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.

    Yah that was not quite my point. I said even when you want to buy a car you test drive a few (I hope -- don't you?). But if you were to pick a car for life, it would be kind of stupid to do it without knowing anything about the car. It's a simplification to illustrate a point. Obviously marriage is far far far more serious than picking a car.

    For the record, those who know me around here from long ago will already know this but I am quite passionate about my cars and I do literally pick them for life (until there completely fall apart or get totalled).

    Where did he say that? If you don't understand that he's saying that we don't do that with CARS and we're not even purchasing a car for life, so why would we do this with choosing a spouse, then you're really just being deliberately obtuse.

    I completely agree. A lot of the "traditional" views on sex is that hey, you have to go buy a car without getting to test drive it and also without ever having driven anything before in your life and on top of that, you are stuck with that car until the rest of your life

    ... but the car is "pure" when you do get it.

    You quoted the critical point itself... You wouldn't do that when buying a car which is far less of an important decision to make than picking a spouse. Sip wasn't saying spouses are the same as cars.

    Let me add... while you're out test driving cars, your future purchase will have been driven and rejected numerous times by other renters so there must have been problems with it.

    i see you've added some extra explanation to enlighten me

    i guess the nuance i missed is the one introduced by the "lifelong" epithet.
    the reason i missed it (and i suspect a lot of people will too) is that it is very theoretical.
    in fact it is not really accurate in this sentence.

    for there is an implicit hidden word which is "candidate"
    your statement is about a "candidate lifelong companion" which is not a spouse (yet) and might be replaced by another "candidate lifelong companion".

    candidate lifelong is not exactly lifelong.

    otherwise there would be no point in trying, would there?

    the fact one feels the need to "try" suggests one's ability for lifelong commitment is not great.
    in other societies, people would marry without knowing each other.
    marriage/love was/is a pledge.
    today people think "liking" or "feeling attracted to" is "loving".
    as a result, one day they "love", the other day, they "love" someone else and stop "loving" the previous "lifelong companion".

    It's just a way for femtards to enlighten themselves. When they reach 6, 2 (female) or 5 male, then they know they are in the danger zone.
    If anything, it's a major service to this forum.

    Or are you just going to silence me because it pisses you off. I doubt anyone on this forum identifies as a femtard, so no harm done.
    That's akin to arguing that putting "Kiwi's are tards" in your signature is not an insult because we don't have an New Zealander members.
    Please, remove it!

    Levon, change your signature please.

    Siggie, you wrote: "The analogy is an apt one because it illustrates that we wouldn't even do that with a car, so why in the world would we do that with a lifelong companion"

    we wouldn't even XXXX with a car, so why would we XXXX with a lifelong companion

    XXXX = stick with a YYYY leaking fluid, making whining noises, not starting upon ignition
    XXXX = stick with a boring YYYY when a newer "model" is available for upgrade
