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.

    No. It shows the world is being more politically correct, hardly an improvement.

      that's only if somebody assumes that the whites are more qualified or that the employers are hiring for the same reasons. what's your idea of improvement then? it being all white so it's honest? that's dumb. it has to start somewhere.

        Let's not drag this thread off topic. You're making baseless assumptions. My idea of improvement is for the government to stop forcing laws on people forcing integration or affirmitive action. Your position assumes that an unqualified black deserves the job because he is black. That sounds racist to me.

          lol that wasn't offtopic and it wasn't baseless. i'm not saying that unqualified people deserve anything. you just made a baseless assumption. i don't like affirmatrive action either. but it isn't everywhere or anything. maybe theyre being hired because the company likes them. how do you know they were hires because of affirmative action? your assuming taht there was a white guy who didn't get the job.

            How do I know? Because if you visit the post office, or the DMV, or any other state government offices, where you see fat black ladies that are the laziest workers in the world, you know they were hired by affirmitive action, during the Tom Bradley era.

              see? you just made it go offtopic. this isn't about government run stuff. it's calling companies. and sure you can find examples but not enough that if you call somewhere and hear someone with an accent that they are there becvause of affirmative action.

                You must be new. What you are trying to do at the moment is playing handball against the wall. No matter what you do the ball bounces back. Move on with your foruming.

                    Companies must meet 'equal' hiring practices. And I can tell when someone is black or not over the phone, based on accent alone.

                      it doesn't mean that somebody was hired for that reason only. you are assuming they are the less qualified choice.

                      and so can everyone else! jeez! i didn't say you couldn't.
