ALTNET
======
An Alternative Concepts Network
This network is dedicated to those who are presently trying to
discover their spiritual path in life, as well as learn more about the
path they follow and the other paths that are out there. However, the
network will not support the teachings of, or the followers of,
Satanism.
This network is concieved in the idea that its control will be
placed not only in the hands of the Network Coordinators, Hubs, and
Moderators, but in the hands of the SysOps and Users as well. The
idea behind this theory is not to let any certain person in this
network get so powerful that they loose sight of the issue which is
the sharing and studying of those paths or teachings covered by this
network.
NETWORK COORDINATOR: Mark Stilwell / Stryder / StarCastle BBS
---------------------------------------------------------------
StarCastle BBS has been in existance since March of 1993, and
joined the Echomail networks in June of 1993. Being a seekers of
their spiritual path, the SysOp and CoSysOp of StarCastle felt a need
for a network which was more friendly to newcomers and more attuned to
dealing with the numerous people that wander into the Alternative
Concept or Pagan Echoes.
REGIONAL COORDINATORS:
-----------------------
Regional Coordinators will be established for each state that
comes into the network, as well as any providences in Canada or
individual countries that may enter this network. Additional Regional
Hubs may be established as deemed necessary in the future
NETWORK ECHO COORDINATORS: (HUBS)
----------------------------------
A hub will be establish, if possible, in each city of which a
network feed is present. This person will be responsible for feeding
the network to those systems of which join the network in or around
that city.
GENERAL NETWORK RULES:
----------------------
These rules are subject to revision by vote of the network
members. As these rules are revised, they will be added, changed, or
deleted from this textfile, as well as posted in the Network
Administrative Echo (ALT_ADMIN).
1. All System which are a part of this network will carry all the
required echoes, making them available to all who are qualified for
access under the rules of that echo. This will be the HUBS
responsibility to insure that the echo is fed to the network systems.
2. With the exception of those echoes that may be considered ADULT
AREAS inside the network, each individual SysOp will be free to
establish their own policy concerning the minimum access age for the
echoes carried by this network. Those areas of which are considered
adult in nature are to be set at the minimum acceptable age allowed
under the applicable city, county, state, country, or other related
ordinances, or 18 years of age, which ever is higher.
3. Each SysOp will be responsible for complying with any orders
passed down by the network concerning the access of a user who has
been determined as offensive or unsuitable under the Network or
individual message area rules.
4. The SysOps of this network can be required by the Network
Coordinator, if so determined necessary by the members of this
network, to provide User information on anyone who has been banned or
suspended from the network. This is to prevent them from entering the
network through another system.
5. All systems are required to poll their feeds at least once every
three days. This will assure that the message traffic gets moved at a
reasonable pace, but will not break those who are calling long
distance.
6. Any system of which is found to be offline, or does not pick up
thier mail within 7 days will be determined as being down. The
Regional Coordinators or the Network Coordinator will contact the
system to determine if there is a problem. If the system cannot be
contacted, it will be removed from the network.
7. The Use of Obscene Language, or insinuations is not allowed on
this network unless otherwise stated inside the rules of an individual
message area.
8. The harassment of any member of this network, be it an Officer, a
SysOp or a User, will not be tolerated on this network. If the user
cannot interact reasonably with the others of this network, they are
not wanted on this network.
