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.

                    Friendship

                    When you gain a friend, gain him through testing,
                    and do not trust him hastily.
                    For there is a friend who is such at his own convenience,
                    but will not stand by you in your day of trouble.
                    And there is a friend who changes into an enemy,
                    and will disclose a quarrel to your disgrace.
                    And there is a friend who is a table companion,
                    but will not stand by you in your day of trouble.
                    In your prosperity he will make himself your equal,
                    and be bold with your servants;
                    but if you are brought low he will turn against you,
                    and will hide himself from your presence.

                    A faithful friend is a sturdy shelter:
                    he that has found one has found a treasure.
                    There is nothing so precious as a faithful friend,
                    and no scales can measure his excellence.
                    A faithful friend is an elixir of life;
                    and those who fear the Lord will find him.
                    Whoever fears the Lord directs his friendship aright,
                    for as he is, so is his neighbor also.

                    Sirach 6.7-17
                    You can't hold a man down without staying down with him.

                      Confucius said, "There are three sorts of friend that are profitable, and three sorts that are harmful. Friendship with the upright, with the true-to-death, and with those who have heard much is profitable. Friendship with the obsequious, friendship with those who are good at accommodating their principles, friendship with those who are clever at talk is harmful."

                      - Confucianism. Analects 16.4


                      The Master said,
                      "Life leads the thoughtful man on a path of many windings.
                      Now the course is checked, now it runs straight again.
                      Here winged thoughts may pour freely forth in words,
                      There the heavy burden of knowledge must be shut away in silence.
                      But when two people are at one in their inmost hearts,
                      They shatter even the strength of iron or of bronze.
                      And when two people understand each other in their inmost hearts,
                      Their words are sweet and strong, like the fragrance of orchids."

                      - Confucianism. I Ching, Great Commentary 1.8.6
