Hi everyone --
Now that we're all recovered from John's April Fool's Day prank, we thought the start of a new month might be a good time to issue a few friendly reminders about posting.
1. Please remember to distinguish canon facts from beliefs, theories, etc. In posting, please make liberal use of qualifiers such as "I think," "IMO," "I believe," "I hope," etc.
2. If you disagree with someone's point, remember to do so gently.
3. Please be sure to keep your subject headings on-point; make it a habit to take a quick glance at the subject heading before you hit "send."
4. Avoid one-liner posts; they are verboten in almost all cases. If you want to post a one-liner about a particular topic, please combine it with another longer substantive post.
Of course, to refresh your memory about all our rules & suggestions, please consult the Humungous BigFile, located at:

Thanks,
Penny
