Yes.
Please do not send html format posts to the list. Here is what your
first four lines look like to those who get the digest.

The listserv rules:
1) No attachments of any kind.
2) Treat each other with courtesy. Respect other's right to have a differing opinion, if not necessarily the opinion itself - ie no flames. Discussions and debates are okay, but take flames to direct email.
3) No vulgarity or foul language on the regular lists.
The listserv courtesies: (Like the rules, only less likely to get someone bounced off of the listserv)
1) HTML formatting: No html formatted text. This is closer to an actual rule but because Bloatlook and Bloatlook express defaults to html or rtf text, I give folks some slack.
2) Subject lines: Keep subject lines on subject. Topic drift will occur, but take a moment to check the subject line before hitting send on your reply. This includes putting in a <Spoiler> warning, putting an OT tag in, adding in the names of folks that you really want your post to be noticed by, and removing the names of those same folks once topic drift has occurred.
3) Off topic conversations: OT threads that have gone on for "too long" should also be taken off of the list. There are no hard and fast rules for what "too long" is, but one guideline is if the thread is now a direct conversation between just two people. Another warning sign would be if the thread has gotten to be circular with everyone just repeating the same thing.
4) Spoiler warnings: When discussing things that could ruin a Marshal's surprise for a player (generally items in the Marshal's section of published books, or almost anything from an adventure) put either put a Spoiler tag in the subject line or a spoiler warning with a few lines of space in the text. About five or six blank lines are sufficient - just enough space to be a visual break for folks reading.
5) Replying: When replying to a message it is not usually necessary or desired to copy the whole message and send it again. Remove those messages and signature lines that are automatically added by the listserv itself and various free email services.
6) There IS no courtesy number . . . ah let's skip it.
7) Signature lines: Be reasonable. I'm breaking this one myself - but only under the moderator account and only to provide the basic set of guidelines for the listserv.
Special moderator account stuff:
I post to the listserv under two accounts - my normal one and the moderator one. My normal postings are as darious@darious.com and are no different from anyone else's postings. When I post or send something as moderator@darious.com (notably different because of this huge signature file) it is to be considered official listserv business. If you have a difficulty with how I am doing in my job as moderator, you can always contact the listserv owner AB at afterburner@erols.com.
