- The keywords here are niceness & tact. If someone asks about emulators, you
- don't need to rant on about how crap you think emulators are, or how crap
- you think people-who-think-emulators-are-crap are. Either simply ignore the
- question or reply by e-mail, telling the person that they are in the wrong
- newsgroup and point them in the right direction.
-
- I moderate the danish Roleplaying echo on fidonet. Once in a while some
- newbie asks about computer-, board- or card-games. I personally don't like
- people who think those subjects has anything to do with what I define as
- real roleplaying games, but I don't let that show in my replies.
-
- In short: Don't yell "moron!" at people, but gently nudge them in the
- right direction.
-
- If anything has caused deterioration in this newsgroup it is the general
- hostility. People tend to answer the posts at an emotional high, instead of
- being calm about it. If something upsets you, wait 24 hours before
- answering, and ask youself if you still feel the same way about it.
-
-
- Just my bit for world peace. :)
