     Rules Content:   
       ========================================================================   
                            POINTS ECHO RULES AND POLICIES   
                                Revised Mar 26, 1998   
                        English is the official echo language.   
       ========================================================================   
      
       ALL USERS WHO HAVE ACCESS TO THIS ECHO MUST READ THIS. BY POSTING   
       MESSAGES IN THE ECHO, YOU AGREE TO ACCEPT AND ABIDE BY THE RULES OF THIS   
       CONFERENCE AS HERE POSTED.   
      
       This echo is disignated only for POINTS and their BOSS Nodes.   
      
       This conference may be made available to responsible users, point nodes,   
       and full nodes (Boss nodes/SysOps).  If traffic gets too heavy, it may   
       at some future date be restricted to points and full nodes only.  This   
       is the POINTS echomail conference.  This, along with many other echomail   
       conferences, is distributed worldwide, and *somebody* has to pay the   
       phone bill. Please keep this in mind when entering messages. Keep your   
       messages brief and to the point, and do not be excessive in QUOTING the   
       contents of other messages.   
      
       Description/Topicality...   
      
       All messages posted here must consist SOLELY of helpful & informative   
       material regarding POINTS and BOSSNODES.  HELP for all topics concerning   
       POINT operation, is appropriate here including the support for specific   
       Point related software by their Authors. This is not a my point setup   
       and/or product is better than your point setup and/or product echo.  Be   
       constructive and polite.  Having said that, this echo has been a very   
       professionally handled echo, and is generally frequented by a very   
       respectable group.  FidoNet is a police state so we must post rules, but   
       the flavor of this echo is simply to be informative and have fun.   
      
       Message handling and restrictions...   
      
         1.  Messages must remain on the topic of this conference as described   
             above and in the current EchoList.   Discussion of other topics is   
             grounds for the offending person or node to be banned from this   
             conference.   
         2.  Foul or obscene language, personal invectives, and "widget wars"    
   will   
             not be tolerated.   
         3.  Encrypted, encoded or rotated messages are forbidden.   
         4.  Keep the quoted portions of your messages SHORT.  Excessive quoting   
             adds to expense and overhead.  Quote just enough to identify the   
             thread of the conversation for other users.  Use enough of the   
             original material to be sure the thread IS identified.   
         5.  Reasonable announcements for NEW or REVISED Point or related    
   software   
             by Authors is ok, as long as it does not become too frequent.   
         6.  The use of "Visible ASCII Control Characters" ie: ASCII 31 and   
             below or "High ASCII Characters" ie: ASCII 129 and above is   
             prohibited in this echo.   
         7.  Messages must originate with a real name, no alias names please.   
         8.  Gating this Echo to the internet is forbidden without Moderator   
             permission.  Garbage mail coming back into the Echo from the    
   internet   
             via your gate will result in a prompt and permanent severing of your   
             link.   
      
       Moderator Policy/Continuity...   
      
         1.  All rules violations are to be addressed ONLY by the Moderator, or   
             Co-Moderator.   
         2.  Questioning or discussion of Moderator policy in the open echo is   
             off topic, except that the Moderator reserves the right to post   
             special messages relating to such policy and rules from time to   
             time for the edification of all participants.  The Moderator will   
             listen to and consider, any suggestion or criticism sent by   
             private hub or host-routed NetMail.  If there is a subject re   
             Moderator policy that needs to be discussed it will be brought to   
             the echo by the Moderator.   
         3.  The Moderator shall have the right:   
               a. To appoint Co-Moderator(s) or Alternate Moderator(s)   
               b. To set the rules for selection of his/her replacement at any   
                  time.   
               c. The right to revise these rules at any time.   
         4.  In the event of the incapacity or unwillingness of the Moderator to   
             continue to serve, then the Co-Moderator shall have all the rights   
             ascribed to the moderator.   
      
       In compliance with FidoNet Echo Policy, the conference rules will be   
       posted no less than once per month, and nothing in these rules will   
       supersede or replace any valid FidoNet rule or policy.
