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.

          I'm just a complete loss for words here. It's almost impossible for me to imagine something like that happening to someone. But, well, it did, so...

            This is very hard to believe because there were so many things she and that man could have done to help her.
            I see...

              i'm not surprised; expect the unexpected in life! i think it's murphy's law: anything that can go wrong, will; parties involved should expect charges of gross negligence brought against them; i'm surprised she survived as long as she did! she probably had deep bed sores (couch sores, more appropriately); i'm surprised she didn't lose her limbs to gangrene from lack of movement; if they couldn't get her off the couch i bet she had some deep open sores (probably down to her bones) infested with bacteria and their toxins; why she didn't die of sepsis years ago is beyond me!
              poor soul, she gave up on life long ago, now she's finally free...

                I found this image that is eerily applicable.

                  How the hell can someone sit on a couch for FIVE years? They need to shower, go to washroom and just do whatever...right? In my oppinion its not possible for both physically and mentally to sit with a certain posture for 5 years. I don't care how "down" or whatever you are...it gets boring after a few days at most. If they got a weight issue and thats preventing them from socializing and what not...then go and work out, its that simple. I'm not just saying that either, just cause people got a weight issue doesn't mean its the end of the world...go and do something about it instead of feeling sorry or whatever.

                  People giving up??? now get serious man...thats just weak. She gave up and we know what happened. She coulda done something about it, but was too lazy or whatever the case was. Matter fact people who "give up" are weak minded individuals...real weak. I'd understand if it was a tougher case....but trasforming into a couch cause of weight problems is in my oppion weak. My bad for all this, but these type of things are next to common sense. If people can stuff a twinky up their mouth then they can pull of a jumping jack or two, bottom line. I'm done.

                    I'm still trying to imagine this happening....She couldn't even get up to use the bathroom! IMAGINE THAT! I can't imagine a worse fate than not being able to take care of ones self.

                      You've never seen someone who can't move below the neck?

                      About this woman, there is obviously someone that kept feeding her if she wasn't able to get off the couch for so long. I don't think this is a case of "neglect" per se ... but it sure as hell sounds like abuse.

                      The woman can't be blamed as I am sure she was so depressed she had no will to get off the couch. What's completely incomprehensible for me is the mindset of those around her that not only allowed it to go on, they actually helped to make it possible and continue to get worse.
                      this post = teh win.
