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: Happy Birthday Ara Baliozian!

    Here is a video full of Hayotz patriots (whom Ara, mocks as "hooligans").

    Enjoy it Ara. Perhaps for a moment you can live vicariously through these men - because at no time in your life, have you ever had the intestinal fortitude to sacrifice what theses men do.

    Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

      Let's not forget our brothers in Artsakh: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AoVTU80Ycc

      Just one of those military conscripts, serving willingly or unwillingly, is worth more than a million Ara Baliozians writing nonsensical crap in Canada...

      In an ideal world, these "Ara" types would be used as targets in target practice

          ALIEN TRASH
          ********************************
          You cannot tell people what to think and how to feel. You can only speak of your own thoughts and feelings and all the mud that is flung in your direction by dupes simply because you refuse to subscribe to their lies, which are not even theirs; or, as Zarian puts it: “even their trash is picked up from alien streets.”
          *
          I cannot adapt. I cannot change colors like a chameleon. Call it an evolutionary failure. My kind may well be headed for extinction. That doesn’t mean I will exit in silence.
          *
          To how many of my critics (if you will forgive the overstatement) I could say: When I was your age – and it makes no difference if you are nine or ninety – I too pretended to know and understand things that I didn’t, and succeeded only in making an ass of myself.
          *
          No man can be said to be an authority on his fellow men, let alone himself, because most of our real self is buried in our subconscious. We can only speak of unverified and unverifiable theories and guesses.
          *
          No need to contradict someone who lives in a world of illusions because reality will be his most effective and persistent contradictor.

            I realize you are calling me a coward because I won't post my identity online, but your contetion that I admire "anonymous cowards" after I just posted a video praising Armenian soldiers...well, for that all I can do is soberly say that not only are you a hateful malcontent, but you are a son-of-a-xxxxx as well.

              It would be useful for all Armenians to be reminded once in a while that we live in a world where wars and massacres are dime-a-dozen routine occurrences.
              *
              Leaders, all leaders, even the most enlightened and progressive, share in common the conviction that the less the people know the better.
              *
              Sooner or later every Armenian writer must resign himself to the fact that there isn’t much he can say to readers who know better and have all the answers.
              *
              We like to say that xxxs go out of their way to support their own and that we go out of our way too but only in the opposite direction. But I am suspicious of all ethnic or racial generalizations. In my view, it is a fact of human nature that envious mediocrities will do their utmost to obstruct the path of anyone that threatens to expose their mediocrity.
              *
              Reason alone is not enough, but reason is all we have in a world where faith, dogma, and subservience -- that is unreason -- are synonymous.
              *
              Breakdowns occur because we cannot go on deceiving ourselves, others, and least of all, reality.
              *
              When a man says God is on his side, he is sure to be closer to the Devil.

                i can understand your rage.
                it must be painful indeed
                to praise heroism in others
                but to choose cowardice for oneself.

                  Calm down Ara, there was no rage...remember, I wrote "soberly", as in "as-a-matter-of-fact", you are a "hateful malcontent and a son of a xxxxx". Moreover, there is nothing shocking or scandalous in this evident observation. You have been in this unhealthy human condition for decades now. Why would another stupid comment from you get my blood pressure up?

                  BTW Ara,I'm disappointed in your response (above). If I did not already know you are an old man, I would think you were 14 years old. Honestly Ara, couldn't you have come up with something better than a simple adolescent taunt.

                  Anyway, happy birthday

                    Siamanto, don't expect me to engage into systematic bashing of fellow armenians. You should really make an effort and stick to the field of ideas. Nobody prevents you from defending your positions.
                    I'm happy to hear that you feel that way, as nobody invited - or had plans to invite - you to such an exercise! *says with sarcasm* In case you failed to notice it, on a public forum a statement may trigger a reply when it seems of relevance to provide clarifications; as you have "invited" me - with your "bashing" comment, I had the "courtesy" to provide clarification.

                    In any case, I understand your choice to be politically correct, but, as I have already explained, don't expect me to call a hooligan otherwise.
                    Of course, I would not call HayotzAmrotz a "hooligan" - as I did not see him behave as one - but individuals like Dr. Junkestein, Virgil, crusader1492, Lernakan etc. are nothing more than narrow minded, bigoted, intolerant, obscurantist hooligans; they are as "nationalistic" and valuable/respectable as Russian skin heads, American redneck "trailer trashes" that post at stormfront, or...

                    I believe in Voltaire's "cultivate your garden," I also believe that it is unnecessary to take care and invest into fruitless and worthless plants; I consider those hooligans as worthless. My perception is that they behave as Jurks, and I value them as much as value Jurks.

                    We don't seem to have the same assessment of the situation. As I see it
                    1. More and more members of the forum are confronting them
                    2. The perception of the forum of what and who they are have changed - including yours???

                    I consider the above as a positive development because it forced some of them to slightly tone down their rhetoric; however, they still have a long way from ceasing to be hooligans.
                    What if I find someone else when looking for you? My soul shivers as the idea invades my mind.

                      **************************************
                      ON TURKISH LOVE & ARMENIAN HATRED
                      ************************************************** *****
                      If Turks love me and Armenians hate me (this according to one of my gentle anonymous readers on the Internet) it may be because Turks are not always wrong and Armenians not always right -- especially when it comes to judging their fellow Armenians.
                      To avoid recognizing the devil in us we demonize others –i.e. we project. In the same way that xxxs demonize anti-Semites, and some blacks demonize white men (“White man is the devil”), we demonize not only Turks and the Great Powers of the West, but also anyone who dares not to be on our side. On more than one occasion I have myself been demonized by fellow Armenians simply because I refuse to parrot their favorite brand of propaganda. Hence my skepticism of all blame-games.
                      Playing the blame-game might as well be synonymous with being infallible, and being infallible means an inability to learn from one’s mistakes, because in order to learn from them one must first admit them.
                      An addict of the blame-game is a morally bankrupt man because he’d rather lose his reason than give up his addiction.
                      As for Turks loving me: as far as I know, Turks don’t read me, and if they read me, they don’t comment on what I write. The only Turk who has written me agrees with me that Armeno-Turkish relations will have a better chance to improve on the day extremists on both sides are marginalized thus allowing the moderates the upper hand.
                      As for Armenians who hate me: I also have a good number of Armenian readers who agree with me, and others who are critical only because I don’t go far enough in my criticism. My comment on Armenians who hate me: their verbal abuse is such that it does not require any comment on my part.
