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.

  • Life?

    Over the years, I have thought more. I have tried to look at life from far away in-stead of inside out.



    Why has enabled me to think about life? Thoughts came to my head, why am I born? in this time period, in this family, in this body etc. why me, and what happened to me before I was born. Therefore it is hard for me to reject heaven and hell. If I reject it what happens when you die. Are you in a state of nothingness, you cannot think, cannot see, cannot feel, the thought of that makes me utterly afraid of death, just think eternal state of not having a conscious and just not existing. Therefore, I can only conclude that with the presence of heaven and hell, which is one of the deepest elements of faith that I posses in believing the Divine Liturgy of the Armenian Apostolic Church.

    The value of life. You are on the earth a set number of years, for some people long, for others short. I cannot believe how one person cannot life their life to the fullest. This is the realm of your mortal existence. By fulfilling I mean education, seeing the world, living amongst people of different cultures, success career wise, and of course a self satisfaction of your existence and your life. I therefore, every morning is a time of discovery and a time to "live" my life. Therefore, small things in life never bring down because if I still have life, I cannot be brought down. I have come to appreciate the uttermost essense of humanity, life, something we take for granted because of all the things in this world that block this appreciation. Therefore, let your mind thrive, enjoy and take advantage of every minute of your fragile life. Bad things can come and go, but life is still there, as I write these words my clock ticks, I never know when my clock will expire, who knows might be tomorrow, might be in a 100 years.

    Because when you are stripped of everything you have, and I mean everything, you still have life, and with only life, look where we haven gotten too.

    Thank you, and God bless.


    It is hard for me to write personal ideals exactly (easier to talk about it) so it might not have been as clear as it should have been.

    I enjoyed reading your thoughts on life.

    What do you see of your life, or human nature, in terms of how fear and love come into play?

      We are born essentially blanks, we are driven only by our physical needs. As we age we grow mentally. We develop choice, we develop wants. Life is a struggle of what something is and what it needs/wants to become.

      I find comfort in the thought of nothingness, I imagine it to be like utter and complete peace.
