(Continued from part 1)
=>Cross-linking this conference with DISNEY conferences on other networks
is forbidden without the consent of the moderators.  There are excellent
DISNEY conferences on other networks, but this conference is intended for
distribution on FidoNet only.  If you see something on another network
that you think our readers would be interested in, please refer to the
next paragraph...
=>Reposting messages from other networks may only be done with the
permission of the moderators.  Most BBS' that carry the FidoNet DISNEY
conference must pay for the conference, either in dues, "rights fees", or
long distance rates.  Please respect these expenses, and keep your
reposting to a minimum.  If you see something somewhere that you wish to
share with us all, please send it in an E-Mail message to the moderators,
and we will review it.  Posting any UUencoded messages, regardless of
content, is expressly forbidden. These are of little use to the majority
of readers, and should be sent on request as E-Mail, or made available
for FREQ or ftp ONLY.
=>If you repost a message from this conference on another network, please
give proper credit where credit is due.  Credit should be acknowledged to
the FidoNet DISNEY conference, and to the author and/or the person who
originally posted the message.
=>When quoting a message, please only quote the lines you are responding
to.  It is not necessary to quote a 12 line message when you are only
responding to 2 lines...just quote what is necessary to remind the
original poster what you are replying to.  Do not include personal
hello/goodbye, "In a message to..." lines, offline mail reader
identifiers, signatures, tag lines, origin lines, and the like in your
quote.
=>Out of courtesy to others, when you post something that might be a
"spoiler" (ie. any information that might give away the plot lines of a
movie, TV show, or attraction), please place a warning at the very
beginning of your message to that effect, and place several blank lines
prior to the "spoiler" information, so that those who do not wish to see
it do not have to.
=>Please keep your tag-lines and signature files to a bare minimum,
nothing too excessive, so as not to waste the money of the system
operators who support this echo.  Please delete empty carriage returns
at the end of your messages or above/below your .sig (signature).
=>By the same token, please avoid repetition of any kind.  Since we are
all reading each other's public messages, it is not necessary to repeat
the same information in messages addressed to specific people on the
Disney echo.  State it once and move on.
=>"High ascii" (ANSI) characters are not permitted within the echo,
since it cannot fairly be assumed that the receiving system necessarily
has the capacity to display them.  Likewise, most of the users of this
conference use the English language, so please don't post messages with
text primarily in another language.  This would be incomprehensible to
the majority of our users.  This is not meant to discourage users in
non-English speaking countries from posting messages, because all who
come to this happy Disney place are welcome.
=>PLEASE DO NOT TYPE YOUR MESSAGES IN ALL CAPITAL LETTERS!  In electronic
messaging that is considered "shouting" and is hard to read.  It also
helps to put paragraph breaks in your messages occasionally to improve
readability.
=>Discussions about copying software or videos, stealing, or any other
illegal activity will not be tolerated.  Such actions are against the
basic goal of this echo and are irritating to other users.  Although it
is recognized that users need to make archival copies of their programs
(and perhaps even their videos), discussion of such here does nothing
more than encourage those whose minds might stray to lesser, dark thoughts.
=>At their discretion, the moderators have an assistant moderator which
they appoint to take their place should they become sick or away from
the echo for extended periods of time.  While the moderators are present,
the assistant is given the responsibility of helping in handling off-topic
messages and other duties helpful to the moderators.  Final decisions
shall be made by the moderator only, and all decisions of the moderatora
ARE final.
Thank you for your assistance in keeping the DISNEY conference one of the
best conferences on FidoNet!  And please feel free to E-Mail any comments,
suggestions, criticisms, or questions to us...we're here to assist you in
any way we can!
