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.

    Yes!
    I seldom find tattoos appealing. Mainly because of cheap ink they use and "washed out" colors, too intricate and detailed patterns - I'm a minimalist - and the multitude of it. The location is also important.
    But a nice pattern/scene with beautiful colors, not too small, not too large and skillfully executed on the lower back or the back of the hip or the back of the shoulder of a woman may charm me!

    I have never considered having one and it's very very unlikely that I may in the future! It's not my style. It's only a question of style!

    What if I find someone else when looking for you? My soul shivers as the idea invades my mind.

      In some cases, the same as je welry or accessories! It's a statement, and different individuals make different statements!

        I agree, if it's in the right place and with some discretion and perhaps a bit "class", a tattoo might seem appealing on someone else, but not on my body. Evar! I guess you can call me one of those "judgemental" people, but from what I have seen personally, the people that have had tattoos haven't been the brightest or the most successful.

          Yes, a statement, like a sign of rebelling. It demonstrates a defiance of authority. People who do not want to conform to the mainstream, say "Phuck you mainstream I'm gonna defy". So they get a tattoo as symbolizing their non-conformity. But in the process they themselves are conforming to non-conformity. It's that age old paradox.

            You should be staring too much at men, focus on women; they're far more pleasant and charming!
            I don't recall seeing a single male with a tasteful tatoo...or xxxelry!

            Not always! For some, it's a fashion accessory, just like xxxelry!

            Just like those all "spontaneous" and "free" ones who act exactly the same way all across the planet and across decades!

              Tattoos are for cool people. I don't have tattoos. Therefore, I'm not cool. It's a valid argument. I just learned this in Testmasters.

                If you're not cool, are you hot?

                Trick question: "Do you prefer a cool woman or a hot one?"

                  That depends, if it's summer or winter. Oh my God we are so funny with these insane word humor! How about we just get a tattoo to show how awesome, aggressive, and rebellious we are! Then maybe I can land a job as an investment banker at Morgan Stanley!

                      all cool people have tattoos
                      i dont have a tattoo
                      therefore i'm not cool


                      this sounds more correct 'cause although tattoos may be for cool people, a cool person may choose not to have one. (i'm going off of the argument you wrote)
