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.

    P.S. Killing one to save 10 other lives will always be more reasonable and ethical. (this must be from months ago...)
    Killing one to save ten is still killing, and doesn't make it any more ethical, but Communists never felt justifed to explain murder any more than criminals did, and you seem to agree. Now go and dream of a Communist utopia and don't forget your hot pockets in the microwave.

        Hot pockets are okay.

          Yes, it's right, if you believe in murder and forcing individuals against their will. So long as you agree that when the time comes and your life and property are taken, you don't object because it's for the "greater good". Governments always say "greater good".

            I am a normal contributing member of society. It is for the greater good to have me. I am not an antisocial. If I ever become one, I will want to be locked up.

              What makes you think that this man isn't a normal contributing member of society? Do you know him personally? The only thing you know is what the media tells you, that he got rough with animals in his back yard. Hell, as a kid I got a cat by the tail and spun it around and threw it. Oh no animal cruelty! Woe is me. You assume further that because this man was playing rough with animals he is anti-social. Let go of your preconceived prejudices. Like utilitarians, you assume that the everyone has the same interest in mind, "the happiness for everyone", another unfounded assumption.

                Playing rough? I saw boys play rough with animals as a child. I didnt find them antisocial. There is a difference.

                It is clear that such treatment is done with malice and a desire to inflict pain. That is not the same as playing rough. That is torture. Anyone who tortures anyone (including animals) is a psychopath/sociopath. Ask any professional. Psychopaths/sociopaths are antisocial (against society). Anyone who is against society should not be a member.

                  "Ask any professional". And what are professionals but the modern gods you rely on for your 'answers'? The point is, you don't know anything about him, except one aspect the news reported which we don't even have a source as catwoman usually doesn't source.

                  If anything, perhaps he is 78 and senile, but that still doesn't mean animals have "rights". And if it is in his yard, he has a right to do what he wants within his property. I don't condone it, but then again I don't believe animals have rights.

                    Why are you talking about animal "rights"??? That has NOTHING to do with my point.

                    I do not care what he does on his own property. I care about what it suggests he could do outside.

                    If this same man goes out and rapes and kills a little girl, I will feel like it could have been prevented, wont you??? Is his right to do what he wants on his property more important than this girls right to life??? You must see why I have a problem with this man's behavior.

                      But the point is you don't know that, and you are only assuming, as most humans do. And you know what they say, "assumptions are the mother of all phuck ups."

                      Because there is no evidence to suggest that someone who tortures squirrels will inevitably go out and rape a little girl, I would be difficult to see me agree with you. At 78 he probably can't even mastirbate, much less rape a little girl.
