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.

    Survey about armenian identity

    I came upon this really cool poll online. It is only going to be open for a week or two more so i suggest that you go and fill it out now. it says it takes 20 minutes but it only took me 10. They are going to add up all the results and put them on the website and they say its a way of forging better ties and understanding between the diaspora and Armenia. go ahead.

    Yea, I really hope for the day I can move back to Armenia, preferrably when I am done with my education and have established myself in the desired field, I will move back.

    I hear that houses in Armenia are cheap for those of us here, and I know some family friends and even a few relatives who have bought homes in Armenia.

      By the way it says the survey is online until February 1, 2004, what's the point of that? Are we too late or something?

        Housing prices in Yerevan are going up up uuuuuuuuuup. Many armenians from Russia, Syria, Lebanon, yevayln buying property, and a considerable amount are moving to Armenia (information received from aunt living in Armenia (a Hayreandartz), and online logs on cilicia.com).

        So if you have the means to buy property now, DO IT! I wish I had the money.

        Prices going up in Gyumri too. Although you can still buy a beautiful house (built especially on Czar Nikolai II's request) for 5-10 thousand dollars.

          I was thinking about doing my graduate studies in Armenia, but they are yet to provide me with a good incentive to go there vs. University of Liverpool.... they don't have decent programs (except maybe for the YerPhI).... the AUA doesn't even have any grad programs in philosophy........ and besides, going to Armenia is a big commitment, largely because of the economic level compared to more developed countries and your chances of being able to get out of Armenia and re-settle in USA or Canada if you wanted to one day are really low (unless you're a professional who has considerable wealth already)...

          As for the survey, I knew about it a coupla months ago, tried to fill it out using my Mozilla browser, it wouldn't work cos it wouldn't let me choose options that were in the same column... and now I tried it with IE and it's giving me cookie headaches... Oh well...

            Eh, up to each person to choose if it's a commitment worth making.

            I will probably not study there, but I think I will move there about a year or so after I complete my university degree (Enough time to work a year full time, and make some money).

            Life in Armenia, with all its hassles, just seems to be more enjoyable.

                I'm not getting into this.

                I will say though (as I've said so many times) that the answer for Armenia is repatriation.

                    Indeed. I mean it's more of a question of "so what?" if its hard. Id rather live my life there, the hard and difficult one, than the easy one here.

                    It's funny how Armenian peoples have supposedly survived through all this dark chapters in their history, invasions and conquerors after conquerors and Ittihadists, that somehow now they cannot endure some economic hardship?

                    Well, I hate to say it but that's what happens when a country is Communist for well over half a century.

                    This is the problem of Armenia, along with Russia and the rest of the world, the transition from Feudalism to Capitalism did not take place, rather it was a direct leap to Marx's supposed next stage in history, Communism.
