Subj: S.O.S. Echo Guidelines - regular repost
____________________________________________________________________________
This is the S.O.S. Echo dedicated to the petition drive to amend the FLorida
State Constitution to prohibit the use of gill nets and other entangling
nets in our nearshore and inshore waters and to prohibit the use of large
seines and food-shrimp nets nearshore and inshore.
Since this is a political issue, politics will be on-topic so long as they
regard the subject of this Echo, namely: banning the nets! Both sides may
post here but there will be some ground rules, to wit:
1. Though this is a political issue, politics must be related to the
net issues raised in the petition drive.
2. No flames [personal attacks] will be tolerated. This includes
name-calling and unsubstantiated claims. Attack the issues ONLY
and be prepared to back up your arguments/statements/claims with
verifiable facts.
3. No religion. This is a secular issue.
4. NO Private flagged messages in Echomail! Sysops please set this area
to public-only traffic. Send Private messages via Netmail!
5. Avoid excessive quoting. Don't quote an entire message for a one line
response. It costs people money to move Echomail. If you don't know
how to use the quoter on the system you use, ask your Sysop or read
the help files or refrain from quoting. Paraphrase but be accurate!
6. This Echo will last as long as the petition drive takes. It is a
grassroots effort and has no official connection to the S.O.S.
Committee based in Orlando, FL, although they have been informed
of its existence and invited to participate.
7. Allow the Moderator[s] to do any moderating required. Don't add to
the noise level by trying to correct the posts of others.
8. See Rule #1. [grin]
The traffic in this Echo is the responsibility of the person posting it. If
you have a problem with an individual, work it out in Netmail or privately.
Don't do it in here.
The past traffic from this Echo will be archived in a file called:
SOS-COMM.ECO. That file will be archived as it gets to 362K in an archive
called: S_ECHO1.ZIP - S_ECHO99.ZIP [etc.]. Files are available from this
system anytime except 0100-0130 ET and Zone 1 ZMH at 1200-9600+ HST/V32 for
FidoNet listed systems only.
All participants and Sysops are encouraged to send this Echo to any and all
Nets and Networks in FLorida who are interested. This Echo is open to anyone
who wishes to participate.
The current Moderator is Christopher Baker of FidoNet Node 1:374/14 located
in Titusville_FL_USA. Additional Moderators may be added as necessary.
Notice will be given in the Echo and the Guidelines adjusted. The Guidelines
will be posted on the 1st and 15th of every month. They are also available
in the ELRUL211 file. This Echo will be EListed as of ELIST211.
Thanks, for joining in this FLorida-wide effort to take back our heritage
and protect it from the short-time mentality of a very few!
Ban the Nets!
TTFN.
