  Subj: RA_SUPPORT Echo Rules  
  |Conference rules for the RA_SUPPORT echo:                rev. 29 May 14  
  |Posting Frequency: 1st of the month.  
   -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-  
    
   1. This conference is available to any SYSOP who uses or is genuinely  
   interested in using RemoteAccess, the bbs software developed and  
   written by Bruce Morse, RemoteAccess Central (formerly written by  
   andrew milner, wantree development).  
    
   2. This conference may be gated to any other amateur mail networks,  
   provided that:  
    
   a) We are notified of the name of the network and gating system,  
    
   b) All messages posted here contain a valid origin line and  
   sufficient information to allow a reply via NetMail through  
   "normal" channels.  
    
   3. Any topic that relates DIRECTLY to RemoteAccess may be discussed  
   unless it has been specifically declared "off topic" by us. FLAMES  
   ARE ABSOLUTELY NOT PERMITTED, nor are "QuickBBS vs RemoteAccess" type  
   messages.  
    
   4. Third party developers are welcome to post OCCASIONAL messages about  
   their utilities provided that the utility specifically supports  
   RemoteAccess, and its interface to same. (The INTERFACE to RA is  
   topical: the actual configuring of the utility is not)  
    
   5. For all intents and purposes, the rules for technical content of  
   EchoMail as defined below are adopted for use in this echo.  
    
   a) Tearlines are not to exceed 35 characters.  
    
   b) Tearlines should only contain "packer" OR editor program  
   information.  
    
   c) Tearlines should not contain any text if there is a PID  
   control line in the message.  
    
   d) Origin Lines should not exceed 79 characters including the  
   required ending of a proper network address.  
    
   e) The use of characters above ASCII 127 and non-printable,  
   low-order control codes are not allowed except when used  
   in screen shots posted to aid someone in their setup.  
    
   6. Multi-line signatures, multi-line "tag lines", and multiple origin  
   lines are disallowed. They tend to only increase the cost of moving  
   this and other echos around the world, and it is our view that they  
   would be much more appropriate in local echos.  
    
   a) The only time that multiple Origin Lines are acceptable is  
   when they are on messages that are gated from one Fido style  
   network to another Fido style network.  
    
   7. We reserve the right to be steel-fisted bastards and deny specific  
   individuals posting access to this conference if the individual  
   repeatedly ignores requests to terminate a message thread or  
   continues to violate one or more of the echo rules.  
    
   8. Do as you would be done by, and don't take yourself too seriously.  
   Remember, we're doing this for FUN!
