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.

    Letter of the law states that all companies must hire without regard to race, gender, sexual preference, or creed. What's so wrong with that? If people are being hired to meet a quota, then I will be angry. If they are being hired with a blind eye to all but their job qualifications, then we are where we should be.

      You see, egalitarian wisdom such as "all companies must hire without discriminating base don race, gender, sexual preference, or creed" is confusing. This assumes that companies will hire the best man for the job, yet hiring the best man for the job is itself discrimination. One cannot do anything without somehow in some way discriminating against someone else. That is a natural human thing, a cognitive ability to differentiate. That above statements shows the idiocy of government policy in creating "equality", by stating some ambiguous phrase and assuming that the companies will not hire based on those criteria. How do we know that someone doesn't disriminate? Are we psychic to somehow tap into the mind of every employer and see their true motive of why they hired certain people?

        What are you talking about? "All companies must hire without discriminating race, gender, sexual preference, or creed" does not say "do not make any discriminations." It says "do not make any discriminations based on race, gender, sexual preference, or creed." Find a new premise.

          That's precisely what it means. If you can't offer anything offer any insights other than "find a new premise" you might as well not post.

            The core arguement of your post directly above this text is a nonsensical connection that I showed in the following post:

            "All companies must hire without discriminating race, gender, sexual preference, or creed" does not say "do not make any discriminations." It says "do not make any discriminations based on race, gender, sexual preference, or creed." Find a new premise.
            This is an insight good enough to post. I know I can find far more useless things in your catalogue of commentary.

              OK OK I think I can trnaslate this one: "Bla bla bla I think I'm superior to all and will always get picked first. Screw everyone else they're llamas. " Clear case of Nietzsche syndrome.

                You're gettin repetitive. Now all you're doing is posting quote and quote. It's better for you to address my post as it is, then to resort to evasive tactics of "find a new premise". I'm left wondering what the hell you're arguing about.

                  It is not an evasive tactic. I invalidated your post; that was the point. The only reason I quoted so much is because you were ignoring what has already been written. You are left wondering for one of two reasons: either your mental handicap prevents you from understanding or you are a big fan of "wondering." My diction and purpose were very clear. If your lack of understanding was not so repetitive, my explanations would not be either.

                    When did you invalidate the post? The point I made is companies are forced and told by Big Brother to "not discriminate" based on this or that criteria, yet everything we do is discriminatory, discrimination is a natural thing. Let's refrain from making obtuse statements, shall we?

                      Exactly my point. "Big Brother" says not to descriminate on this or that but does not necessarily prohibit the other.
