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.

      It's pretty simple for Qaddafi... all he has to do is hand out more money to the people, problem solved. The population is not that big and he's got the oil tycoons up against a rock and a hard spot.

        If Gadhafi try's to flee by air, I'd say he will head south. I doubt that he will have the decency to top himself and I can easily see Gadhafi ending up like Saddam with a noose around his neck. Now that so many people have been killed in Libya, Gadhafi really hasn't got much to lose at this point.

          You must be joking! Thousands of people have been killed in Libya and Gadhafi is clearly a luntic. I honestly don't see how he can survive this.

          Gadhafi, wearing a fur cap and sunglasses, is speaking from the ramparts of the Red Castle, a historic fort, overlooking Green Square, where over 1,000 of his supporters were massed Friday evening, waving pictures of him and green flags. Anti-Gadhafi protests erupted during the day Friday, met by gunfire from pro-regime militia.

          Ghadafi, pumping his fist in the air, told the crowd to "retaliate against them, retaliate against them" and "prepare to defend the nation and defend the oil."

            You think the majority that receive food subsidies and handouts care about the thousand idiots that fell for western plots? The media in the west is putting a spin on things.... there are plenty of Qaddafi supporters. It's a charade to jack up fuel prices, nothing else.

              Do you have any worthy articles that can attest to your claims?

              BTW: I am not saying you're wrong, just want to see what you are basing things on.
              For the first time in more than 600 years, Armenia is free and independent, and we are therefore obligated
              to place our national interests ahead of our personal gains or aspirations.

                Not really, I guess time will tell if I'm right or wrong, lol.

                  In geopolitical terms the potential fall of Bahrain is of more strategic importance than Libya. However, the Libya story is easier to package and feed the sheeple.

                    Guest Column: Libyan war must be acknowledged

                    By Megan Ananian, Fourth-year accounting student
                    [email protected]

                    Massacres, genocide can be stopped by awareness, should not be ignored

                    From the 1890s to the 1920s, Turkey massacred a large percentage of the Armenian population for spreading ideas about civil rights. This spurred the first international human rights movement and the American Red Cross to embark on its first mission to aid Armenian survivors of massacres in 1896.

                    Although the public’s disapproval of these atrocities increased, the punishments for these crimes grew weaker. In 1921, the Turkish trials were abandoned while war crime prisoners were traded and freed. The U.S. needed Turkey as an ally because it was the core to oil policy in the Middle East. Baroness Caroline Cox of British Parliament responded in 1999, “If nations are allowed to commit genocide with impunity ... there is a real danger that other brutal regimes will be encouraged to attempt genocides. Unless we speak today of the Armenian genocide ... we shall leave this century of unprecedented genocides with this blot on our consciences.” The Armenian Genocide is looked at as an archetype for the genocides that ensued. Even Hitler remarked with indifference, stating, “Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?”

                    As you read this, hundreds of Libyans are dying while attempting to overthrow their dictator in the hope for democracy that has been spreading across the Middle East. The oppressive government has disconnected the people’s Internet and thrown out the media in attempts to permanently silence the movement for change. Through courageous acts of protestors, social media has exposed the atrocities in Libya. A Twitter activist @ChangeInLibya in Tripoli published, “LIBYANS ARE BEING MASSACRED RIGHT NOW.. LISTEN TO THE NEWS.. HELP US PLS HELP US.. TRIPOLI HAS 1000S OF DEATHS FOR GODS SAKE WORLD WAKE UP.” President Barack Obama finally acknowledged the violence Wednesday night, while major news outlets allowed Justin Bieber’s haircut to overshadow the selfish complaints of increasing oil prices as a result of the protests.

                    The question is quite simple: At what point are the diplomatic compromises no longer acceptable to the basic principles of man? How much genocide, in the name of religion, nationalism or race, is required before the people of this planet are willing to stand up for another man’s basic right to live? What would the world be like if nations acted from the heart instead of cloaking black and white with the “grays” of diplomacy?

                    Friends, Gamexxxx family and fellow human beings, we cannot let the Libyan voices be silenced and forgotten like the Armenians’. History does not have to repeat itself. We can’t save every life, but we can spread awareness. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.” Look beyond the triviality of your problems, and help our generation change the world for the better.
