[HPFGU-OTChatter] Admin: List Rules

[Lee Storm (God Is The Healing Force]

[Our Beloved Elf Sheryll reads from her scroll]:
| The List Elves would like to remind members of OTC that the 
| same posting
| conventions that apply on the Main list also apply here. This 
| includes 
| adding your response to a message *below* the material you're quoting 
| and playing nice with others. Please be aware that here, as on Main, 
| repeated violations of the rules and posting conventions can 
| result in 
| remoderation.
| 


[To which MD responds]:
| I know I constantly forget to do this, I have several other 
| list that I post
| on, this is the only one that requires this.
| 
| -- be cool if we could just get rid of the rule.

[Lee gasps in terror!]:
Never!!!!  If you were on the BSG-Theme list, the same conventions would
apply, and I have been known to get on people's cases for lack of
attribution, lack of signature, etc.  We've always had those rules and, when
the need arises, as co-mod I still insist upon them.  They make reading much
more orderly especially for those who used Text-To-Speech because they may
not be able to see changes in the text colors, fonts, styles, indents, etc.
These things make attributions and signatures essential!  Also, some email
programs don't show the headers of the senders which makes the sigs and
attribs even more necessary to us-types who rely on auditory reading.

Cheers,

Lee :-)
