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.

  • Turkey out of World Cup 2006

    The Mighty Turks have been eliminated from the next world cup tournament by the Swiss. In an exciting 4-2 win the turks lost on the aggragate score and away goal rules.

    The powerhouse Turks who finished third in the last WC failed to qualify.

    Enormous upset for the Swiss. And the actions of the Turkish fans and players after the loss showed how big of a defeat this was.

    Good night Turkey see you in Euro 2008.

      Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable.

              FIFA considers 2010 World Cup ban for Turkey

              Thursday, November 17, 2005 Posted at 1:33 PM EST

              Associated Press

              Zurich — Turkey could be banned by FIFA from the 2010 World Cup for its part in a fight after a playoff match against Switzerland in Istanbul.

              "We will act tough," Sepp Blatter, president of world soccer's governing body, said Thursday. "The catalogue of sanctions extends from a simple warning to suspension of the federation, which could mean exclusion from the next international event."

              The teams tied 4-4 on aggregate Wednesday, but the Swiss advanced to next year's World Cup in Germany on away goals.

              After the final whistle, the teams raced from the field and there was scuffle between players in the tunnel on the way to the locker-room.

              Blatter said FIFA's disciplinary committee will decide on sanctions by Dec. 9, the date of the draw for the 2006 World Cup in Germany.

              "In the truest sense of the word, fair play was xxxxxled underfoot," Blatter said at a news conference. "This is unworthy of football. Football should promote understanding among peoples. This didn't happen here."

              Blatter, who is Swiss, later indicated that lesser sanctions might be possible against the Swiss if the committee finds there was misbehaviour in an earlier match in Switzerland.

              "If we're going to be penalized, we'll work to be sure that Switzerland gets the same penalty," Turkish federation president Levent Bicakci said.

              Swiss defender Stephane Grichting was hurt in the brawl Wednesday and hospitalized with a groin injury, the Swiss Football Association said.

              Some of the violence was caught by television cameras.

              Swiss player Benjamin Huggel is seen kicking Turkish trainer Mehmet Ozdilek in the back of the legs. Turkey's Alpay Ozalan tried to kick Huggel in retaliation but made contact with another Swiss player. Huggel then grabbed Alpay around the neck and fell to the ground, with other players, coaches and security guards piling on.

              "It was unbelievable," Swiss midfielder Raphael Wicky said on the website of his German club, Hamburger SV. "Turkish players and security guards started hitting us. I was hit on the head and the back."

              But he said Hamit and Halil Altintop, Turkish brothers who also play in Germany, came to his rescue and protected him from their teammates until he got to the dressing room.

              Blatter said FIFA would consider a range of severe sanctions against Turkey.

              "Anything can happen — from nothing at all to the suspension of the Turkish federation or even a ban on participation in the next World Cup," he told a Swiss radio interviewer earlier.

              Turkish soccer officials accused Blatter of being biased.

              "Blatter's comments were extremely unfortunate," federation vice-president Sekip Mosturoglu said. "This was not a one-sided event."

              Blatter said FIFA would await the report from the match officials in Istanbul.

              "What disturbs me the most is the lack of respect shown the official Swiss delegation from their arrival until their departure," he said.

              The Swiss said they were subjected to hostile treatment, including being held up for several hours in passport control when they arrived in Istanbul on Monday. Fans taunted the players and reportedly threw eggs and rocks at the team bus as it left the airport.

              Blatter criticized FIFA representatives for not being at the airport for the Swiss team's arrival.

              "This is incomprehensible," he said. "At least they could have given psychological support."

              Tensions had been mounting since the first match on Saturday in Bern, which the Swiss won 2-0. The Turkish team complained of poor treatment. Turkey coach Fatih Terim said Swiss striker Alex Frei cursed at him and made an obscene hand gesture after the first match. Frei denied it.

              FIFA spokesman Andreas Herren said there had been previous problems with Turkish fans during the qualifying rounds. FIFA imposed a 10,000 Swiss franc ($8,900 Cdn) fine after a match against Ukraine, 20,000 francs ($18,000 Cdn) and a warning after the Greece match and a warning following the Danish match.

                Siamanto, are you working as the Turkey correspondent of an Armenian Magazine, or you are so bored of your life, couldn't find a boyfriend and devote yourself to everything related with Turkey?
