ADMIN: Make Your Posts Count

Greetings from Hexquarters!

As we all know, the posting volume here has been quite overwhelming
lately. A great many of us are finding it quite difficult to keep
up. In light of this, and to help improve the quality of discussions,
the Admin Team would like to give a reminder of our posting rules
and make a request:

*Make Your Posts Count.*

All posts to the list must discuss canon, be relevant to canon and 
make a canon point.  Canon is defined as the known works or words of 
JK Rowling.  Speculation on whether Rowling is a member of HPfGU and 
references to posts that she may have written should be taken over to 
our OT-Chatter list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPFGU-OTChatter .

If you find yourself posting many times per day to the list, please
practice some restraint. Do you best to limit yourself to a handful
of substantive posts each day. If your comments are not furthering
the discussion, do not make the post.

If you find yourself reading a thread and dashing off replies to
each post as you come to it, instead make note of which posts you
want to reply to and make *one* post commenting on all of them.
(This is for posts in the same thread, of course.)

For further information, please check out our posting guidelines at

Thank you for your cooperation,

Poppy Elf
for the HPfGU List Administration Team
