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.

    Welcome, but please don't talk about homosexuals the way you are doing here.
    If I go to Armenia, I'll see it's a common belief? That's your evidence? That's what you offer to support your assertion that the majority are victims of abuse (either in prisons, the military, or at the hands of "rich pedophiles)?

    You do realize that fact isn't determined by the number of people who believe that right? It's like I'm watching the news lately with their ridiculous irrelevant polls. If 70% of people believed in the tooth fairy, it wouldn't make it any more or less real. People in history were still wrong when the majority of them believed the Earth was flat or that the sun revolved around the sun.

      Well what Gegev claims is fact but you will never find studies on it.

      This flat Earth crap was a 20th century hoax. You seem to be of the type that thinks there was no evidence of the Earth being round until man reached space and proved it. The fact is the ancient Greeks not only professed that the Earth was round but they calculated the diameter rather accurately.

        You seem to just look for anything, no matter how trivial or irrelevant to the point, that you might (mis)construe as incorrect. As if some irrelevancy that's not quite correct changes the larger point. Go right ahead, but it's not paying off today. I said the majority of people in history. Do you want to assert that at no point in history did the majority of people believe the Earth was flat? That statement, as is, is accurate. I do know a good bit of science history. I know that there were some who posited a round Earth in Ancient Greece. There were also extremely close estimates of the circumference and mass of the Earth pretty early on and without advanced instrumentation. None of that changes my point...

        The number of people who believe something does not make it more or less true. Reality is not determined by popular belief or voting.

        In Turkey, most people believe there was no genocide of Armenians. In Azerbaijan, the majority of people believe that their lands were never part of Armenia (or whatever cockamamie thing they believe). Clearly, you would not be convinced that their beliefs are accurate simply because the majority of their people subscribe to them right?

          Sure it does, you have no basis in stating that most people believed the Earth was flat when they were taught and knew it was round. Like I said, the idea of people believing that the Earth was ever flat was a 20th century myth.

          Most educated people in Turkey (those that have worldly education) know very well that there was a genocide. It's the state and the government teaching that teaches a different history so anyone that hasn't developed past a high school education probably won't advance their views any further.

            Do you believe facts are determined by the number of people who think it fact? If the answer to this question is 'no' then stop it with the contrarian disagreement for the sake of disagreeing with something and distracting from the point.

              I see you are a great scientist and you indirectly claim the opposite. And you are talking only on scientific terms.

              There are a lot of great scientists that believe in God, but you scientifically proved that it does't exist.

              Sorry but I don’t want to listen/consider you sci-entific findings/propaganda on that.

              Is there any need to prove that only insignificant part of people are born sick?

                If a tree falls down in the forest and nobody is around to see or hear it, is it still a fact? I'm disagreeing because the argument you're using makes it sound like prior to the American Empire and its minions taking over the world, majority of people believed the Earth was flat. History reveals the Church never taught a flat Earth and the bible doesn't teach a flat Earth.

                  So you have nothing to offer when I point out the illogical argument you made and so you want to take issue with me being a scientist. Got it, thanks!

                  So, you don't disagree with the point I was making, but just one of the examples I used to try to illustrate that point. Not because it doesn't support the point, but rather because it "makes it sound" a certain way. If that's your issue, then go start another thread and rant about how widespread the belief in a flat Earth was at various points in history or what the church did or didn't teach regarding the shape of the Earth.
