Re[2]: Discussion: netiquette
Greetings All,
I will wade in to this topic by simply stating the simple rules I
try to follow when using e-mail:
1) in private e-mail, don't say anything you wouldn't
say to the person face to face.
2) in mailing lists, don't say anything you wouldn't
walk up to an open mike in a pub and say.
3) in Usenet Newsgroups, don't say anything you wouldn't
walk up to a mike in a football stadium and say.
4) never reply-to, discuss, or even acknowledge SPAM on-list.
Even these guide lines are wide because some people will say just
about anything, even face to face
An exception to rule 1 is flirting. I find people are much better
at flirting via e-mail than in person. Safer too, especially if you're
married like me.
Regards,
Alaric Luther luther@infodata.com
