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.

        Ah crap, you're right. I get these little things mixed up so easily. Classic stuff, Thai.

        I still stand by what I said about Nune. If she ever manages to make a post without using all caps in at least one word, I might faint.

          ok... my mother and father came to the US, my mother was a nurse in armenia, she came here, went to get a medical assistant degree, went to work in a clinic and now she works in a hospital in the laboratory AND THAT pays more then the occasional jobs or the regular job my father has held... she gets the family health insurance, all sorts of benefits, retirement plans, etc... overall and on an hourly basis, she makes more then my dad... HOWEVER, the reason why i said mostly its because we are immigrants is BECAUSE! i have heard in my child development classes (by my professors) that IMMIGRANT WOMEN usually make more money because they are more likely to take on 2 or 3 jobs, study and get a degree rather then the men who come to the US and work in their family businesses that dont pay as much... that would the average... and the there is also the reason that my father made more money in armenia then my mom, so in a place where they both grew up and had the same opportunities, my mothers jobs paid less then my fathers... my father was an accountant/bookkeeper/Mgr, and again my mom a nurse...

          in the US, nurses get paid relatively well... and SO THATS WHY! SHEEEESH! people, should i chew for you too?
          Again Nune, my question was not based on a lack of understanding how this happened. I was wondering why you felt the need to point it out to us. As in, do you think that its important for us to know that your father made more in Armenia? Do you feel more comfortable with that? Doesnt sound like the liberal feministic Nune we all know and love. I thought it was strange and asked.

            ok loseyourname, so it was ok for thai to make the thread because he is a guy, but it wasnt ok if i had done it? there are many more men in here that are so much more aggressive, however you may think they are wrting "classic stuff" but when i do it, its a direct connection to my feminism... i guess this it why i will always continue to feel the way that i do about men... stick together guys, because if you dont we may start making more money, and becoming leaders, and becoming presidents, etc...

            thanks for that reasurrance

              armobarbi, i think you are reading too much into what i said... i am not applying any femimist thing here... i said that because its just what i had heard about immigrants in general... and no i do not care about what they did in armenia, this thread isnt about how i feel, it was about what actually happened, and no feelings toward it...

                  I think you missed what she meant again. She said your post wasn't typically feminist. She also didn't ask as much about your feelings as just asking why you shared that story with us.

                      Thank you! *bows religiously*

                      heheheeh

                      Its ok. She probably doesnt feel comfortable with this feeling as a self-proclaimed feminist/liberal. Nune, I meant no insult to you. I know what the thread is about.
