- Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2008 14:37:27 -0500
You all agreed to the following list rules and were sent a copy when you
joined the list. So in order to start the new year off on the right foot, we
are sending them out as a REMINDER. This is not being sent because of any
particular posts sent to the list.
They are available on the list website
http://showgsd.org/rules.html
and
http://showgsd.org/posting.html
If you have a question about a post you wish to make, the admin will review it
for you.
Agreement to the following rules is a precondition to being accepted for
membership in Showgsd-l. Please review the below rules carefully:
This List is specifically geared to the furtherance and promotion of the
AKC/CKC/GSDCA/GSDCC style of conformation showing and breeding of
German Shepherd Dogs. The following are posts, either by subject or by
content, which are prohibited on Showgsd-l. Violation of this prohibition will
subject the poster to administrative action. At the discretion of the Showgsd-l
management, the action taken for violation of these rules may be a warning,
restriction on posting privileges, suspension or removal:
- Forwarding, reproduction or use in any manner of any material which
appears on Showgsd-l without the express permission of all parties to the
post and the List management is expressly forbidden.
- Personal attacks, hostile, accusatory posts, in word or in tone, are not
allowed.
- Posts concerning politics or religion. These subjects are universally
prohibited
from email lists.
- Posts which contain obscene or sexually explicit material, or which poke fun
at
gender, religious, ethnic or sexually-oriented groups.
- German vs. American promotion
- Off topic posts. This List is specifically geared to the furtherance and
promotion
of the AKC/CKC/GSDCA/GSDCC style of conformation showing and breeding of
German Shepherd Dogs. Anything which is not somehow related to
this topic is considered "off-topic" (NOTE: AFRICAM is OT)
- Advertising. Any post which is made in furtherance of a product, object or
service for sale, or for the personal benefit of any List
(NOTE: Announcing an upcoming litter is considered advertising, please annouce
your litter after it is born) member or group of List members (other than posts
having a charitable or rescue purpose), is not allowed.
- Website updates - you may include in your signature "website updated
mm/dd/yy" with the appropriate date filled in. Other than as set forth here,
posts
regarding updates to your web site are not permitted.
- Signatures - All posts should be signed with your name. Signatures may not
exceed three lines in length, and the content of the signatures must be
otherwise
compliant with these rules. They may not contain advertising,
religious or political material, German v. American promotion, etc.
- Promotion of GSDs with disqualifying faults
- "Me too" posts - these are posts which merely say "I agree", or "You are
right",
or "I feel the same way", without additional content. These add nothing to the
threads, but contribute greatly to the volume of posts, cau
sing subscribers' mailboxes to fill up quickly and overflow. Feel free to send
your supportive "me too" directly and privately to the poster if you want them
to know you agree.
- Posts which are directed at 5 people or less. These add greatly to post
volume,
causing subscribers mailboxes to fill up quickly and overflow. Please send
these
posts privately, not to the List.
- Welcomes, congratulations, condolences. These are private matters, and
should be sent privately, not to the List. They add greatly to post volume,
causing subscribers mailboxes to fill up quickly and overflow.
- Administrative matters and complaints. Send these privately to the
administrators at admin@xxxxxxxxxxx
- Announcements of intended or upcoming show entries for members dogs
is prohibited.
- Do not crosspost. The only name that should be in the TO or CC is the list,
no other lists, no non list members as this creates chaos when people hit
reply.It ccan crash teh server. YOU MAY SEND THE SAME EMAIL TO EVERY LIST
SEPARATELY
NOTE: Bragging for a dog you own, co-own or have bred is allowed. DO NOT
BRAG for OTHERS. Handlers bragging about their wins is considered advertising
The purpose of these rules is not to be restrictive, but to provide through
Showgsd-l a resource that works for all subscribers. Please understand that
they are intended to be considerate of all subscribers.
