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.

    Oh, wow, had no idea. Thanks. By the way the female version of Karen is Karine. So, what do you think is the meaning of western Karen (girl's name).
    Karen is the Scandinavian version of Catherine.

    Catherine is of Greek origin and means "pure".

    Ironically, for a "pure" name it is probably the most variable female name of all! Eg: Catherine, Katherine, Cathy, Cath, Katie, Kate, Carrie, Karen, Cat, (meow!)
    Plenipotentiary meow!

      Thanks, Siamanto for being so accurate and precize, but can I ask you what is your name? Lets see who's armo here . And since my name is from the Bible and armenians were the second nation to accept christianity, it automatically adds up 2% (according to my point of view), which makes me 99% hajuhi, ok, lets just agree on that.lol
      You're welcome, Oh Woman from Magdali!
      I assure you that my first name is not only 100% Armenian, but also 100% Christian - not only Biblical. That makes me
      100% + 5% Armenian. (If a Biblical name is worth 2%, then a Christian name is worth at least 5%! )

      By the way, since Armenia was the first nation to have accepted Christianity - not the second - then you lose 2% and you're back to 97%!

      PS. I'll give you 3% of my 105% Armenianhood, so you'll become harur dogos Hayouhi!
      What if I find someone else when looking for you? My soul shivers as the idea invades my mind.

              Dear Siamantro, first of all, Amenia was not the first, but the second one I think after Greeks and if you want to prove your point, please give me some facts . Second of all, if Armenia was the first to become christian, than I should have not 2%, but 3%, which makes me 100%, so that I dont need your 3% to be 100% lol , thanks though, it was sweet.

                  The Greeks? The Greeks are not even the second or third country to have accepted Christianity as a national faith. I don't know when they have adopted; but they come after the Ethiopians and Rome.
                  Where have you been the last couple of years when Armenians all over the World celebrated the 1700th anniversary of Christianity in Armenia, as the first Armenian Nation. Even the Pope celebrated it!

                  Warning: A third mistake would demote you to below 50%! That's final!

                    Yeah, Greek Orthodox church was basically a branch of Catholicism. Byzantium was known as the East Roman Empire so they were Catholic until they became Orthodox. They broke away from Vatican on the issue of iconoclasm and other smaller issues. Armenian Gregorian Apostolic church on the other hand was the direct result of preaching of Gregory the Illuminator who converted king Drdat (sp). We used to have many similarities and ties to Vatican, but also lost those ties because of some issues (mainly the issue of divinity/humanity split in Jesus Christ). However, we had our own church from day one.
