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.

    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.
    What is Turkish culture?what exactly did not exist 1000 years ago?I did not talk about turks of west nor east i don't give a dam about ur differences they are all coming from the different population that u have in east Kurds and west turks,Cultural similarity's we have even today with greeks mostly with pontus greeks (dances music songs legends atc.)

          Amongst an enlarged Armenian and Kurdish country, you mean? ) I assume i have no other choice.

          I would definetely prefer you. Armenian population is much more educated, civilized, used to be hard working (i don't know how soviets changed the structure of the population) etc. But our issues with you is much deeper than the ones we have with Kurds. Will you be able to love us again? I don't think so. I love you no matter what you think though. I have problems with the policies of ROA and the diaspora institutions, I don't hate people, it is ridiculous.

          Thank you any way since you did not insult me at all by any means (I am not just adressing to you, Anoush, Everyone). Let me say this, I am a good guy, I do not want any one to be harmed, at least physically. Sentimentally, what I wish for my country is no good for Armenia, I am really aware of that. I just want you to know that I think what I think for the good of my country not to harm any Armenians and I'd know my limits if I was the one to take actions for my country. Being civilized is important in 21th century, isn't? (This is the part I might expect to hear such sentences from you: Turks and civilization, no way, they are like the opposite poles of a magnet. I know many think this way but I really don't care any more.)

          Be in peace.

              You would be correct if hiding bitter truths were good for anyone's country.If you think true democracy is bad for your country then you will deserve what you get.If not, you should support Armenia and Armenians, because we were one of the pioneers of democracy in Turkey and paid a heavy price for it.

                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.



                We are local population. DNA searchs show this.
                DNA search shows 14 different races that u have in ur blood,that only can make u claim all the east and Balkans,here we are again talking about Turkish Empire(Ataturk's dream u cant avoid it Ottoman Empire has fail but u got ur new Dream) really what can i do about it?So now that i got the legal right to claim this region i cant?Benizelos voted for Wilson's Map cause he know that Pontus state cant be exist it were 2 far away from Greece,Armenia were the right decision to cede it to them he knew what he were doing.Todays Turks are far away legal owners of those lands,in 94 years u have found the legal owners of those land ha?So why did the Genocide happened cause obviously u were the legal owners of those lands.Ur blood dose not mean any thing u are more mongol that any thing else,face it behind all those blood paths u will always serve ur first blood line,even if ur government makes u think that ur are the ancestors of those lands and try to find proofs that u exist in those land so long as the 1 that u have murder all those centuries,its all part of ur propaganda.

                  Very good points. If I am a true Christian and I am, then I must not hate you as you are as well as myself created by the same God that you believe in as I do. Then I shouldn't hate you if you people can control some of your fascist's brothers' hate. I am sure most Armenians in Armenia that are the new generation of the Armenians do not hate turks as they wanted to see the borders open and most of them were hopeful for the betterment of both countries. My goodness look at Hrant Dink, how hopeful and well meaning he was towards your people and even your government. All he wanted for the turkish people and the government to bravely come forth and recognise the Genocide so that we would be able to come to grips with our almost a century ago differences. I call him a saintly man and I know from inside sources that he was just that. Even through the Ottoman times the bulk of the Armenian people wanted to live peacefully and be treated fairly and to live without persecution or criminality. They just wanted to work hard, be treated somewhat fairly and to live in peace. Now most of the new generation of the Armenians in Armenia just wished the Genocide to be recognised and did not exercise hatefulness towards your people. Some are afraid as it is very uncertain how turkey behaves (they say one thing but they do another). Armenians are more forthright, straightforward, trusting and civilised.

                  You are welcomed. I hear you and understand you that first off you think for Turkey as I do for Armenia. I shall be a hyppocrit if I don't admit or understand that. As you put it well; we are living in the 21st century and wouldn't it be better all around if instead of shedding blood and creating war, we come to terms with our differences and give or take the just parts that belong or not belong to us for the good of living in peace as neighbours? Anyhow now there's a great deal of turkish people that are mixed with either Greek or Armenian blood but the mentality is very turkish still, I know that. Well, stay and live as a Turkish man while I stay and live as an Armenian woman; but it would be better to learn to be fair and live fairly towards other human beings for the sake of peace, while we're all living under the same sun.

                  And you be in peace as well.

                    I don't think at all that democracy is bad for my country. I have the feeling that we are not a first class democracy but things are a lot better as compared to other muslim countries.

                    I know that there are many university graduates who are very well educated and i also know that the average literacy rate is 4th or 5th grade in the country or something like that. I happen to think that democracy take its power from the citizens. No body gives it to you, you fight for it.

                    Education and welfare are the very things that will make this country more democratic.

                      Hrant Dink's unfair death is still a great pain in the hearts of many Turks.

                      Just don't believe that only Armenians were in his funeral but not Turks. It is so untrue. There were many Turks there as well.

                      Hrant was not the first person and unfortunately will not be the last person this nation lost because of political beliefs. We lost our 37 can (this is a Turkish word meaning live or life but it has a much deeper meaning) in 1993.
                      We lost many intellectuals.
