Hi all ...
Last night I my troop had its program year "kickoff" with a covered
dish supper. Noting that the list is also picking up in activity
it is time again for the reminder of posting guidelines:
- The BEST guidelines in ALL postings is to abide by the Scouts Oath
and Promise. It is valid to discusss ideas and to disagree
but NEVER on a personal level.
- Dont quote messages when replying (if you feel you just have to, then
EDIT OUT ALL BUT WHAT IS MINIMUMLY NECESSARY)
- Use private email whenever possilbe (congratulations, welcome, etc.)
- Keep length of lines 72 characters or less
- Keep signature lines reasonable in length (4-5 lines max)
- Include your return email address on your signature line
- Keep topics limited to scouting and youth programs
- Dont use MIME or HTML (ie attach files, notes, etc)
- No commercial advertising
- Learn how to use your email software so you dont make mistakes
If you have misplaced your copy of the WELCOME file, you can get
a new one by sending email to "LISTSERV@tcu.edu" with a one line
message (no signature lines) that says "GET SCOUTS-L WELCOME".
Thanks again and have a great year!
Yours in Scouting,
Jon Eidson, Listowner Scouts-L
