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.

    Turkey still has a blockade on Armenia. Why should we encourage the economy of the country who is ruining ours?
    And, when the blockade is ended, you can open another account to say how the Armenian economy is being ruined by Turkish imports.

      the turks alone arnt killing the armenian economy. its a snow ball effect. thats only one element. but according to u the fact that armenia is landlocked has nothing to do with it.

      when history shows that land locked countrys always strugle a bit more then other countrys.

        If you truly are Steven Sim, I must say that hearing you in person is a lot more pleasant than reading your posts.

        I did not give my opinion about the possibility of opening borders. There has been no serious study to evaulate its consequences as of yet.

        However, the fact remains that THEY aer the ones qho decide to keep it closed, and THEY therefore do not deserve my money.

          I completly agree with the above. About armenian products: when I saw the armo juces "nojan" and after that found some preserves and pickles i was so happy for our economy (i mean armenian). it actually means that at least its not callapsing any more, and maybe one day life in my beloved armenia will improve.(dont think its the nearest future though)

            If the subject is so important to you that you opened an account here just to talk about it, then maybe you should have given your opinion about the opening of the border and what that could lead to. So, as soon as the border is open, it will be morally OK to purchase Turkish goods? There seem to be plenty of Armenians voicing the opinion that opening the border would be a bad thing - they are probably those who have a vested interest in maintaining a monopoly supply of expensive and badly made goods to Armenia.

            And the border will open eventually - so having Armenians examining and trying out the potentual competition might be a wise thing to do (and the only way to do that is to buy Turkish goods).

              Nations don't make products; businessmen do. If they do it well, they deserve their consumers' money. That said, the only 'products' I buy are food and books. Both are produced domestically.

                      I would appreciate that too. Nothing ever happens here for Genocide.

                      Magdalinka, since you live in NYC, it should be easy. http://www.asainc.org/newyork/ try here. I always get invitations for events in NYC from the ASA. Im a member of the National, since there is no local branch in my area.
