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.

    Since when does television give an accurate depiction of anything?

      I visited LA once. I loved Glendale. I hated Beverly Hills. It
      is basically a like a really wealthy ghost town. Million dollar mansions and not a sign of life, not a soul outside. Depressing as hell. Even with the many Armos living in Glendale. I wouldn't live there. Between the smog and the traffic and the materialistic way of life that southern Californians have perfected it would be a pretty miserable life. In choosing an urban environment, cities like Chicago or Boston would be tons better.

        That's what everyone says until they lived here. The weather is simply lush and perfect compared to the windy and snowy dampness of Chicago and Boston. Hence why this is the golden state.

          1. rent a car for sure. Without a car, you ain't gettin anywhere in LA.
          2. Check out 3rd street promenade in Santa Monica one day. Walk over to the peer and check out the beach there.
          3. Old Town Pasadena near Cal Tech one night
          4. Kodak Theater and the walk of fame (with all the stars) which is at the crossing of Hollywood blvd. and Highland ... definitely check this out
          5. After #4, you can drive on Sunset blvd. going west until you get to Beverly Hills ... there are a lot of night clubs and stuff there.
          6. After #5, you can swing over to Westwood and UCLA ... there is some stuff there but not much.
          7. Universal City Walk and Universal Studios are another great option.

          If you need more, I can list more so it depends on how much you are going to stay.

              I used to live in Little Armenia. Oh how I miss it. By the way, Six Flags is simply superlative.

                  Ya, I've realized I would never be a good tour guide, I haven't been to a quarter of the places people from out of LA want to see.

                  IF you're into art go to the Ghetty, amazing stuff there.

                    Well, most of the fun places are in Manhattan and in Brooklyn. I would go see a Broadway show. I would go to 42 street at night, to Soho to see all sorts of Picture galleries (mostly modern art), Central Park. Check out The Statue of Liberty, which is in New Jersey, but there is a boat taking people there. There are nice beaches in Long Island so you can go there, but chances are that you will have to take an umbrella because the weather may change in 20 minutes. Brooklyn is a good night life place, you can allways find o cool night club there. Unfortunately I never remember names, so I cant reffer to anything.
                    Note: you will be charged $1.50 a word for further references.

                      Sip's right promenade's great. There's so much talent displayed.

                      The other day someone was playing a violin with an empty 2 liter coke bottle. Imagine that! I couldn't even play half as good with an actual reed.
                      Though I think he had a recording hidden somewhere....

                      Or

                      You can take a helicopter tour and see the great landmarks of LA such as Hugh Hefner’s mansion! Truly amazing...
