******************************************************************************
� � � � � � � � � � �RV4-List Usage Guidelines
******************************************************************************
The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the RV4-List.
You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules therein.
Failure to use the RV4-List in the manner described below may result
in the removal of the subscribers from the List.
RV4-List Policy Statement
The purpose of the RV4-List is to provide a forum of discussion for
things related to this particular discussion group. �The List's goals
are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver
high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie
among its members; and to support safe operation. �Reaching these goals
requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of
the List. �To this end, the following guidelines have been established:
�- Please keep all posts related to the List at some level. �Do not submit
� �posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long
� �lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc.
�- THINK carefully before you write. �Ask yourself if your post will be
� �relevant to everyone. �If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it.
�- Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive
� �that is growing in size at an extraordinary rate. �Try to be concise and
� �terse in your posts. �Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and
� �responses.
�- Keep your signature brief. �Please include your name, email address,
� �aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location. �A short line
� �about where you are in the building process is also nice. �Avoid
� �bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary
� �space in the archive.
�- DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is
� �easily obtainable from other widely available sources. �Consult the
� �web page or FAQ first.
�- If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of
� �your response the same as that of the original post. �This makes it
� �easy to find threads in the archive.
�- When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your
� �response. �DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the
� �reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. �The impact that
� �quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive
� �can not be overstated!
�- When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT
� �then go ahead and reply to the List. �Be aware that clicking the
� �"reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your
� �response to the original poster. �You might have to actively address
� �your response with the original poster's email address.
�- DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something
� �to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal. �"Way to go!", "I
� �agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent
� �to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large.
�- When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to
� �comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly
� �contribute something valuable.
�- Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone
� �polite and respectful. �Don't make snide comments, personally attack
� �other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously
� �controversial issue. �This will only cause a pointless debate that
� �will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing.
�- Occasional posts by vendors or individuals who are regularly
� �subscribed to a given List are considered acceptable. �Posts by
� �List members promoting their respective products or items for sale
� �should be of a friendly, informal nature, and should not resemble
� �a typical SPAM message. �The List isn't about commercialism, but
� �is about sharing information and knowledge. �This applies to
� �everyone, including those who provide products to the entire
� �community. �Informal presentation and moderation should be the
� �operatives with respect to advertising on the Lists.
