    Posting Frequency: 1st and 15th of the month.   
    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-   
      
                     Please take a minute to read these rules.   
      
    -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-   
      
    1. Do not be easily annoyed.   
      
       Count to "ten" or use netmail instead.   
      
    2. Do not be excessively annoying.   
      
       This often means the use of netmail also.  These are some items   
       which are considered as being "annoying":   
      
              Use of profanity   
              Quoting someone elses profanity   
              Non-compliance with general echo policies:   
      
       - Do NOT use handles or Aliases.   
       - No "high-end" characters in echomail. This includes ANSI color   
         codes.   
       - No "Test" messages in international areas.   
       - No BBS ads.   
       - ** Absolutely No Posting of "flame" or derogatory messages. Keep   
         these to NetMail or one of the "other nets", they WILL NOT be   
         tolerated in this Echo!   
      
    3. Keep to the topic of the conference   
      
       This is perhaps the most significant of all. Messages in the echo   
       are to relate to the "utilities" written for RemoteAccess and a   
       little on RemoteAccess itself. The term "Utilities" means (in this   
       case) programs written to work specifically for RemoteAccess, or   
       which work with RemoteAccess (amongst others), who's purpose is to   
       enhance the BBS program, in some fashion, for SysOps and  or Users.   
       If the utility cannot be used on a RemoteAccess system, then it does   
       not belong in the echo. The moderators, alone, reserve the right to   
       decide, which topics are appropriate or not.   
      
    4. Permit the Moderator(s) to moderate   
      
       Though we appreciate your concern and willingness to assist, please   
       leave the "moderating" to the moderators. We have our own "unique"   
       way of dealing with things and they aren't always noticable, but   
       they are being done.   
      
    5. Automated File Availability Announcements   
      
       Do not assume that because you see automated file announcement   
       messages that you can set your system up to start announcing also.   
       Only the heads of the file distribution networks or their designated   
       liasion may post automated file announcement messages. If you   
       believe that you should be able to post these automated messages,   
       send netmail to one of the moderators requesting permission.
