Hello All. ========================================================================
 POINTS ECHO RULES AND POLICIES
 Revised 25 JAN 2022
 English is the official echo language. ========================================================================
 ALL USERS WHO HAVE ACCESS TO THIS ECHO MUST READ THIS. BY POSTING
 MESSAGES IN THE ECHO, YOU AGREE TO ACCEPT AND ABIDE BY THE RULES OF THIS CONFERENCE AS HERE POSTED.
 
 This conference may be made available to responsible users, point nodes,
 and full nodes (Boss nodes/SysOps).  If traffic gets too heavy, it may
 at some future date be restricted to points and full nodes only.  This
 is the POINTS echomail conference.  This, along with many other echomail conferences is distributed worldwide. Please keep this in mind when
 entering messages. Keep your messages brief and to the point, and do not
 be excessive in QUOTING the contents of other messages.
 
 Description/Topicality...
 All messages posted here must consist SOLELY of helpful & informative
 material regarding POINTS and BOSSNODES.  HELP for all topics concerning
 POINT operation, is appropriate here including the support for specific
 Point related software by their Authors. This is not a my point setup
 and/or product is better than your point setup and/or product echo.  Be constructive and polite.  Having said that, this echo has been a very professionally handled echo, and is generally frequented by a very
 respectable group.  FidoNet is a police state so we must post rules, but
 the flavor of this echo is simply to be informative and have fun.
 Message handling and restrictions...
 
 1.  Messages must remain on the topic of this conference as described
 above and in the current EchoList.   Discussion of other topics is
 grounds for the offending person or node to be banned from this
 conference.
 2.  Foul or obscene language, personal invectives, and "widget wars" will
 not be tolerated.
 3.  Encrypted or rotated messages and any portions thereof are forbidden. Specifically, messages or portions thereof that have been altered as to clear readability by methods such as ROT13 and any similar encrypting processes.
 4.  Keep the quoted portions of your messages SHORT.  Excessive quoting
 adds to expense and overhead.  Quote just enough to identify the thread
 of the conversation for other users.  Use enough of the original material
 to be sure the thread IS identified.
 5.  Reasonable announcements for NEW or REVISED Point or related software
 by Authors is ok, as long as it does not become too frequent.
 6.  The use of "Visible ASCII Control Characters" ie: ASCII 31 and
 below or "High ASCII Characters" ie: ASCII 129 and above is prohibited
 in this echo except for language characters that are part of someone's name, etc.
 7.  Messages must originate with a real name, no alias names please.
 8.  Gating this Echo to the internet is forbidden without Moderator
 permission.  Garbage mail coming back into the Echo from the internet
 via your gate will result in a prompt and permanent severing of your
 link.
 Moderator Policy/Continuity...
 1.  All rules violations are to be addressed ONLY by the Moderator, or Co-Moderator.
 2.  Questioning or discussion of Moderator policy in the open echo is
 off topic, except that the Moderator reserves the right to post
 special messages relating to such policy and rules from time to
 time for the edification of all participants.  The Moderator will
 listen to and consider, any suggestion or criticism sent by
 private hub or host-routed NetMail.  If there is a subject re
 Moderator policy that needs to be discussed it will be brought to
 the echo by the Moderator.
 3.  The Moderator shall have the right:
 a. To appoint Co-Moderator(s) or Alternate Moderator(s)
 b. To set the rules for selection of his/her replacement at any
 time.
 c. The right to revise these rules at any time.
 4.  In the event of the incapacity or unwillingness of the Moderator to continue to serve, then the Co-Moderator shall have all the rights
 ascribed to the moderator.
 In compliance with FidoNet Echo Policy, the conference rules will be
 posted no less than once per month, and nothing in these rules will
 supersede or replace any valid FidoNet rule or policy. ======================================================================== FidoNet International POINTS echomail conference

Hello All. ========================================================================
 POINTS ECHO RULES AND POLICIES
 Revised 25 JAN 2022
 English is the official echo language. ========================================================================
 ALL USERS WHO HAVE ACCESS TO THIS ECHO MUST READ THIS. BY POSTING
 MESSAGES IN THE ECHO, YOU AGREE TO ACCEPT AND ABIDE BY THE RULES OF THIS CONFERENCE AS HERE POSTED.
 
 This conference may be made available to responsible users, point nodes,
 and full nodes (Boss nodes/SysOps).  If traffic gets too heavy, it may
 at some future date be restricted to points and full nodes only.  This
 is the POINTS echomail conference.  This, along with many other echomail conferences is distributed worldwide. Please keep this in mind when
 entering messages. Keep your messages brief and to the point, and do not
 be excessive in QUOTING the contents of other messages.
 
 Description/Topicality...
 All messages posted here must consist SOLELY of helpful & informative
 material regarding POINTS and BOSSNODES.  HELP for all topics concerning
 POINT operation, is appropriate here including the support for specific
 Point related software by their Authors. This is not a my point setup
 and/or product is better than your point setup and/or product echo.  Be constructive and polite.  Having said that, this echo has been a very professionally handled echo, and is generally frequented by a very
 respectable group.  FidoNet is a police state so we must post rules, but
 the flavor of this echo is simply to be informative and have fun.
 Message handling and restrictions...
 
 1.  Messages must remain on the topic of this conference as described
 above and in the current EchoList.   Discussion of other topics is
 grounds for the offending person or node to be banned from this
 conference.
 2.  Foul or obscene language, personal invectives, and "widget wars" will
 not be tolerated.
 3.  Encrypted or rotated messages and any portions thereof are forbidden. Specifically, messages or portions thereof that have been altered as to clear readability by methods such as ROT13 and any similar encrypting processes.
 4.  Keep the quoted portions of your messages SHORT.  Excessive quoting
 adds to expense and overhead.  Quote just enough to identify the thread
 of the conversation for other users.  Use enough of the original material
 to be sure the thread IS identified.
 5.  Reasonable announcements for NEW or REVISED Point or related software
 by Authors is ok, as long as it does not become too frequent.
 6.  The use of "Visible ASCII Control Characters" ie: ASCII 31 and
 below or "High ASCII Characters" ie: ASCII 129 and above is prohibited
 in this echo except for language characters that are part of someone's name, etc.
 7.  Messages must originate with a real name, no alias names please.
 8.  Gating this Echo to the internet is forbidden without Moderator
 permission.  Garbage mail coming back into the Echo from the internet
 via your gate will result in a prompt and permanent severing of your
 link.
 Moderator Policy/Continuity...
 1.  All rules violations are to be addressed ONLY by the Moderator, or Co-Moderator.
 2.  Questioning or discussion of Moderator policy in the open echo is
 off topic, except that the Moderator reserves the right to post
 special messages relating to such policy and rules from time to
 time for the edification of all participants.  The Moderator will
 listen to and consider, any suggestion or criticism sent by
 private hub or host-routed NetMail.  If there is a subject re
 Moderator policy that needs to be discussed it will be brought to
 the echo by the Moderator.
 3.  The Moderator shall have the right:
 a. To appoint Co-Moderator(s) or Alternate Moderator(s)
 b. To set the rules for selection of his/her replacement at any
 time.
 c. The right to revise these rules at any time.
 4.  In the event of the incapacity or unwillingness of the Moderator to continue to serve, then the Co-Moderator shall have all the rights
 ascribed to the moderator.
 In compliance with FidoNet Echo Policy, the conference rules will be
 posted no less than once per month, and nothing in these rules will
 supersede or replace any valid FidoNet rule or policy. ======================================================================== FidoNet International POINTS echomail conference
