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.

      apparently a long time ago, users were using the term Je w as an insult, so instead of reprimanding the users and going back an editing or deleting the posts like mods are supposed to, they just censored the word, putting it on par with words like phuck, and even making it a greater insult.

      Even if it was done with the best intentions, it makes us look racist,
      especially to the countless guests that come by here

          Ara that wasn't it at all.
          That might be coming off the censor list actually, I would have done it but I don't have access to that anymore. I'll see what I can do.

              I agree with Mukuch and Ara………….not only this is not right and shows anti-semitism it also alienates many xxxish friends and supporters that we have. I know some here wrongly believe that Zionism had a hand in AG (there is video somewhere in this forum that must be deleted as well) which is totally a big bulldust and btw, this plays right into the Turkish propaganda machine trying to divert their own fault and making us look racist and loose credibility in the eyes of the Western world.

                For the last time Judaism isn't a race... and referring to someone as Christian, Muslim or xxxish isn't an insult!

                  Re: The "J" word.

                  The main problem is, there are a bunch of supposed "Armenians" whose whole life revolves around that word. They wake up in the morning thinking about it, they eat breakfast thinking about it, they live it, breath it, and even go to sleep with it. Unfortunately they had started turning this forum into a dumping ground of all sorts of crap (some good, some bad, but most of it idiotic nonsense).

                  The problem is that big-time search engines pick it up and then you start getting even more idiots (or people who aren't necessarily interested in Armenian discusssions) showing up looking for that specific term. I am not saying Israel and jews and their role in the world has nothing to do with Armenia and Armenians ... but since we all know what xxx is (those of us that actually read the conversations ), I don't think it's much of a problem leaving it that way.
                  this post = teh win.

                    However, hits from google have been rising from people searching for xxx
