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.

    LIKE IT OR NOT such things as "having children" was worldly and commonly customary. It is for that reason that it is accepted because it serves an important purpose. If the whole world was gay, we would decrease in population because people eventually die and gays obviously cannot reproduce. That is what Anony and myself are saying that it fails to WORK. Meaning it is something centered on self-hedonistic motives that has no significance whatsoever. THE PROCESS that is (in case you tamper with my facts again).
    I'm sorry that I was such an idiot.

That is not a valid argument in this case. That is like me arguing to earn your position as a Moderator saying "but are we both not AC chatters? Big wow we have a different preference." Obviously, you will have your reasons to testify. This particular issue is not as subjective as you think. That is where I am getting at.
      You didn't answer a single question that I asked in my last post. Please do. If you do, you will have clarified everything that I wanted clarified and we can move on.

Did you only read the last paragraph of his post? Did you honestly miss the half-page he devoted to explaining why it is that you are discriminating?
        Look, let me ask this because you really should think not twice but thrice before accusing me of that. What does the term "condemn" mean? Do you know what it means?
        I'm sorry that I was such an idiot.

          Then you do condemn a heterosexual couple that chooses to not have children? Or a man that chooses to marry an infertile woman?

            All I mean by condemn is that you judge it as immoral. Now that you know that, can you now please all of the questions that have been asked of you? I swear to god that we can end this once you have. I don't want to argue with or change your mind. I only want to fully understand your position. Is that so much to ask?

              I did answer it, read carefully. I just told you your postulation is wrong because of THAT reason and I can't stress this enough.

                Are you judging all hedonistic acts as immoral, all non-functional acts as immoral, or all acts that are both hedonistic and non-functional as immoral? Just answer that one question. All you have to do is answer yes to one criterion, tell me which one that is, and answer no to the other two. This is very simple. Please do it.

                  NO that is not what it is. Wrong. To condemn means to DECLARE to be GUILTY or unfit for USE.
                  "All I mean by condemn is that you judge it as immoral."
                  Yes thank you, welcome to the world of debating. We each choose either a side or back up our points. I cannot answer your open-ended questions with just one simple "yes" or "no." I just told you BECAUSE I AM forbiding homosexuality I am giving THOSE (observe posts) reasons as to why I am.
                  I'm sorry that I was such an idiot.

                    Umm I told you I cannot just answer this sort of thing with a simple "yes" or "no." Why are you tempting me to be redundant now?

                      Are you judging any act that fits (insert criterion here) as immoral? Is not an open-ended question. It is a very simple yes or no question. Forget it though. If I can't even establish what your position is, then I can't discuss it. It isn't that important.
