Hi --

Instead of the humorous Flying Ford Anglia in his hairnet & tartan
dressing gown, you get grumpy sleepless no-time-for-herself New Mom
(sorry!).  Disregarding the following will likely earn you a Howler ala'
Molly Weasley if you're not careful!

SUBJECT HEADINGS:

PLEASE do *not* send messages with a subject heading that says "Re:
Digest No. 1022."  How the heck am I supposed to know what your post is
about & whether or not I want to read it?  Please be considerate of
those of us who are picking & choosing which messages to read.

QUIZ RESULTS

Please do not list out how you did on the Which HP Character Are You
Most Like & similar quizzes on this list.  Those posts should be taken
to our OT-Chatter List.

Please also avoid one-liner ("LOL!"  "Me too") posts, posts that should
be sent directly to an individual rather than to the list as a whole and
multiple small posts that should be combined into a single post (with a
clearly labelled subject heading of course!).

If you are quoting someone else's message in your reply, please be sure
to snip off what isn't relevant in their original message to what you
are trying to comment on.  It's very annoying to scroll through tons of
quoted material from someone else's message, only to find that the
person has commented on a very small, discrete portion of the other
person's long message.

Again, I strongly urge everyone to read the Netiquette & VFAQ documents
in our Files area.  Maybe some of the not-so-new members might like a
refresher course as well?  :--)

Thanks,

Penny
