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.

  • Still Living At Home

    What are your thoughts on the subject. I know the rule of Armenians to only move out when you get married, but why? Also, girls are forbidden to move out unless they go to school out of state? WHYYYYY?

    If I wasn't so attached to my mother, I would have moved out in a heart beat. She relies on me for everything, and I can't just leave her. But, I'm 23!! I want my own independent life.

    EEK sparked an interest in the subject for me...what do you think I should do, seeing as how I'm not getting married ANYTIME SOON!

      Yea, I know. I can't do that. I seriously need to live alone though. I wish I could. God, I hate people who have the easy life!

                I moved out and I didn't go out of state to school. I just didn't want to be a commuter and boy am I glad I did it. Moving out was the best experience ever. Moving back IN, on the other hand, was a pretty hard thing to do. However, all things considered, such as the amount of time I spend not at home and the fact that as long as I spend some time every week at home with my family I can go out as long as I come back at a reasonable hour (or I can just stay over my friends' place) I rather prefer living at home. It's a great way to save money I would otherwise be throwing away on a place I'd only go to sleep at. Also, if I had my own place I would probably choose to sleep (yes, just sleep) over at my bf's place more often. Which, in turn would be bad two-fold. One, that would be a complete waste of money on my apartment I'd never be at, and two I'd end up spending way too much time with the bf, and that might not be such a great idea.... So, yeah, until I go out of state to graduate school and/or get married, I'm actually fine with living at home as long as I can get away and be with friends and no family on weekends, because mom dad sister and grandparents can get to be a bit much sometimes.

                  Oh I don't have any rules and I'm not regulated in my house by anyone. I can come and go as I please. It's just a different feeling when you're living alone. I wanna come home to a clean, empty house, created by me. Now, everyday I have to go home, clean, make sure there's dinner, if not, I have to cook...It's just getting to me.

                  Ck: You definitely shouldn't think about it. Especially if your bf has a place of his own, it's gonna be a total waste. I get what you mean..
