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.

    So pretty much you look at the Genocide issue logically, but then when we say the reasons why we bring up the Genocide issue you get angry and say we don't have the power to make you change. We just want you to admit what you did. And give us some of our old land back with our old churches on it. Like Ani and Van.

    "So instead of trying to insult a person like me who is looking for a solution on your side, be a mature person, face with the reality and contribute for a solution, not for stupid revenge dreams."

    Here's a good solution. Admit what you did, instead of saying you won't because we can't make you, and I'm sure we can normalize relations.

    "face with the reality" you say, I'm facing it. Turkey should face it.
    I am here to understand what you claim, what is the story seen from your side. And I have an advice if you regard. "Admit genocide, give us land" doesn't help you at your fight but show you bad.
    "To admit genocide" is not that much simple issue as I stated above. We must talk mutually to understand each other. And then if there is a genocide Turks shall admit for sure. This argument between Turks and Armenians are the fight of blinds in this way. Instead of politizising the issue we must able to communicate to find a solution.
    Demanding land is the hardest part to do. I don't think that it is a serious option. Because there are people living there now. And there were Turks living those lands at 1914, too. You may have historical monuments, villages, etc. but this doesn't mean that those lands were totally yours. Armenians were even not a majority at eastern anatolia. I respect your demand of returning to your cities, villages (if you have a desire so) But exiling Turks and settling Armenians, giving those lands are just impossible, unlogical and unjustice. Turks have people settles at eastern anatolia, Turks have monuments dated 1000 years ago at those lands. This is our common home, not only yours. The solution should be alowing Armenians to come their homes, maybe with a compensation. I honestly don't find another solution. If you have a LOGİCAL one, please state.

      There is nothing to discuss. We have already been over it all. Turkey either recognizes its own history and lives as a dignified nation, or continues in its nationalistically fascist lies and remains a retarted nation. You choose.

      As for Armenia, don't you worry. Time will tell who will survive and who won't.
      yes, there is nothing to discuss with you since you are a child.

        nairi, I appreciate your sense of humor! What "highness?" How can the word "highness" occurs to you when addressing lower forms of morality and intelligence? Those Central Asian Bazaar Crooks have been shamelessly begging for help and money for over a century now. In return, assuming the role of watchdogs, the role of professional criminals of the West. For the last four decades, they've been shamelessly begging for EU membership, despite the many rejections. The word is "yusuz." not "highness" would be more appropriate. I understand that you have used the word with sarcasm; but, please have some respect for virtues and human decency! Thanks.

        The same sense humor! *urks as a dignified nation!!!! What a contradictio in adjecto! LOL! Thank you for the joke! The day Jurks will become a dignified nation, they will cease to be *urks.



        I'm curious, what will be your next joke?


        Note: I have chosen to auto censor the words "*urk" or "*urkish" because it is commonly perceived as unpleasant and offending, evokes unpleasant emotions and imagery and is pregnant with immoral and evil connotations!
        What if I find someone else when looking for you? My soul shivers as the idea invades my mind.

          The policy of forced evacuation of villages continued long after 1992-93, and probably reached its height in the mid to late 1990s.

              Shan dzak, the genocide has been proven time and time again. If you're too blind to see the results, don't blame the rest of us who have a very fine sight. Now get lost.

              Siamanto, as much as you would like me to be, I'm not a racist.

                    nairi,
                    Since when stating the facts and calling a cat a cat is a sign of racism? Are you insinuating that calling a crook "crook" and an imbecile "imbecile" is an act of racism?
                    Did Political Correctness - the latest incarnation of blind folds - emprisoned your mind and dulled your common sense and judgement to the point of shuting you up?
                    What if I find someone else when looking for you? My soul shivers as the idea invades my mind.

                      Will people please stop calling me PC and a tree-hugger when I say that I know a number of Turks personally who are more humane and civilized than the average leather-jacketed, cross-wearing, wannabe maffioso Armenian in Glendale?? Yes, I do believe that Turkey may become civilized, even more so than corrupt, maffia-run Armenia, after it recognizes the genocide. Got a problem with that? Bite me.
