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 don't know. You seem to like closing and merging threads. Go ahead.

            Here are some of them (posts on the 'Game'):

            http://forum.armenianclub.com/showthread.php?t=6224&page=64

            http://forum.armenianclub.com/showpost.php?p=151246&postcount=2539


            The below two quotes are from the thread (Any nihilists in the house?): http://forum.armenianclub.com/showthread.php?t=6897


            ON 'HAIRSTYLES'

            Originally posted by Anahita
            Cultural relativism (in ethics), if someone subscribed fully to that idea, would argue that all morals and values are subjective. While this is an important critical thinking tool to argue against cultural imperialism, it cannot be an absolute. I believe it is true that SOME things that are debated as ethical issues are actually preferences, but not all. Some morals are universal (even if contextual). Someone who was a full cultural relativist wouldn’t be able to argue against pollution and destruction of the environment (in other countries), animal cruelty, female genital mutilation practices in Africa, infanticide, human rights, and other moral issues. To a relativist who thinks all morality is subjective, those are all preferences. I do not agree... sometimes preferences are treated as moral issues (and sometimes imposed on others.) A favorite hair style is not a moral issue. However, if someone became convinced that hair styles were morally relevant, they may try to impose the ‘correct’ hair style on others and might even do harm to those with different hair styles. Without questioning the (ethical) assumptions about hair-style values (for example), there wouldn’t be a way to decide that this really is not a moral value, but preference (that could be 'thrown out' as a legitimate 'moral' issue). These tools can help in doing just that.

            Another on that thread:
            Sometimes you are a sweetheart. Sometimes you are a just a huge Major Tom!

            Control is not convinced
            but the computer has the evidence [archived]

            4, 3, 2, 1.
            Earth below us
            drifting falling, floating weightless
            calling calling home...

            No one understands, but Major Tom sees
            --Peter Schilling, Major Tom (Coming Home)
            (and another song is ....'Ground control to major Tom'--Bowie.)




            Greg: [while Abby is dealing tarot cards] Can we just get this over with? Hit me.
            Dharma: [looks at the card] *Death*!
            Greg: Hit me again.
            Abigail Kathleen 'Abby' O'Neil: Now, Dharma, "death" doesn't always mean death. Sometimes it just means a change is coming.
            Greg: Yeah! Like a haircut.
            Dharma: [yells] I didn't dream you died in a fiery haircut!


            I'm for causing change in 'hairstyles' (that is attitudes/values), if they are morally relevant. War and peace are morally relevant. Peace is not a preference. (Thus my comments about 'shaving your head' to think like Ghandi and turning on your radio.)

            "Hairstyles and Attitudes", Timbuk 3 (from Hardest Riddle on the Net thread)
            http://www.lyricsdownload.com/timbuk-3-hairstyles-and-attitudes-lyrics.html


            Timbuk 3 sings other relevant songs... lol. I'm not a big fan of their music, but I think their lyrics (http://www.timbuk3music.com/GreetingsFrom.lyrics.html#1) can make some good points.

            (e.g., "I'm heavenly blessed and worldly wise. I'm a peeping Tom techie."--Timbuk 3)

            Again, 'I'm' sorry for painting Tom into a character in my musical to help me if he wasn't aware of that. He (and the rest of the people who I did the same with) will be thankful, I'm sure.

              A moderator is supposed to be, above all, moderate. It isn't in your character, Anon.

                  He might 'see' more clearly when the 'rain' is gone. A change in the 'weather' might help. Then he'll be able to see a rainbow I've been painting--coloring the world.

                  The Painter by Neil Young

                  The painter stood before her work
                  She looked around every where
                  She saw the pictures and she painted them
                  She picked the colors from the air

                      Is there anyway you could state a thesis or some form of ground rules for the game if you want to play?
