This seems to be on topic today, so here are the List Rules.
Subject: ADMIN - LIST RULES


You all agreed to the following list rules and were sent a copy when you joined 
the list. 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" 

- 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, causing 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.Sometimes the person is set to vacation and 
will not get it!

- 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. Sometimes the 
person is set to vacation and will not get it!

- 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. If you need a handler for a show, make the post generic.

- 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.

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 SENDING OF A PRIVATE POST TO THE LIST IS NOT ALLOWED.

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.
