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.

    Born in Yerevan...

    Moved to South Dakota at the age of 10 (don't ask, haha...the common reaction I get is "What the hell was an Armenian doing in South Dakota?!?!?" For the ignorant, SD is a state of the US. ...

    Moved to California at the age of 18, for college...but permanently...

    Went back to Armenia in 2000 for 2 months (best 2 months of my life ever since I moved to the states in '93)...

    As far as which one I prefer...nothing will ever beat my motherland. I plan to go back.

      Originally posted by Emil I was born in Tehran. We moved to the states when I was 1. So I don't remember anything. That was 25 years ago. We first moved to San Diego, then a bunch of other places. From Pre-School to 7th grade I changed schools 5 times.

      Have you thought of going back Emil?

            Oh and as far as liking it here or there, well you these temporal things are funny, for how do I compare a past that is gone, by a present that never will be that past, in two different worlds?

            I can't really say.

              I've thought of it. I don't think it will happen unless the political climate changes. The main reason is because if I go back everybody says they'll keep me and make me join the army. I dunno, but I would like to visit.

                He he, not if you have fat pockets and buy yourself out, that is what majority of Rabizes did during the war with Azerbadarjan. All the great guys went to meet their death, while the scum squatted on the corners, spat, picked wax out of their furry ears and threw dirty comments at every skirt passing by.

                    Correction: They died why? Because they didn't have enough money to buy themselves out. Half of these guys were talented as hell and were a lot more passionate about contributing art or music to their country. Besides it was a draft, you didn't have a choice, if they knock on your door either you go or pay. No nationalism there, just plain corruption.

                      Like I said, behold the bullxxxx of nationalism.

                      What the xxxx is a draft if anything but coercion at its finest?
