Metal Lists are for organisers, friends, customers, bands and
anyone interested in the metal or the alternative rock music scene.
You can for instance, talk about Dysfunction Club and ANY aspect
of the scene there. All messages are attributed to the author
and can be traced if abusive.
Club Promoters
& clubbers - feel free to mention and discuss Dysfunction
there..
If you
have never been on a list b4 please take a moment to read about
netiquette:
What is
Netiquette? Simply stated, it's network etiquette - that is,
the etiquette of cyberspace. And "etiquette" means
"the forms required by good breeding or prescribed by authority
to be required in social or official life." In other words,
Netiquette is a set of rules for behaving properly online. More
here: http://www.albion.com/netiquette/introduction.html
There are
a range of moderator tools to deal with anyone who disrupts
the list i.e., Unsubscribe / moderate / bans. These may be applied
on a temporary or permanent basis.
Uneccessary
posts to the whole list are a nuisance, please write directly
to the individual concerned in the case of off topic matters.
Another
bit of netiquette is for everyone NOT to repost original
messages you are replying to in full. Please snip out the non-relevant
bits.
Finally
remember, while 'fair comment,' 'freedom of speech' and 'freedom
of expression' are ok, >>>
PERSONAL ABUSE NEVER IS!
Avoid being
abusive, don't be malicious, don't repeat rumour, hearsay and
gossip, do not make threats or statements that can be construed
as threatening. Remember that in the UK these can all be construed
as HARASSMENT.
Harassment
is against the criminal law whether it is on a discussion board
or by personal email.
Anyone
receiving malicious mail has legitimate grounds to get the originating
account closed down and to have the ISP boot the offender from
its system.
Subscriptions:
If you send an email to a co-moderator asking to be subscribed
then your request will be attached to the subscription message
if possible.
Club
Email List: we may add one later, you can give in your email
addy on a club night.
Other
Useful hints and Commands:
If
you do not like receiving posts/mail from a particular individual
then set your filters, preferences or rules to send such mail
directly to your mailers trashcan.
If you
want to cut down on the amount of mail you get then make sure
your subscription is Daily Digest or No Mail / Web Only
To change
your subscription to daily digest mode, send a blank message
to: scotrock-digest@yahoogroups.com
