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.

  • You restate things all the time! I don't see why it's a problem this time, unless you just needed to give an excuse for not giving a serious response. (btw you were wrong again - I won't claim anything - I have made my points, and unlike you do not repeat myself)

      So you want me to restate things? Very well. For the purposes of the simple minded I shall. There is nothing wrong with repitition. Practice something over and over and pretty soon you will be good at it. It's a shame that you don't agree on that.

      You see you misunderstand the meaning of religion and belief. As the definition stated religion does not necessarily imply an institution around a diety. It can very well be a cause, or a principle, or a system of beliefs held with faith. Because humans are not perfect beings, they cannot know(science) everything. Thus to compensate for their limitations, humans exhibit a funny thing called faith/belief. Because we can never know if God exists or not, we can either believe in God, or we can not believe in God. But it is important to understand that to not believe in God is itself a belief, no matter how many times you adamantly state it is not to comfort your fragile self. You still believe that God does not exist as you cannot prove he doesn't exist. That is, in sum and substance, my point.

      • I NEVER said that I want you to. I simply said that you always do.

        I won't bother reading the rest since even this is wrong.

        I will return when there is someone interesting on.

          • You keep talking to yourself, and giving people labels. We can all label and talk until our audience loses interest. No superior logic skills there, Captain Armenia. *wink wink*

            Sorry if it sounds mean. The other way doesn't seem to be working with you.

              I haven't given people any labels. You on the other hand need to get personal to feel secure in your beliefs and thus even felt compelled to respond again. I'd say superior logic is definitely on my side.

              • That is why you feel the need to tell me and others how we feel and end your posts with laughing smilies as a way of unofficially degrading us. I highly doubt that we are the insecure ones here.

                I will not get any more personal since it seems to bother you. I respond no more than you do (and actually less), so I don't see how you think you can use that against me...although youre the one with the superior logic....right.

                  I am not degrading you. You are hallucinating. I am laffing at you becuase you are funny and predictable. You say you are done yet you keep responding. If you doubt you are the insecure ones, then why the need to justify yourself? All I stated is that to not believe is itself a form of belief, because one cannot logically prove or disprove God. You seem to have taken that a little bit too personally. Lighten up, have some tea.

                  Getting personal bothers me the least, as you know I love insults. But this is, or was, a civil discussion. If you go back and read you will see you got personal first, and once you get personal, you admit insecurity. That is the way it goes, I cannot change it.

                  • I do not see how I got any more personal than you did. I don't think this level is inapropriate for this type of discussion. (Especially for people who knew each other outside of/before said discussion)

                    I am not insecure in any belief or opinion I have expressed here. When I am insecure about such things I keep them to myself until they are well developed and secure.

                    What you see or claim to see as me justifying myself is nothing more than the act of responding to whatever you happen to say in the previous post. If you say such things that my response makes you think of insecurity or justification, then maybe you should reflect upon the things you say before anything else.

                    P.S. I am having tea right now! Wow, you're psychic!

                      If you are not insecure then you would understand that to not believe is a form of belief, not throw a fit instead my tea drinking non believer.
