Rule File for
ECHOREVIEWS
DISCLAIMER:
All messages in ECHOREVIEWS are considered to be the
personal opinions of the poster/reviewer. This echo has no
official association with the Echolist, Echolist Coord-
inator, Fidonet elected or appointed 'officials', or any
sysop distributing this echo or any echo mentioned in
ECHOREVIEWS. Persons offended by the contents of this echo
are cordially invited to respond maturely or unlink,
whichever is easier.
PURPOSE: Independent reviews of echomail conferences listed in the
Fidonet Zone 1 Echolist maintained by the Fidonet Zone 1
Echolist Coordinator @ 1:1/201.
FORMAT: All participants are required to follow a defined format as
described herein. The format is designed to provide useful
information regarding any reviewed echo and to avoid
unnecessary flames or digression from the assigned topic.
The required format for posting is as follows:
=====================================================================
SUBJECT LINE: Must contain the E-listed Echotag only.
MESSAGE BODY:
Line 1: REVIEWED BY: <YOUR NAME>
Line 2: ADHERES TO TOPIC: <YES> or <NO> or <SOMETIMES>
Line 3: MODERATOR STYLE: <MISSING> or <EASY> or <STRICT> or <ABUSIVE>
Line 4: PERSONAL RATING: <LIKE> or <DISLIKE> or <INDIFFERENT>
Line 5: REVIEW PERIOD: <## Messages> or <## Days> or <## Weeks>
Line 6: COMMENT: <not to exceed 12 80-character lines>
======================================================================
Items shown in < >'s above are valid responses. One response per line.
RESPONSES: Must include at a minimum Lines 1 through 5.
The moderators will post the above format into the echo on a weekly
basis. Please keep a copy handy for submitting your Fabulous echo
reviews.
RULES OF ENGAGEMENT:
1. Don't piss off the ECHOREVIEWS moderators. ALL Moderators are
God. And so it is written....... finally! (Ekomaelz 1:1 - King
Ralph version.)
2. If in doubt, see rule #2.
3. Failure to adhere to the required format or posted rules will
result in a moderator warning in NETMAIL.
4. A second warning will result in a voluntary 30 day suspension of
posting privileges.
5. A third warning will result in permanent revocation of posting
privileges.
6. Sysops who do not provide inbound netmail services to their users
assume full responsibility for their users' posts.
FOR EXAMPLE: User 'A' earns a warning from the moderators. A
NETMAIL is sent to the user and sysop. User 'A' does not react
appropriately. Subsequently, User 'B' from the same system earns
a warning from the moderators. Again, a NETMAIL is sent to the
user and sysop. User 'B' also does not react appropriately. The
-SYSOP- has now received -two- warnings and the entire node is
subject to a 30 day suspension in accordance with Rule 4. (The
simple solution is pay attention to your users. <g>)
7. Absolutely no abusive, profane, blasphemous, impious, immodest,
vulgar, filthy, irreverent, immoral, vile, unethical, corrupt,
perverse, risque, indecent, wicked, shameless, wanton, loose,
sinful, bawdy, lewd, lascivious, or obscene language will be
tolerated. (So sayeth the Honorable Senators who would ruleth our
speech if mayhaps they had useth _our_ thesaurus.)
8. No NETWORK, ECHO, or BBS advertisements are permitted.
9. General discussion in the echo must pertain to the original
reviews as posted. Commentary not related is discouraged. (This
is the "stay on topic" rule.)
10. Personal attacks prohibited. Let's play nice.
11. Special considerations will be granted to those posting
intelligent reviews.
11. This echo's moderators are bribable; however, since every man
has his price, be warned, our tastes are extreme. (Anybody know
Cindy Crawford's home telephone number?) (Biff can't count, BTW)
12. We needed a rule #12.
13. Baker's Dozen. (Politically correct?)
14. Rules 1, 2, and 11-14 are not enforceable. (Got that, Buzz???)
