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.

      Originally posted by patlajan I agree with the equal pay for equal work part completely. However, for example I see way too many female cops around. And that's equal pay for unequal work in my opinion. If the job requires certain physical capabilities I don't think we should go out of our way to create diversity. Same thing with the armed serivces.
      Who said anything about forced diversity? I said meritocracy. If the applicant has the qualifications, hire that applicant, without regard to anything but the qualifications. Do not discriminate for or against.

        the whole reason, or the main reason for woman getting equal rights hasnt been passed is because woman do not want to be drafted for war. But see, many woman who are in the forces, cannot go into battle because of not having equal rights passed, even though they are capable and want to, they have to stay behind and do other tasks, but never battle.

        its not fair, and its fair , depends what angle you look at it.

        some woman are okay with being drafted, and some arent, but they still demand to have equal pay and respect etc.

        the whole reason for the draft being put into the bill/or whatever is because they know woman wont want to be drafted, so it wont ever get passed by a majority. So they basically prevent it that way.

        if woman want to be treated equally, then they better be okay with being drafted as well.

        i dunno, we will see if this ever passes, if it does, its a wonderful thing, but at the same time it has its faults.

          The problem with that is at a certain point, in whatever industry we're talking about there is going to be a pool of eqauly qualified candidates, and then a choice will have to be made.
          Plus the "meritocracy" you're talking about will have to be enforced which makes it forced intergration. Which I'm not saying is a bad thing, but those chiks in uniform don't look like they can run down a young male suspect to me.

                    Then they won't be on the force. Gail Devers could certainly run anybody down.

                    If you have a pool of candidates who are equal in every respect - which is a little hard to believe given all of the qualities you can look for - then whoever's doing the hiring will just have to go on instinct. It's a necessarily subjective process anyway, unless you choose randomly. The choice needn't be based on gender. As it is, there are labor laws in place that enforce fair hiring standards anyway. All you have to do is remove special considerations, and if everyone is honest, you will have the system I advocate. I suppose you'll need that ERA lotus was speaking of as well.
