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.

    Re: Air Travel

    This is very useful info since I’ll be flying your famous United Air throughout my trip in the states.
    I am really concerned about missing my connecting flight from LA to Toronto due to having to go through immigration (they need finger prints eye scan etc) Not to mention the customs who are very anal at best of times, now after 9/11 even worse.

    Question: is it true that in America they generally overbook the flights in case someone doesn't show up? And even if you have a ticket booked/purchased they may ask you to wait for the next flight?

    I arrive at LAX 9:10am need to check out luggage and all, and check in again to fly to Toronto at 12:00pm hope I have enough time.

    Travel in Australia isn't bad at all, haven't had a bad experience yet. I did fly Aerophlot (Russian airline) in 2003 NEVER AGAIN!! Have no idea what the pilot was on, but you know as you are landing, they descend and level descend level etc for the last 35 min of the trip? Well this guy was carrying on for 4 hours. Needless to say that half the travelers were in the toilets sick. A group of Russians were drinking to their hearts content, until a fight broke out where this woman started hitting her husband and so on. Very entertaining....

      A couple years ago, a friend and I decided to go to Las Vegas to go see someone. It's about a 45 minute flight but the whole time I was sitting next to this man who thought we were going to crash and die. It was horrible I didn't know how to get him to shut up.
      That's nothing.

      When we were coming back from Canada, the captain told us we'd stop in Seattle to pick some people up, and head back to LA. About an hour later, he announced we won't be stopped. All of a sudden, we stopped. People were wondering why. So a lot of people got on in Seattle, and we noticed that we were just waiting for too long. Apparently, there was a problem. The guy next to my sister was talking to himself, saying, "I had a dream last night that the plane I was going to get on had a fuel problem, and we'd stop." I asked him what happened, and he said in the dream, he just waiting for them to fix the fuel problem, then when we took off, the plane either blew up or crashed, I don't remember what he said.

      Next, the captain announces there's a problem with the fuel and that it'll be fixed shortly. Right there, I started TRIPPING out. It some Final Destination shit. The guy next to us said, "How weird. It's gonna happen." He even talked to the captain face to face, and the captain asked him to keep the information to himself so he won't scare anybody off. Well, I was scared as hell, I even prayed.

      Turns out nothing happened, since I'm still alive. But I was scared for my life.
