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.

    Sinners can not judge sinners, & we are all sinners

      The bones don't exist. Fossils aren't bones. Their age can't be determined. It's all B.S. Most people think the skeletons they see in the museum are real bones.

        What about the bones retrieved from the "LaBrea"(sp?) tar pits in LA?
        I thought the tar actually preserved them pretty well by stoping the air as well as minerals from contact.
        Also not all bones found have completely mineralized(fossilized) and some DNA has been retrieved.

          If i was trying to fit in i would be just like you because that is how most americans and armenians think. The fact that i question the status quo means i am not trying to fit in. No religion stands up to reason and reason is all i can justify believing in.

            People that don't live for the world are the one's who live for Christ & once again Christianity is not a religion.
            Haykakan, do you know the definition of religion?

            It are rules that are made by man, therefore Christianity is not a religion

              definition of religion http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/religion - it even mentions chrystianity as an example. Chrystianity like all other religions is made by man. Perhaps you follow your own brand but that is still made by man either way you look at it.

                  In all the debates I've seen between atheists and men of the cloth, I have never, ever heard anyone argue that Christianity is not a religion, so pretty much any religious person would disagree with you there. You and other bible enthusiasts say so many inconsistent things yet you claim to know some truth that the rest of us don't know about. And whenever someone challenges your ideas with a reasoned argument you tell them they don't understand and you do, even though you don't feel the need to actually explain any of your ideas. Wow, what could be more brilliant than that?

                  Most of the prison population is highly religious. The suicide bombing community is pretty much all religious. The genital mutilation community is exclusively religious.

                  Most people in advanced learning are atheists or simply deists. So we're supposed to believe that murderers and rapists in jail know the truth about the nature of existence while astrophysicists and astronomers are just dead wrong. This is why religion is anti-intellectual at its core - It claims to have the truth of the universe already.

                    Astrophysics and astronomy are not real sciences since they are not called math I guess all the religious people are math wizzes and we will never be able to understand them and their math based religionFor those who speak of judgment day you should know that everyday you live you are judged by those around you and not by some invisible ghost who loves you but is just itching to watch you burn in hell for all of eternity.
