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.

  • Media Advisory - The Armenian Genocide makes world television premiere on TVO'S Human

    Attention News Editors:

    Media Advisory - The Armenian Genocide makes world television premiere on TVO'S Human Edge
    TORONTO, April 7 /CNW/ - On Wednesday April 12 at 10 pm, TVO's acclaimed
    Human Edge will present the world premiere of The Armenian Genocide. Written,
    produced, and directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Andrew Goldberg, this
    fascinating point-of-view documentary explores what many believe to be the
    first genocide of the 20th century. Between 1915 and 1923 over a million
    Armenians perished under the rule of the Ottoman Empire. In the hour-long
    film, Goldberg speaks with Armenian, Turkish, and American scholars and
    historians to shed light on the historical events that precipitated the
    genocide, and why the Turkish government of today continues to deny such
    events ever occurred. The film also features Kurdish and Turkish citizens in
    present-day Turkey who openly share stories told to them by their parents and
    grandparents.
    To facilitate further understanding of this hotly-debated subject, the
    documentary will be preceded at 8 pm on the night of broadcast by a panel
    discussion on TVO's Studio 2. The current affairs show's regular international
    affairs panel of Janice Stein, director of the Munk Centre for International
    Studies, University of Toronto; Globe and Mail editor, Patrick Martin; and
    Toronto Star columnist Richard Gwyn will help to place the Armenian genocide
    into context. Viewers will also be able to follow the Studio 2 discussion
    online at www.tvo.org/humanedge.
    As of April 7, viewers will also be able to register in our online
    discussion board at www.tvo.org/humanedge to express their views, as well as
    access links to other relevant websites.
    Now in its 17th successful season, Human Edge is TVO's acclaimed series
    of challenging, provocative, point-of-view documentaries from around the
    world. Hosted by award-winning writer and broadcaster Ian Brown, Human Edge
    provides viewers with windows into complex or touchy subjects that make up the
    human experience to expand their horizons and foster healthy debate. Executive
    producer is Rudy Buttignol.

    TVO has received many letters

    Recently TVO has announced that it too will be airing the Andrew Goldberg documentary on April 12, 2006 at 10:00pm and once again on April 16th at 12:00 midnight. Unfortunately, TVO has received many letters, email, and phone calls from individuals to stop the airing of the documentary. With over a hundred complaint letters, the station is having second thoughts.

    We have witnessed the power of unifying for a cause and how timely responses, letters from viewers and citizens of the world can have an effect on events. It is very important in this pressing time, to write a letter of appreciation and encouragement to TVO commending them on their decision to air the documentary.

    We strongly encourage you to take action by visiting our web site www.armenian.ca and fill out the online form.

    Please spread the word around by forwarding this email to your friends.


    There's another method of contact: email TVO at:

    http://www.tvo.org/TVO/WebObjects/TVO.woa?contact , there is an online form available, as well as telephone and mailing contacts.

    Please spread the word around by forwarding this email to your friends.

      Armenian Genocide documentary to be broadcasted in Canada

      On April 12, TVO-2 TV-channel (Canada) broadcasted The Armenian Genocide documentary by Andrew Goldenberg.



      As REGNUM is told in press office of the Armanian Foreign Ministry, Turkish organizations in Canada have launched a campaign to have an hour-long discussion before the documentary with participation of “Turkish historians”, however leadership of the Canadian TV-company limited to an unbiased 5-7 minutes long discussion with participation of three local journalists. The Armenian Genocide documentary will be broadcasted by the TV-channel on April 16 and twice on April 24. US WNED Buffalo TV-channel will show the film on April 17 and 21.

        CPTV Shows Genocide Documentary

        April 17, 2006
        The Turkish government still denies the overwhelming evidence of the first genocide of the 20th century: more than 1 million Armenians killed by Ottoman Turks during World War I.

        A new documentary, "The Armenian Genocide" (CPTV, 10 p.m.), lays out the record in a way that should allay any doubts. But a planned panel discussion that was to have accompanied the film was scotched, in part because it was to include a denier.
