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.

    and by the way, i agree with you, capitalism was a success, before the 20th century, after that its progressive elements were finished, and now it is no longer progressive, but reactionary for human advancement

      Originally posted by Shahumyan racism is a tool of the certain sections of politics, they are intertwined, and cant be seperated.

      As for the state economy, i dont see how this has failed, what are your parametres for failure? Do you think capitalism is a success?

      for me the parametres are employment, standard of living, security and so on
      Waiting online for 2 hours for toilet paper with a ration in your hand and then when you get there they are all out of toilet paper is a FAILURE. Waiting on a line around the block for bread is a FAILURE.

          Name a socialist state that's succeeded. Otherwise, put your money where your xxxxing mouth is and move to China.

          Do you have a job, by the way? A place to live perhaps? Do you buy consumer goods?

              No they aren't. They operate by a free market system with selected markets run by the state. Shahumyan is advocating every market be run by the state. So far as I know, even China doesn't go that far.

                I hate to say it, but you have a point. Racism is a product of individual thinking. It existed when all of humanity still roamed around in tribes, and has nothing to do with politics.

                  That is socialism. Socialism is the intermediate state between Capitalism and Communism. What Shahumyan is advocating is Communistic. Most of Europe, including France, is Socialist. Canada is as well.

                    Was cross-burning a tribal ritual?

                      Is cross-burning racism, or is it a symptom of racism? Regardless of what action may be taken in service of racism, racism itself remains a state of mind ingrained in the individualism. It may be fostered by politics and even by certain modern political systems; it is not created by them.
