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.

    He was my friends English teacher at Exeter. From what I can see in emails they write eachother he's a pretty damn intelligent guy.

    You guys are so hilarious. The book is pure fiction, it was never filed in the non-fiction section unless you're going to some bookstore where the owners are stupid. Relax and read the book as it should be read, for entertainment.

          So what difference does it make what category it's under? You are affraid that the less intelligent will take the story to be fact and somehow believe in false things?

          Don't worry dude! The less intelligent have already made up their mind about another book

            i feel like poking that eye out.. and the less intelligent have judged others who have made up their mind that less intelligent people have made up their minds about a book.

            it probably takes some intelligence to figure that out..

              Gevo: I read the *Cracking the da Vinci code* by Simon Cox.Its a guide to the fact beyond the fiction ( how much of the novel is actually true and what is fictional).I may say its very informative and interesting to read.


              ps: it's a real good *sleeping pill*

                That nice... i have been meaning to read it, just not much time for it now..

                yes, the book is very informative i agree, many art history related issues, conspiracies etc tht i learned from it.. ... but,, the main allegations towards the Biblical teaching of Jesus and his real life do not hold any validity, and are prompted only by conspiracies introduced long time ago by those who despise what the Bible teaches about Jesus, and those who oppose it strongly.. as far as to say they hate what Jesus is today in the real contex of "Christianity"

                  Well, looks like Ron Howard is going to direct the movie and Tom Hanks has signed on as well. This thing is shaping up to be an excellent movie!

                      The story is fiction. But that doesn't mean everything the author says is made up

                      Either way, it's an excellent book.
                      I was watching a TV program a few days ago about Rosslyn chapel, and mention was made of how, over the last year, the place has been overrun by idiot visitors that have read this book and believed it to be true. In fact, absolutely nothing that this book says about the art and architecture of Rosslyn is true.
