Rules and info
YOur host and moderator:  Richard Webb of Fidonet 1:116/901

Last updated January 12, 2012

What it's for:  A place for moderators to exchange tips tricks and
information regarding moderation of FIdonet echoes and other
forums.  Any and all discussion regarding the management and
moderation of a Fidonet conference is welcome.

Users and point operators must request permission to post in
this echomail conference, either via routed netmail, or via the sysop
hosting the user or point system.  PErmission will be granted
to recognized moderators of Fidonet echomail conferences who
are not themselves the operator of a system listed in the
FIdonet nodelist.  The conference may be made available as
read only to all other points and users.

Moderators who are not Fidonet system operators may send
email to

richard.webb@116-901.ftn.wpusa.dynip.com with a subject line
indicating that the message is requesting write privileges in
this conference. Parties requesting access via email must state
which listed FIdonet system they will be using to post in
the conference, or a point address derived from a listed
FIdonet system.  When permission to post is approved it will be
posted in the echo, and routed netmail sent to the sysop
hosting the requester.  IF an individual requesting posting
privileges is not known to the moderator his/her request
will be conveyed to the echo for the purpose of seeking
additional information from echo participants.

Usual rules of FIdonet echomail apply.  These
include the use of real names, proper displaying of address
and other information on messages originating from your system,
etc.

Gateways to/from other networks must be approved by users
of the conference.  IF approved any gateway must work in both
directions.  The operator of any approved gate is responsible
for all traffic entering the echo through that gateway.

MOderation issues will be handled by Fidonet netmail only.
OTher than that, come on in, pull up a chair!  Thanks for
participating in the Fidonet echomods conference.
