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.

    i think thats about it.
    That's about it? Dstyle you are not far from a title of a World Traveler. I envy you, traveling is very addicting and you have certainly visited a whole bunch of interesting places.

    Now about Spain, that is my first destination for now, and my long time dream, mainly due to the novels by Hemingway. Tell me what was your favorite city in Spain, what were some of your favorite things about it and how are people like? I take it hablas espanol con fluidez?

      Spain ahhh
      No i dont know spanish but i understood the people, i dont know if that makes sence, and they understood me.
      My favorite cities in order that i went to were
      Barcelona - Amazing city, great architecture and history behind it. Great beaches, and bars/clubs for partying, and amazing amount of young people.
      San Sebastion - Small town on the coast. got there on a day of a futbal match, went into a small tavern i guess, had dinner and drank with the locals, awsome.
      Ibiza - party central, but u have to be on drugs to enjoy it, alas i couldnt enjoy it that much, u know. but great beaches.
      madrid - historically its nice, but the city to me lacked any flavor. just boring.

      Seriously i love architecture and between england, france and spain i got my fair share. its like people live in history. basically like going to armenia for the first time, your eyes just pop out due to the beauty, even though nothing compares to armenia for me.

      i hope thats good

        Originally posted by Inna thankx for the welcome ....and about Georgia, i dont really remember it, just heard stories from my mom and sisters who told me about the time we went there, i think we went to the mountains there or something...i never thought of it as the way you described it..maybe one day if i ever go to Armenia, i'll go to Georgia aswell
        You'll enjoy it! Some of my favorite places there were Sochi, Pitsunda and Gagra and I vaguely remember Tbilisi. It's really breathtaking and Pitsunda is adorned with pine trees so you can imagine the scent in the air. Aaa and magnolias are like nothing I've ever seen, their smell is very potent though, but smell it long enough and you will surely get a splitting headache.

          I am getting all excited just from reading your post. Yep that is exactly how I imagined it to be!
          Regarding understanding people without knowing the language, well you certainly have special skills that I would only dream of acquiring, for I have no idea how to do it.

          Barcelona is simply my dream, it has everything I’ve ever dreamt of seeing. Gaudi’s architecture, Dali’s and Picasso’s museums have been on my list of sites to see. I’d like to visit Alhambra as well, the Moorish architecture amazes me. And talk about a combination of cafes, flamenco and a vicious bullfight that I have to see at least once in my life. Yep, Spain has everything.

          San Sebastian I heard is glorious for its Mediterranean beach beauty. I’ve been told it’s one of the most pleasant places in Spain.

          Ibiza, I wouldn’t set my foot there. There is nothing for me that South Beach and Cancun can’t offer. I simply wouldn’t waste my money to go across the world to party with a coked up bunch.

          Madrid, pretty much everyone has told me the same thing. It’s very standard like any cosmopolitan city and people are snobby.

          What about people in Spain, did you find them friendly?

            Everywhere i went people were friendly, more or less, I seriously expected more problems because we were from the US. Its wierd but they could tell in a second with us just standing there that we weren't from europe, i dont know.
            the only person that we had a problem with was in france, we got into an argument with him, and then he asked our names, and when we said it, hes like wait your armenian, were like ya, hes like ok sorry i didnt know. lol and left. that was cool.

            the people were very nice in every country, the coldest people were probs the british. but overall coudnl't be any better. the girls were nice 2 us as well.

            about ibiza, in my opinion it was highly overrated.

            Until barcelona, san sebastian was my favorite, its just the people are so different there, everyones so inviting. if you go theres this burger place called american burger, it really doesnt taste like burgers from here, but theyre very good. only place open after 3 am.
            oh and for the guys that read this, barcelona by far had the hottest girls, and they were international
