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.

    Arto Tuncboyaciyan - Le Voyage En Armenie

    I thought I would post my thoughts on this album here after giving it many many listens. I would call this pop music, but not in a demeaning way at all, an certainly not what you've heard from Armenian pop music. This album is original, there are more than a few songs that push Armenian music forward, which is really refreshing to hear in this day with our music being mixed with hip hop and all the rest of that crap. Also unlike "classical" albums this one is really easy to get into. There is at least one track that uses electronic instruments, not sampled, original, well suited. The album is also very well structured, with a healthy mix of songs/vocals into instrumental parts.

    I am really happy to see an album such as this, pushing Armenian music forward. We need more artists who strive to seek originality within our music whilst not fearing to use innovative techniques such as electronic instruments. To just mix hip hop/techno/trance into Armenian music is one thing, to manufacture a desired sound to use along side [or to make sound similar to] our familiar instruments is another. IMO It is essential in maintaining our culture, keep our music from getting stagnant and not letting it get lost within others.

    I would have uploaded a few tracks, but I think this album really needs to be heard in its entirety to be appreciated (I can't stop listening to it). Find it, listen to it, and buy it to support the artist.

    Arto Tunçboyacıyan's brother Onno Tunç(he went by this name) is one of the greatest names of Turkish pop music. He worked with almost every decent Turkish pop music artist.

    An album was dedicated for him on the 10th anniversary of his passing away.
