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.

    Ask us, will tell you about how "reality" can change.
    Ask us about the land of milk and honey
    Ask us about the secrets of life
    Ask us about your soul.
    Yeah, sure thing what you say. However, I have also dreams for my country (not turanic dreams of course, they were the most stupid people ever) and many people have dreams in Turkey like you do have your own.

    I am not a semi-liberal. What I would dream is a country in which all of its people regardless of their ethnicities and religions can speak others' language, respect others' faith and live peacefully, work and think for one purpose; for the good of the people of their country and that of the humanity.

    I am just being realistic and acting in accordance with the way of thinking of a nation-state that I am the citizen of (or the way of thinking I want the country to have).

      If Turkey is convicted of commiting Genocide against Armenians in an internationally recognised court like in the case of Nuremberg trials, we have to pay reparations to Armenians who lost their lives due to deportation.
      That is a fact no body can deny.

          They are not the copy of Armenian culture. It is the combination of Armenian and Turkish culture. It is something that did not exist 1000 years ago. That is what Anatolia is. When you go to West, you are gonna see the same. Some culture combination of Greek and Turkish culture. In the south, you're gonna see the combination of Arabic, Turkish and Kurdish cultures.

          Nobody denies that but only stupids.

          I am gonna acept this "we were there in the first place" explanation when other new comers to the new world are gone back to Europe. It does not make sense. The difference is Native Americans do not have the power to voice their wishes, or they do not wish it or there is too little of them.

            Today we're all from Trabzon!

            Let us not believe reality!

            We must dream big, and dream the impossible!
            And You would risk something for that dream. If you want to take risk, Np for me. But I will not bet much for your success.
            And what gives the right to u the Turks to take the place of the local population?We had strong cultural ties with Pontus greeks even from ancient times they had Armenian Kings just like Georgia,we were the dominant culture in the region look at there dances and outfits music they are all copy of Armenian,we had strong armenian population for centuries in the region, don't forget that in Armenia in 1 perion there were more muslims that armenians that makes the place not armenian?

            Population exchange. Anyway, Pontus rums did not copy armenian culture. I am sure you have zero idea about what are you talking. Pontus rums dance, music or food has zero relation with armenia or georgia. You are funny. Go and ask a pontus rum.

            Also, region is not armenian at first.

            Anyway my friend, as you know orginal anatolians are our ancestors. So people at Turkey(and now majority of them call themself as turk) have enough right to own all anatolia and It is not your job, which religion, langauge or culture people of Turkey choose.

            And what gives the right to u the Turks to take the place of the local population?
            We are local population. DNA searchs show this.

              I guess we don't have a problem to say that we, Turks today, might be something else 1000 years ago. Now, we are Turks.

                The 2 biggest problem in Turkey the Fascist goverment, and ignorance.
                "All truth passes through three stages:
                First, it is ridiculed;
                Second, it is violently opposed; and
                Third, it is accepted as self-evident."

                  The Turkish people are mostly mongrel (like Americans,)and enjoy being multi-cultures, and do not approve their governments abusive and oppressive policies, as well as the enforced national amnesia.

                    If only "Turks" (or at least a meaningful portion of them) were aware of that fact. Instead they prefer to believe that they came from Central Asia. It would be wiser to claim kinship with the Greek, Armenian, Kurd, Arab, etc. rather than the Kazak, Kyrgyz, Uygur, etc.

                      I'd prefer the word "state" instead of government. And I don't think Turkish people are champions of tolerance living under a fascist state. Fascism of the people and the state are feeding each other, IMO.
