NO ADVERTISING! This includes BBS ADS, MLM ADS, ADS for lost animals, ADS
for humanitarian appeals, ADS for lost relatives, living or dead, requests
for parts or labor, K-Mart Specials, Brown Sugar, slats, and old geezers
playing Cribbage. Don't mess with me, I mean business here.. trust me!

Don't even THINK about applying for Membership unless you are willing to
sned $127.50 for Drivelling Papers, Phunny Hats, Decoder Rings and any
other souvenirs we might dream up. And don't be surprised if you don't
RECEIVE any of the aformentioned items. We make absolutely NO CLAIMS about
our honesty here.. only that you'll regret your visit.

If you make comments to other peoples' messages, or are annoying in any
way, you are in serious danger of being drafted as the Moderator. This is a
PUBLIC ECHO. No private messages are possible, encouraged or tolerated. Any
of these words you do not understand will be painfully explained to you by
the resident dwarves.

Be it hereby known that we reserve the right to poke fun at ourselves,
Catholics, Protestants, JWs, Mormons, Jews, Muslims, homosexuals,
heterosexuals, androgenous people, asexuals, celebates, televangelists,
witches, cats, dogs, squirrels, fish, waterfowl, boars, ethnical people,
unethnical people, Gregorian Chanters, stone masons, gondaloons, bedoobies
and passflooses, or you'll be in for a spankie. Any SERIOUS discussion of
ANY kind will be met with LARGE PILES OF PIGEON {SPACK} and last year's
supply of boiled kale and lutefisk.

All things being equal, The Moderator shall reserve the power to slap you
around suddenly and for no apparent reason... just for the ugly thrill of
it. When YOU get to be Moderator, YOU can make the rules.

This is NOT the FLAME conference. Mild, gentle flames are acceptable for a
Newbie who didn't bother to read these rules before barging in without a
BARGE license. HOWEVER, blatent profanity or prolonged abuse will NOT be
tolerated under any circumstances. If you MUST blow off steam, USE NETMAIL,
or Lou Dripkin will teach you the EWE DANCE.

For heaven's sake, don't spout off about your political observations.
Nobody cares, least of all ME. There are 900+ other places in FidoNet to go
for that, which shall all remain nameless. If you persist in this kind of
behavior, we will send our cousins (Nunzio and Guido, the Jewish
Flatulators) over to your house to perform rhinoplasty on your goiter, or
some other such disgusting and equally rewarding tripe. We mean BUSINESS
here.

Okay, Phil, this one's for you. NO PUFTAS! (A concession to Phil Harris
from Andy Peed; a tradition)
