FidoNet is a "Virtual Community" where we are all representative of the
population. Each ECHO is like a neighborhood of the virtual community.
The MEMORIES echo is _our_ neighborhood. Let's keep it a nice place to
hang out.
MEMORIES - RULES
April 1, 1998
* Indicates change effective April 1, 1998
This is the Memories Echo. It is a non-region specific conference
dedicated to all persons interested in nostalgia and trivia, with some
related chatter on subjects of interest to seniors. It's a bit like
the pot bellied stove in the old general store. Conversations usually
start with reminiscing of something from the past, but seem to lead in
many directions, which the Moderator generally tolerates so long as
it's civilized conversation and doesn't violate any of the specific
rules below. It's a group of fun to be around folks. Come on in.*
The conference is moderated by Kent Anderson, Fidonet 1:382/1201, and
Co-Moderator Bill White, 1:135/110.
* The Moderator may appoint a successor, or call an election at any
time by posting an announcement in the echo. Such announcement shall
define the rules of, time frame for ,and the names of those
responsible for monitoring and publishing the results of the election.
In the event of the death or incapacity of the Moderator, the
Co-Moderator shall have all the rights ascribed to the Moderator.
This is a Fidonet Backbone Echo, and, as such, adheres to Fidonet
regulations for echoes. The Moderator may also be reached on Internet
as kand@onr.com, or by voice line at 512-447-1284.
ECROC is not recognized in this conference.
This echo is open to everyone who complies with the following
rules:
1. Topics may be broad, but not stray too far from the purpose of
the echo and that is to share germane conversation with those
having a common interest in things past. Excessive chatter, if
not related to times past, will be considered off topic.
2. Avoid excessive quoting. It costs money to send messages, but
do quote enough so others know to what you are referring.
3. DON'T get personal! Personal attacks (Flames) and profanity are
unnecessary and unwelcome in this echo. And, keep it clean. This is
a family echo. Risque remarks and off-color taglines will cause a
Moderator response.
4. Present day religion and politics, NO!
5. Only the Moderator will address off-topic traffic.
6. NO private messages.
7. Handles or aliases allowed if part of your BBSing with the
addition of your real name at end of message.
8. No test messages, advertisments of any kind (including BBS ads)
allowed.
9. This conference may not be ported to the BIX echomail system,
Compuserve or to any other network's mail system without the
express written permission of the Moderator. Porting or gating the
echo into the Internet or to any Usenet newsgroup is expressly
forbidden.
Note: The carrying of the echoes by an Internet site is all right,
provided that any messages originating from that site, when
they appear on Fidonet, meet all Fidonet technical standards.
10. These guides are subject to change at any time. If you find a
way to be annoying, I will make a rule to cover it.
