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.

    Old Armos Jay-Walking

    What the hell's up with this? I saw 2 of them just today. One man was crossing the intersection while it was green for me. Then he just curves into the street I'm going to turn right into and pisses me off even more (although it was his right-of-way this time). Then, I saw a woman crossing a 4-lane street nowhere near a crosswalk. I'm surprised I didn't honk at these morons or even worse, curse 'em out. I kind of regret not doing so but I feel bad for old people. Has anyone else noticed this? I was telling my mom about it and she's like "that's why one gets run over just about every week" and it seems to be true.

      They do it here too!! And they often get run over.... Yes, I feel bad for them, but..... if they're old and can't see or understand the pedestrian signs, maybe they shouldn't go out alone.... ><

        This occurs alot on Glenoaks, and hogg your mom is right about them getting run over. You hear it on the news every couple of months. What's worse is at night, they are jay-walking across the dark streets and since most of them wear dark color clothing it's impossible to see them.

          So what happens to someone if they accidentally run a pedestrian over because it was impossible to avoid hitting them?

            Well, if you stick around and the cops come, you'll probably get charged... and who knows, get your license taken away from you for years... i don't know for sure...

                Yes, most probably. They get right-of-way. I don't think you're supposed to move your car even if you see a pedestrian crossing while your light is green. And if you hit her, it's your fault, I believe. If it's at night and you don't see her, you might be blamed for not having strong lights on your car. Or maybe deteriorating vision.
