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.

  • To Iraq and Back

    Yeah as a few of you know im in the US Army, and i was sent to Iraq a few months back, as you can tell i made it back.

    The only really cool thing that happened was that i met Armenian Soldiers.
    The bad part? they were xxxxs to me.

    A saw a few other guys from my unit talking to them, so i went up to say hi and they wanted nothing to do with me,

    i think i may have stumbled over some armenian heheh.
    But for those who dont know, they are fighting damn good over there.

      Re: To Iraq and Back

      Im a tanker, so i did my tour in a tank. I hit 4 IEDs, didn't leave a dent.

      I got promoted a few times, made a crap load of money in combat pay, and only got wounded once.

      i cant complain.

        Have you read Thunder Run? Did Iraqis attack your tank with AKs?
        As for the Armenian soldiers, eh... don't you just love our people's love for one another?
        And you said they're fighting damn good, are they actually fighting? I thought they were non-combat?
        Stay safe.

          ArmenianKid,

          I don't know what to say, save, thank you. Thank you so much for doing what many of us wont. Glad you made it back. I'm sorry you got wounded; what happened? Also, ROTFLOLOL at the "I didn't leave a dent" statement.

          God Bless You, Kid.

            Go preach your fairytales elsewhere GI Joe. They are getting their high tech a-s-s-e-s licked all over the place by a bunch of sandal wearing rag heads over there.

            That disgusting war is an absolute failure, and was a failure even before it started. And it will get much worst before the idiots you serve with run back home in disgrace. The simple reality is that the American military is a force of evil in the world today, they are international criminals and the US has no business being over in Iraq. Now that the nation is utterly broken, criminals are stuck there and don't know what to do.

            Oh, wait a minute, what even happened to Ossama Bin Laden? Hey, everyone knows he is in Pakistan. Right? So why are there 150,000 idiots running around in the deserts of Iraq? Still looking for WMDs...? Hey, the North Koreans just launched a number of WMDs (ICBM) over the July 4th weekend. Why are we not invading North Korea, GI Joe? Oh, I almost forgot - there is no oil there and they have not threatened Israel.

            Idiots like you, who sign up to fight wars for big corporation, the oil lobby and Israel are what politicians in Washington DC dream about every night.

              Armenian Kid, way to make us proud. You da man. Glad you are safe and sound back at home. As far as some ungrateful morons that may live in the US but at every chance scream how horrible it is, just ignore them. They have personal problems that they need to figure out on their own.
              this post = teh win.

                Tell us, GI Joe, if they decided to do the same thing to Armenia....would you go over like a good little boy? I hope you don't have any innocent blood on your hands. No wonder the Armenian guys wouldn't talk to you. They have no choice, but you did.

                Anyone who cannot admit that everything the US is doing is against international law and constitutes war crimes has major issues and like I read on a forum that George Carlin said, "It's called 'The American Dream' because you have to be asleep to believe it"

                Too bad you never woke up while you were over there. Obviously you didn't or you wouldn't be here bragging.

                  Re: To Iraq and Back

                  let me address a few things here for a minute.

                  1) i made this thread to tell you guys that the Armenian soldiers there are fighting, and doing damn good. even though they are only supposed to be support.
                  2) i dont have "innocent blood" on my hands. we only fired unless fired upon. i cant speak for all units, but that is what mine did.
                  3) to the jackass who seems to be stuck in vietnam, im not a bloodthirsty killer. im a 18 year old who had no other way to get himself threw school then to join the army.
                  4)i didnt have a choice either, i joined the army i dont get to say "no" when they need me for what i signed up for. Im sure the armenians were the same way.
                  5) i wont say if i support the war or not, thats not my job
                  6) but i have heard SOMEPEOPLE say it was total ilegal and wrong. but thats just some people.
                  7) quit calling me GI joe you douchebags.
