SPORT-FISHING.WEST Rules Submitted on 09 Aug 95
#1 - The topic of this message base is Sport-Fishing.It can
be the politics,and policies or about current events, it can be
whatever,but it *MUST* be about fishing,bearing in mind the *focus*
of the echo is of more on northern fisheries,both salt and freshwater.
With one exception,from the 1st of Nov to the last day of March,we
will allow open chatter on anything,as long as it pertains to the
**Outdoors**,with all further said rules still in effect.If this
option isabused the moderator(s),will cut this open period out.
This option must also be of "northern nature"and will be monitored
closely,during this period.This is an unique option,that is
experimental,so let's make it work!
Rule #2 - Debate the issues, not the person. Personal attacks, also
known as "flames", are NOT allowed within the echo (if you MUST
flame somebody, send them direct netmail instead, or just press the
NEXT_MSG key).The other option is to moderate yourself! In otherwords
agree that you both disagree and move on to another topic,when their ]
is an obvious impass of dialog from both sides.
Rule #3 - The official Language of the echo is English.
Rule #4 - Profanity is not permitted, though if the moderator is in a
good mood he may allow some MINOR stuff to slip through. If in doubt,
don't use the word.Remember that ALL ages access these echo's,so some
self discipline is in order.
Rule #5 - Sometimes people use this echo as a soapbox to air their views,
we expect all participants to take responsibility for their comments:
all users are expected to use their REAL NAMES when posting in this
echo."Handles" are not permitted.
Rule #6 - All postings must contain <smiles> :-)
Rule #7 - Please,although you may run into expert fisherfolk out in this
conference,*ALWAYS* check the rules,and never take ones comments as
the "gospel",fishing regulations can change in an instant so it is
your responsibility to know them before heading out.No one but yourself
is responsible to abide by all fishing regulations,irregardless of what
one states here.
Rule #8 - Postings of commercial nature will not be tolerated.If you
happen to be in a commercial trade with-in fisheries,we would enjoy
your comments and views.But please leave your "business" out of the echo.
Rule #9 - If you intend to "copy" an article word for word,we the
moderators insist,that proper copyright permission be granted.
You can initiate a conversation,by a **small** quoted passage,with
the author's credit attached.
Rule #10 - Enjoy yourself!
