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.

    Christof, may I ask you, why do you think that uh, Truman has never come close to discovering the true nature of his world until now?


    CHRISTOF:

    We accept the reality of the world with which we're presented. It's as simple as that.

      I had to compare the Truman Show to the allegory of the cave. It's pretty interesting when you look at it from that point of view. Otherwise, it's pretty depressing, and slow progressive.

      As for Fight Club. The whole movie can be considered as one great big quote.

        And I thought you were going to quote Matrix dialogue. I guess I'll do that.

        ---------------------

        Morpheus: What is real? How do you define real? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain. This is the world that you know. The world as it was at the end of the twentieth century. It exists now only as part of a neural-interactive simulation that we call the Matrix. You've been living in a dream world, Neo. This is the world as it exists today... Welcome.. to the desert.. of the real. We have only bits and pieces of information but what we know for certain is that at some point in the early twenty-first century all of mankind was united in celebration. We marveled at our own magnificence as we gave birth to AI.

        Neo: AI? You mean artificial intelligence?.

        Morpheus: A singular consciousness that spawned an entire race of machines. We don't know who struck first, us or them. But we know that it was us that scorched the sky. At the time they were dependent on solar power and it was believed that they would be unable to survive without an energy source as abundant as the sun. Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony. The human body generates more bio-electricity than a 120-volt battery and over 25,000 BTUs of body heat. Combined with a form of fusion, the machines have found all the energy they would ever need. There are fields, endless fields, where human beings are no longer born. We are grown. For the longest time I wouldn't believe it, and then I saw the fields with my own eyes. Watch them liquefy the dead so they could be fed intravenously to the living. And standing there, facing the pure horrifying precision, I came to realize the obviousness of the truth. What is the Matrix? Control.l The Matrix is a computer generated dream world built to keep us under control in order to change a human being into this.

          Crimson, I love the Truman quote. I saw the film a while ago, so I don't remember, but uh yea, that's irrelevant anyway.

          All from Fight Club:

          "Losing all hope is freedom."

          "The things you own end up owning you."

          "You are not special. You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You are the same decaying organic matter as everyone else, and we are all part of the same compost pile."

          "On a large enough time line, the survival rate for everyone will drop to zero."

          "Marla...the little scratch on the roof of your mouth that would heal if only you could stop tonguing it, but you can't." (this one cracks me up)

          "We were selling rich women their own fat asses back to them." ( love the irony)

          And I can't remember this one exactly, nor can I find it online since I'm too lazy, but it went something like this:

          - So what do you do for a living?
          - Why? So you can pretend to be interested?
          (perfect quote of how superficial most people are)

              In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

              Tony Montana: Me, I want what's coming to me.
              Manny: Oh, well... what's coming to you?
              Tony Montana: The world, Chico, and everything in it.
              -Scarface

              Don Corleone: I never wanted this for you. I worked my whole life, I don't apologize, to take care of my family. And I refused to be a fool dancing on the string held by all those big shots. I don't apologize, that's my life. But I thought that when it was your time that you would be the one to hold the strings. Senator Corleone. Governor Corleone. Somethin'.
              Michael: Another pezzonovante.
              Don Corleone: Well.. there just wasn't enough time, Michael. Wasn't enough time.
              Michael: We'll get there Pop. We'll get there.

                I agree completely on the Truman Show. I was shocked to see that no one really mentioned this perspective on the various sites and forums I had visited for the movie. Most of them think it's about the phonyness of our world, or how the media will go to no ends for ratings, and has no shame in how it goes about raising them. Some even said that it's about how the perception media creates is so powerfull, that we don't even know if the world around us (according to what we see on TV) is real, or made up anymore. While these are all valid points, I'm suprised more people didn't get into the idea of seeing outside of "your world", much like Plato's allegory.

                I agree about Figh Club, too. One of those movies where it is hard to pick out a few quotes.

                Mousy, I wouldn't know where to begin with quotes from the Matrix. Not to mention, I knew you'd be expecting that from me. BUT.....just for you, mouse....


                NEO:

                Why do my eyes hurt?

                MORPHEUS:

                You've never used them before.



                NEO:

                I can't go back, can I?

                MORPHEUS:

                No. And even if you could.....would you want to?


                (And possibly my favorite, because it describes the inability to explain what I feel/see...)

                MORPHEUS:

                Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself.

                    Guido (to his son in the concentration camp): You can lose all your points for any one of three things. One: If you cry. Two: If you ask to see your mother. Three: If you're hungry and ask for a snack! Forget it!

                    Guido: What kind of place is this? It's beautiful: Pigeons fly, women fall from the sky! I'm moving here!

                    Guido: Buongiorno, Principessa!
