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.

    Posting worthless statistics doesn't add any more relevance or validity to your argument than having someone agree with you. It's funny how loser only singles out my supposed insults and says I am "yelling like a madman". What does that man? What is "yelling like a madman" on an internet forum? I can state the same about the local feminists. It's also funny how nunechka thanks him for agreeing with her position. Either way it changes nothing.
    Jesus Christ, you idiot! I edited her post because she was doing nothing but yelling at you!

    And Nune, a personal anecdote is not statistically relevant and doesn't refute anything that Anonymouse posted. I don't know whether or not he's right and I don't care. But your story doesn't do anything to counter it. Outlier cases do not negate statistical trends. You're an intelligent person and I'm sure you know this.

          See all the hassles you go through for being a moderator of a forum that averages a single digit amount of posts a day .

            UK Academic Staff: 15% pay gap http://www.aut.org.uk/index.cfm?articleid=741

            Women Paid Less Than Men for Work as Rabbis from: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...2004Jul30.html

            In the banking and insurance sector, for example, male pay averages approximately £18 per hour, whereas women receive just under £10.50. From: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/1488437.stm

            I found these on a quick search, I'm SURE you can find more... I didn't know it was this serious myself!

                      And if they did rule the world...

                      -Production in choclate would increase by 120 %,
                      -Malls would double...hell even triple
                      -Jelousy would replace aids
                      -Sale in Shoes would be up by 80%
                      -Telephones will require a minimum of 90 minute conversations
                      -Listning will replace TV or any other visual for that fact
                      -Sex will be up by 30 %....on the lesbian end
                      oh, yes, and they will most defenetely not think with whom to fight to get some more gas (see our president).yes and they will not try to create nuclear weapons and spend billions on improving it .
