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.

          Come on ... the US can't be expected to win ALL the medals ... I mean especially with historically powerhouse basketball nations like Lithuania and Puerto Rico
          this post = teh win.

            Who said we were expecting that? But since there's all the fuss about USA being the capital of basketball... then I expect them to win over SOME teams.. I mean, other than Angola..

              If I were a pro basketballer in the US, there's no way in hell I'd go to play in the olympics ... it's like the same as a guy agreeing to do boxing with a woman. It's a no win situation: If he wins, he beat a girl, and if he loses, he got beaten by a girl
              this post = teh win.

                i dont know if you were being sarcastic about lithuania, but they really have been a stronghold in international competetion since about 1992 when they played with their ty-dyed jerseys...

                what is really sad is that baseball is America's pastime and they didn't even qualify

                  Haha, sour grapes, Seapahn. Hey, at least you can hope USA will beat Angola.

                  Haha at baseball. USA lost the women's 100 m final (athletics) in style today. By who else but a Belarussian (as white as white can be). Oh yes, and the women's 4 x 100 medley relay in swimming!! The Aussies kicked some American *ss. Not to mention, the whole Paul Hamm controversy.. now the only reason USA has won so many medals is that it has sent more atheletes than anyone else. haha, at least Americans can be proud of NOT winning the tr@mpoline medal!!!

                  And the only gold South Africa has was by WHITE men (swimming!).. now watch the whiny black South Africans accept the honour of those gold medals, then b*tch about the presence of white people in their country. Oh yes, did I also say that someone brought gold for Zimbabwe, and that athlete wasn't black? (gee, I guess there was discrimination in sports competitions too, because black Zimbabweans didn't win )

                  Sounds like blacks have been having a bad year, after all..

                    That's what makes this country so great. No other country in the world could support the statement that "All the athletes come with different ethnic and cultural backgrounds, but can all play under the same banner of a country" with any validity.
                    Steeler, the U.S. is a modern day Roman Empire. For the sake of argument I never stated this country was "bad", however, their wins are in no way legitimate. You can twist this around and say how “multiculturalism” is a good thing because my point has nothing to do with the pros and cons about “multiculturalism” even though I am against a multicultral society.

                    Ethnically there is no such thing as a American, so, someone that was a born in Armenia competing for the U.S. does in no way "represent" the athletic prowess of the U.S. If what your saying is true then technically everyone that has a American citizenship is a American.

                      What's so great about "all athletes with different ethnic and cultural backgrounds [playing] under the same banner of a country"? I fail to see the point.
