    The COOKING Echo Rules   
    Updated 14 March 2021   
      
    Moderator: Sean Dennis (1:18/200 -or- sysop@outpostbbs.net)   
      
    This is the National Cooking Echo. It is a non-region specific   
    conference dedicated to all persons interested in cooking and/or food   
    related topics. The National Cooking Echo may not be gated without the   
    moderator's permission.   
      
    1. Topics may be broad but the common theme shall remain cooking. This   
    may include recipes, appliances, utensils, cookbooks, food history,   
    et cetera. The discussion of the benefits of herbs for medicinal   
    purposes is off-topic as are the benefits or recipes of any illegal   
    or controlled substances. Discussion of brewing and distilling   
    alcohol is not allowed. Discussion of consumption of alcohol for   
    which the primary purpose is other than intoxication is specifically   
    permitted.   
      
    2. Avoid excessive quoting. Try to quote just enough of the message so   
    the person you are responding to understands the reply. Try to   
    change the subject line when it no longer applies to the message.   
      
    3. The number of recipes per message should be limited to one or two   
    short recipes such that the message body is of a reasonable size.   
    The inclusion of recipes, whether or not related to the topic of   
    the message body, is not mandatory but encouraged. Please make an   
    effort to properly attribute quotations or other creative content   
    to their original or at least an intermediate source.   
      
    4. DON'T get personal! Personal attacks (flames) and profanity are   
    unwelcome in this conference and will not be tolerated.   
      
    5. No religion, theology, doctrine or biblical references are to be   
    discussed or debated. However, religious taglines are allowed   
    if they reference food or cooking. No political debates will be   
    tolerated. No racial, ethnic or religious slurs will be   
    tolerated. Headers and taglines, save for the exception above,   
    are subject to the same rules as the message body.   
      
    6. The official language of the echo is English. Please do not post   
    messages, recipes, or anything else in any other language without   
    a proper translation into English as part of the same message.   
      
    7. ONLY the moderators will address off-topic traffic or any other   
    violation of decorum or these rules.   
      
    8. Handles and/or aliases allowed if they are a normal part of your   
    BBSing. However, you must post your real first and last name at   
    the end of the body of your message if it does not appear in   
    the header. Maintain only one presence on this echo; i.e., if   
    you post with multiple names from multiple BBS accounts, make   
    sure to sign your posts as noted above.   
      
    9. As stated in rule 6, the only language of the echo is English.   
    However, there are many foreign words which are common in cooking   
    terminology. For this reason, occasional and limited use of the   
    extended character set (i.e. high ASCII) is allowed in messages and   
    recipes ONLY in appropriate context, e.g. foreign words. Degree   
    symbols and currency signs are frowned upon because of the lack   
    of a standard translation by readers used by many members. High   
    ASCII fractions are not allowed because some BBS software   
    transforms them into whole numbers.   
      
    The use of the extended character set (ASCII codes 127 and above),   
    the control characters (ASCII codes 31 and below), or ANSI escape   
    code sequences for artistic purposes is NOT allowed in messages or   
    signature blocks.   
      
    10. The Cooking Echo is a plain text echo. HTML coded text, other   
    "rich text" codes and/or inserted pictures are not allowed.   
      
    11. NO advertisements of any kind (including BBS ads) allowed, with the   
    exception of ONE advertisement of new cooking-related software is   
    allowed. You may NEVER advertise ANYTHING to sell in the echo.   
      
    12. The total number of messages per day posted by any single member   
    should be limited to 20. If you wish to post mass quantities of   
    recipes, please use the RECIPES echo for this.   
      
    13. This echo does not recognize any local or regional echomail policies   
    such as EP1. This echo originates in Zone 1 and follows Zone 1   
    policies concerning the "echolist".   
      
    14. Any change in moderators will be done by the current moderators.   
      
    15. All official moderation messages will contain wording that   
    distinguishes them from ordinary traffic.   
      
    16. The moderators may, at their sole discretion, appoint temporary   
    assistant Moderators whose action within the echo only shall   
    carry the full weight of official moderation.   
      
    17. These rules are subject to change at any time. The moderators   
    will give timely notice of such changes; their word is the   
    final authority and is not subject to question.   
      
    18. No discussion of moderation is to be done in the Echo. Any   
    discussion of moderation should be directed to the   
    moderators via netmail (preferred) or email.   
      
    Thank you for participating in the echo!
