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.

      I realize that but I took this article directly from the source and did not change a word. They certainly need better translators over there but I assume they are using one of those internet translation services which are often not very accurate.

                Dink Hearing: Judge Finally Reacted to Insults
                At the fourth hearing on Monday, the court finally reacted to the untolerable behaviour of defendants and defense lawyer Fuat Turgut.

                The fourth hearing of the Hrant Dink murder trial on Monday, 25 February, had brought its usual share of tension, as defendants and defense lawyer Fuat Turgut had continued to act insultingly.

                Joint attorney Kezban Hatemi told court president Erkan Canak that she was insulted by suspected gunman O.S. during the hearing.

                Defendant told not to talk

                In another incident, suspect Ersin Yolcu was being cross-examined. He said that O.S. had got on the bus from Trabzon to Istanbul by himself. There has been evidence that O.S. did not go alone after all. However, then police informant and fellow defendant Erhan Tuncel said to Yolcu, “Don’t talk.” Yolcu then refused to answer any more questions. As a result, Tuncel was sent out of the court room.

                Attempted attack on joint attorney

                Later, suspect Yasin Hayal tried to attack joint attorney Erdal Dogan. Hayal had become angry when Dogan asked suspect Yasar Cihan from the Great Union Party (BBP) several questions on the McDonald’s bombing in Trabzon. Hayal had been implicated in the bombing but protected by the police.

                After his attempted attack on Dogan, Hayal was taken out of the court room, too.

                Turgut: A stream of hate speech

                Fuat Turgut, Hayal’s defense lawyer, had said in front of the court, prior to the start of the hearing: “Where is the horde saying ‘We are all Armenian’? May Allah unite them all with their Hrants.”

                During the morning session of the hearing, he said about his client Hayal, “My client is not a murderer, unlike the rabid Armenians.” He was warned after that remark, but later said, “Hrant Dink was from TIKKO (the illegal Turkish Workers and Peasants’ Liberation Army) and a registered traitor.” He also said, “Those defending Armenians are Devsirme (i.e. non-Muslims).”

                Hrant Dink’s daughter Delal Dink finally reacted to Turgut’s taunts, protesting to the court, “Enough! When my father was alive he was called an enemy of the Turks and killed. I cannot stand this any longer.”

                The joint attorneys also argued that a defense could not contain insults and protested. Finally, Judge Canak reacted, citing Article 252/F of Criminal Procedure Law, and sent Turgut out of the court room.

                On 2 July 2007, Turgut had insulted the Dink family and the joint attorneys before the first hearing began. (EÖ/TK/AG)
