Chairman Bill Thomas (R-CA) in pledging support for
    H.Res.316.
