SYSOPS_138 Echo Rules
Where We Came From:
SYSOPS_138 grew out of a desire for all Net 138 Sysops to have a secure
place to come and discuss any net- or computer-related topic, in an
atmosphere of cordiality and mutual respect, free from threat of personal
attack or disparagement.
Membership Requirements:
- Any nodelisted Sysop in Net 138 is eligible to read and post in this echo.
- Co-sysops will be allowed only with the moderator's advance permission.
They should identify themselves in each post so others know what board
they are associated with.
- No user access on any BBS is permitted, either read or write.
- The echo is to be hubbed ONLY by myself and the designated distribution
hubs. It is not to be sent out of Net 138 under any circumstances,
by EITHER hubs or nodes! It is also not to be sent to downlinks without
moderator permission, by either hubs OR nodes! The moderator WILL be
kept advised of any nodes receiving this echo from your system.
Discussions:
- Any net- or computer-related post is fine, as are brief personal notes, etc.
- The only other things off-topic are covered in "Rules" below.
Moderator:
I've moderated a backbone echo for some time, and have some experience deal-
ing with rules violations. However, IF ALLOWED, I plan to moderate this
echo VERY loosely. I don't plan to assert myself in any way unless forced,
and in general I will appear to be an ordinary user. In an ideal world, my
only "official" action would be to occasionally post these rules.
In my experience, this kind of echo moderation leads to mature, friendly
discussion, and that's what I want here.
Rules:
Because of my philosophy, there is only 1 Echo Rule
(But See Absolute Rules Below)
THE RULE:
Flaming of any kind is banned
That's it... no more rules. Definition: "Flaming" means personal attacks on
anyone in or out of the echo. It goes without saying that you should not use
language that may be offensive to others. Everyone here is adult enough to
define that themselves. Discussing someone's ancestry, etc. will be taken to
netmail, or we can revive 138.FLAME, whichever. But there will be NO flaming
in this echo! Violators will be dragged into the street and SHOT or,
if that doesn't work, their feed will be cut.
Because I don't cut people without extreme provocation, any hub asked to
cut a downlink will please do so immediately & without question. If you're
not up to this, please contact me now about other arrangements for hubbing.
Almost always, any feed cut will be temporary, to make a point.
Absolute Rules:
1. You will ENJOY this echo
2. You will have FUN
3. You will POST, not lurk
4. You will love the moderator
