User Agreement
To help keep our list serves and forums useful and efficient for everyone, please observe the following guidelines:
- Be sure your messages are appropriate for everyone on the list serve and forums.
- Stay on point. Don't forward Internet jokes and humor to the list serve address.
- Include a signature with your name. This makes it easier to know who said what on a long string of email messages.
- Be courteous when replying to list serve and forums messages. Do not challenge or attack other participants.
- Send personal responses, such as "thanks for the information" or "I agree", and personal comments to the appropriate individual's email address, not the entire list serve.
- Send a new message if you are introducing a new topic or train of thought. That way, readers don't have to sift through several messages to track information.
- Remember that list serve messages may be forwarded to third parties without your knowledge. We discourage this, but we do not have a way to guarantee it will not happen.
- If you wouldn't want your message read to the public, do not send it to the list serve address or post it on the forums.
- Do not post commercial messages on a list serve or forums nor distribute the list serve address to vendors.
- Do not post defamatory, profane, offensive or illegal content and messages (including disclosures) - these are strictly prohibited.
