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 INITIATES RECONSTRUCTION OF RUINS OF ARMENIAN CITY OF ANI

    ISTANBUL, MARCH 31, NOYAN TAPAN - ARMENIANS TODAY. The Ministry of
    Tourism of Turkey initiated a program of reconstruction of ruins of the
    historic Armenian city of Ani. According to the Turkish "Zaman" daily's
    correspondent from Erzrum, excavations will last in Ani for 10 years,
    after what the reconstruction is envisaged. Professor Hamza Gundogdu,
    the Chief of the Art History Department of the "Ataturk" University
    was elected by the Ministry for implementation of the program. He
    will gather a staff to start works in Ani just this year. Lecturers
    and 35 students will be involved in works. This year the excavations
    will start from the so called Arslanl door of the Ani ruins and will
    get to the door of Kars. Work will be done near Manuchehri in 2007,
    and near the castles and city of Ani in 2008. In 2010 th inner
    part of the castle will be taken out, and in 2011-2015 work will
    be done for strengthening ruins and taking out the inner riches of
    the castle. Before excavation works, Gundogdu carried out necessary
    researches and assured that he will do an impartial work. The first
    excavations were carried out in Ani in 1892 by Nikoghayos Marr.

    The excavations were again re-started in 1917. Turkish Professor
    Kemal Balkan was engaged in that affair in 1964. His works lasted two
    years. Beyhan Karamaghal from the "Hajettepe" University implemented
    the same work in 1988-2005.

    The interesting issue of this initiative of the Turkish Government
    is the one that, as the "Marmara" daily of Istanbul emphasizes, name
    of Armenians was mentioned nowhere. It's written under the picture
    representing the present state of the city of Ani that Ani which
    is the first city captured by Turks, has "numerous historic riches"
    belonging to Seljuks.

    Unfortunatly by "excavations" they meen digging up bones of Armenian priests buried under the church floors, collecting and crushing up the bones and burrying them in holes they have dugg elsewhere. I have seen this with my own eyes BTW.
