NFC: List Regs
Ok, these haven't been sent in a while, so here we go. :)
Rules and Guidelines for The Native Fish Conservancy List (NFC at actwin_com)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPAM:
Spam is defined as followed: Any unwelcome commercial posting, or
multiple postings of the same materiel. (Such as posting the same message
5 times.) The following exceptions exist:
-=Relevant=- Articles (Such as RR's frequent posting of identical articles
on native fishes.)
The Trading Post, Creel, Fish Wish List, etc.: These are collective posts
of people looking for fishes. There is a section for commercial messages.
These are run by individuals on the list. Other such units should gain
approval from the list manager before posting.
Accidental repeats: Your router is lagging, and a message didn't make it
through for 8 hours. You repeated it. Both got sent. As long as its
obviously not purposeful, it won't get you in trouble.
First Offense: Warning.
Second Offense: Suspension from list for time period of administrators
discresion.
Third: Permanent removal.
Extremely offensive material may result in immediate and permanent
removal. Examples include sex or pornographic advertisements, chain
letters, and triangle/pyramid/etc. scams. These will also result in a
nice little letter sent to your servers administrator, which may result in
revocation of your account there.
SPAM sent from adresses not on the list do not go thru. However, they do
createa bounce to the list-owners private account. Any spam traced from
a false adress back to a list member will result in the above, skipping
first offense.
Bluntly, I'm sick and tired of getting a mailbox full of spam, ya'll don't
like it, I don't like it. Especially not when I've already got a ton of
it.
FLAMES:
A flame is any insulting or in/flam/atory remark. This is something
meant to intentionally anger or upset someone else. This is at the
receiving parties and/or list admin.'s discretion.
First and Second Offense: Warnings.
Third and Forth Offense:Suspension for time period of admin. discretion.
Fifth: Removal.
Watch what you say, and you won't get in trouble. Light comments will
generally be ignored.
POSTS:
Keep the material in posts relevant. Some wandering of topics is bound
to occur, and will generally be ignored. Keep the politics to a minimum.
Completely off topic posts should not be made.
General Offense: Notice to keep on topic to list.
Continued: Warnings.
Regular: Suspension.
Continued Regular: Removal.
Again, this is at discretion. Yes, its a fish list. If you have a
question about fish that is off topic: You may send it to me at
Wiegerj at paulsmiths_edu. If I can't answer it myself, I'll get it
answered, or just make up something that sounds good.
OTHER:
Harrassment by other means:
You can get a list of all members of the list by sending mail to
Majordomo at actwin_com with the command who nfc in the body. Use of this
list to spam/flame or otherwise bother list members will result in
immediate removal and/or contact to your site admin. The same goes for
just sending mail to someone whos recently posted. Messages of this
nature should be forwarded WITH HEADERS to Wiegerj at paulsmiths_edu
Sublists:
The volume of this document applies to NFC at actwin_com, the Digest
version, and all sublists.
Correcting the Admin:
The admin, me, is always right. If I say the sky is orange, its
orange. Don't argue with me. :) I'm klingon IRL and will just feed
you to the Targh. With all seriousnous, this comment
simply means that all decisions by the list administrator are final.
Final Comments:
The list has been more or less flame free, and, aside from some
bizarre situations mostly on topic. We'd like to keep it that way.
Everyone makes mistakes, and they'll generally be forgiven. As long as
you're not out to make an ass of yourself, you shouldn't get into too much
trouble.
Those of you who know me know that I'm a pretty easy going guy. As
I've said before, if you're not out to make a jerk of yourself, you'll be
allright.
