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.

    Yes, well said.....since we are on the CU train.

    EU is not lost to Armenia unlike some say.....we always play both sides sooner or later somehow somewhere with timing.

    Why should Armania's membership in the CU help to get Ukraine on board? How did you come to this conclusion? I don't see any real causal link.

    So for all of Armenia's poodling to Russia, it has ended up in an even weaker position than before. Armenia has given the EU the finger and got a useless customs union with Russia in return, one which even Russia will no longer care about because Russia only wanted Armenia in to get Ukraine on board too. Armenia needs to discard the Customs Union asap, get back to negotiations with the EU beforre it is too late, and also keep an eye on what is happening in the Crimea - and if border changes happen, be ready to make potentual comparisons with NK.

This is not a be and let be situation-this is the encirclement of Russia by NATO. NATO is a tool of USA hegemony and it will be used along with others to destroy anyone standing in the way of new world order. The big fish to fry for these aholes are Russia and China in that order. The competition you see for post soviet space is about much more then the medium to small states being fought over-this is one of those cases where the whole picture only emerges when you put all the little ones together. Russia is fighting for her life and nothing less.
    I definitely do agree with the latter, about the intention to surround Russia, but I still think a majority of the country wants this with or without any outside encouragement. We'll see how things develop. Right now though they're not looking good. Looks like neither side is deciding to let it be.

    lmao cmon you're really reaching on that one. An Armenian from Azerbaijan who grew up in Ukraine, who probably barely ever set a foot in Armenia. A majority of ethnic Ukrainians wanted this, and I don't have a doubt about that. Is it ultimately better for them, we'll see, but I don't have a doubt this was the will of Ukrainians. And the talks of Ukrainian splitting is over blown. There are only 2 districts out of 24 that have a Russian Speaking majority. If Ukraine was smart, it would just let Crimea be. Its not a region that belongs to them anyway, and the have way more than they can handle. And if the Russia leadership had some intelligence it would let Ukraine be, and let them make their own choices. Independently, Ukraine is going to be in trouble and will want to strike a middle between the two sides. But if Russia keeps instigating Ukraine, it will only drive them further, and closer to the EU

    Heh kinda funny how they picked an Armenian to head the revolutionary government. This is a clear attempt to reach out to Armenia and destabilize her to. Prorussian forces have seized control of airports in Crimea. There is no going back now Ukraine will either be divided or a huge war is in the making. The guys in the other thread are rightfully worried about possible restart of war between Azeris and us during this period. I got a feeling we got another Georgia crisis on our hands.

    "You fail to give reasons why anyone in Britain, France or America would have thought that Armenia was worth the life of a single Briton, or Frenchman, or American."
    I never said anything like this. Now your putting words into my mouth which is one of your older tricks..Armenia and Armenians would have been better off without any of these imperial pigs.

    Events seem to be happening quicker than I had expected.
