� Official RaceNet(tm) Conference Rules �

�Conference Rules�
����������������;
� No Personal Attacks or insults
Please, don't go around insulting someone just because you don't agree
with them. If you feel you must argue with someone, argue the topic,
don't insult someone. Remember, that just because someone likes
something you don't, it's no reason to insult them.
� No Vulgar Language
This is a family network, so keep the dirty language out of the
messages.
Also, masking part of a word with other characters does not make it
acceptable material for posting.
� Do not behave in a disruptive fashion
� No "TEST" messages
Please do not use this conference for "test" messages, saying "This is
a
test, let me know if you get this". RN_TEST is used for that,
you don't need this one to do it in. If you see one of these, DO NOT
reply to them; as it's a further waste of bandwith.
� Don't over-quote
Don't quote a whole bunch of text just to add something like "I
agree",
or an emotion. Echomail has to be paid for by a lot of people, and
only quoting the section you must in order to get your point across
will
be appreciated by a far lot more people than you think. Please do not
quote entire messages, with origin, tear, taglines. In other words,
say more than you repeat.
� Encryption
Encryption, for any reason, is prohibited in this conference. This
also
includes UUENCODED messages. Please contact the moderator in Netmail
first before posting UUENCODED messages/files.
� Stay on-topic
All messages must ahere to the topic of the conference.
� Mind the Moderator/Conference Host
There seems to be a trend these days to just wildly disregard topics,
and
just say whatever you want. Please, try and keep on topic here, and
if
you do go off topic, you'll get a message from the Moderator.
Moderator
messages are sent via a private routed message. The Moderator
doesn't
like taking restrictive action against people, since it's a big pain
in
the butt to do things like that, but that type of action will be
taken if
you go wildly off-topic, and do not respect the wishes of the
conference
moderator/Conference Host.
� Gating the conference
It is against the rules of RaceNet(tm) to gate any conferences into
other
networks without first obtaining permission from network
administrator,
Bob Watson. He can be reached at 7223:2300/101 or [email hidden].
There is no "free speech" or "1st amendment rights" in RaceNet(tm).
RaceNet(tm) has a number of rules that apply throughout the entire network.
It is asked that all users observe these rules at all times, and to
promptly and courteously cooperate with the RaceNet(tm) Conference Host
whenever they are asked to do something. You may find an official
listing of RaceNet(tm)'s rules on your local BBS under the file name
RACENET1.ZIP.
That's pretty much it. If you have any questions or problems, send me some
Netmail. Otherwise, sit back and enjoy meeting all sorts of interesting
and
nice people. And above all, have fun.
Bob Watson
RaceNet(tm) Administrator

You don't know who is Foghorn Leghorn??? AHH!!! ;-)
He's the famous pompous and loud-mouthed rooster from the Warner Brothers
animated shorts! You just need to put that line in the character's context
hehe. I always loved the interaction between him, his son Egghead Jr. and
the weasel. Classics from the golden age of animation...

I'm a bit at a loss as to what actually puzzles you... I assume you have
seen a Foghorn Leghorn cartoon at some time? -If so, you should be able to
see the analogies between his diatribes and some of the discussions I've had
in this group.
If not, well, what can I say? -Time to brush up on your cartoon classics
