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.

      Re: Where do you get your movies from?

      I see movies in theatres cause they're just always better on the big screen. Sometimes I'll watch them online(not download), if I've just missed them in theatres and don't want to wait to rent/buy them. I buy the dvds for the movies I like best, and if a movie was good but not enough to buy I'll rent it.

        Re: Where do you get your movies from?

        I can't believe so many of you still rent! How much does renting a DVD cost? 3-5 dollars? That's how much I used to pay for DVDs. I haven't bought any DVDs for months because of Blu-ray, but the last 20 or so DVDs I've bought cost me less than $5 each; brand new, sealed. Only reason Blockbuster still stands is because of online rentals; watch that collapse and say goodbye to all stores.

        I would use Netflix but it doesn't fit my demands. I can't wait a day or two until my movies to reach me; especially during my film marathon, I was pushing 3 films a day.

        I don't see any harm in downloading movies, it's the same as much and I end up buying most of them anyway for my collection. I currently have 12 movies downloaded on my computer. I burn them, watch them, erase disc, burn them, watch them, and so on.

        Meanwhile, I search through TCM and other channels and record movies I can't seem to download. This is the most convenient way for me.

          I don't know how much of the country these Red Box vending machines have spread to, but at $1/movie per day, plus your first one being free (and free for as many different credit cards as you can use ), I use that to assess if I like a movie, and if I do, I buy the actual DVD. For as cheap as most DVDs can be had now, I find downloading them silly.

          I just might have the most cheaply assembled new DVD collection EV4R!!!111 Each week, I'll look at the online flyers for stores like Best Buy, and if I find something of interest, I snag it. I've spent no more than $4, to maybe $10 at most if I want the super duper, 8 billion disc versions of a DVD.

            I download, watch and delete it within 24 hrs. Zero waste, no packaging... good for the environment. Much like O.B. tampons... want not, waste not. Also makes good use out of the price paid for cable internet.

                  Netflix has more than one plan and you can change it... so when you're doing your marathons you can have more than 3 out at a time.

                    Yeah, I saw that plan. Either way, it didn't work well because when I receive my 3 films and finish them in a day, I have to wait 1-2 days until I receive another 3. What do I do in the meantime?

                      No, you can have 5, 6, 7, or 8 at a time. There's flexibility. So if you were watching 2 or 3 a day for a few days in a row, 8 at a time plan would be fine to eliminate a delay.
