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.

Iran’s Ahmadinejad Due In Armenia

    Iran’s Ahmadinejad Due In Armenia

    Iran’s Ahmadinejad Due In Armenia



    (Photolur photo: Ahmadinejad and Kocharian pictured during the pipeline inauguration.)

    Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will arrive in Armenia Monday on a first-ever official visit which the two neighboring states hope will cement their political and especially economic ties.

    President Robert Kocharian’s office said on Friday that the two-day trip will result in the signing of more Iranian-Armenian agreements on “bilateral cooperation.” It said Ahmadinejad will hold talks with Kocharian, deliver a speech in the Armenian parliament and meet students and professors at Yerevan State University.

    Ahmadinejad is also scheduled to meet with Iranians livings in Armenia and visit a 18th century Iranian mosque in Yerevan.

    The outspoken Iranian leader already paid a brief visit to Armenia last March to inaugurate, together with Kocharian, the first Armenian section of a natural gas pipeline from Iran. The two men hailed the development as a new milestone in Armenian-Iranian ties. The pipeline’s second, much longer section is due to be completed by the end of next year.

    Yerevan and Tehran are also pressing ahead with the implementation of other multimillion-dollar energy projects. That includes the construction of two hydro-electric plants on the Arax River marking the Armenian-Iranian border and a third high-voltage transmission line linking their power grids.

    Also, the foreign ministers of the two nations, who co-chair an inter-governmental commission on economic cooperation, signed a memorandum in Yerevan in July on the start of feasibility studies on the ambitious ideas of building an Armenian-Iranian railway and a Russian-owned oil refinery that would process Iranian crude. In addition, the Armenian and Iranian governments have been working on a bilateral free trade agreement that could be signed by the end of this year.

    Armenia’s growing ties with Iran prompted concern from the United States recently, with a senior American diplomat warning that they might run counter to international sanctions imposed on Tehran over its controversial nuclear program.

    Iran Grants Transit Right To Armenian Forwarders

    Iran Grants Transit Right To Armenian Forwarders


    Yerevan, October 15 /Armenpress/ Under an agreement signed by Armenian and Iranian officials last week in Tehran Armenian forwarding companies now can send their trucks across Iran to Bandar Abbas and Engeli ports on the Caspian Sea and proceed from there to Russia's eastern parts and Central Asian countries.
    The news was announced today by Armenian deputy transport and communication minister Hrant Beglarian who led an Armenian delegation for talks in Tehran on October 8-13.
    He said one of the goals of the Tehran visit was to specify and find solutions to a set of transport issues ahead of Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's, planned visit to Armenia later this year.
    Beglarian said 50,000 Iranian trucks use Armenian territory as a transit country annually, while Armenians trucks were deprived of the right to use Iran as a transit country although Armenia is a member of the so-called North-South transport corridor.
    The deputy minister said Armenia's foreign trade through Iranian territory in the first nine months of this year amounted to 200,000 metric tons, which made only 2-3 percent of the overall trade. He said the agreement will change this ratio drastically allowing Armenian companies to start active trade with Central Asian nations. The agreement will also result in substantial reduction of transportation tariffs, he said.
    He said the Iranians side was pleased with Armenia's pledge to open a new Kapan-Meghri road before the end of this year that will allow Iranian trucks to cut the trip to Yerevan by several hours and is expected to boost bilateral trade.

          He's a psycho. While Armenia should continue to pursue mutually beneficial relations with Iran, they should try to distance themselves from that...man.
