[Steppes] YOUR MONTHLY RULES REMINDER

[Kevin Black]

Monthly remind of the Steppes Mailing list rules:

Rules:
1) Please set your screen edit width to 80 characters to keep the digest as 
small as possible and not taking up more bandwidth than needed.

2) Please be careful not to quote too much of someone's message in your 
reply. It will bounce. Quote only that which is significant.

3) If you must argue something as insignificant as some one's attitude or 
use distasteful language take it to private email. This list is for 
announcements about the Steppes.

4) Do not post private emails to this list.

5) Do not cross post from another lists unless it is Steppes business or 
Steppes news.  This is in consideration of digest users who cannot 
selectively delete messages.

6) No spams.

7) No me toos.  It's great to agree with someone but please don't clutter up 
the list with posts hat say "me too" or it's equivalent.

8) Do not send virus warnings or hoax warnings to this list.

9) Ignoring direct warnings about the above rules more than two times will 
cause removal from the list.

Other helpful hints:
Sign your emails.
Do not send attachments to the list, most will bounce.
You have a complaint about a user, email me.
The delete button is a wonderful thing.


PLEASE MAKE NOTE OF RULES NUMBERS 3, 4 and 9 (also 2 but that's just cause 
excessively long quotes are annoying).  I realize there are concerns about 
the Gulf War encampment.  If you have concerns please contact their 
excellencies directly.  Talk about it here is fine, but no more personal 
attacks or insults.  Consider this a first rule 9 warning to everyone.
