   You posted in the soc.genealogy.britain newsgroup.   
      
   What makes you think you’ll find what you’re looking for in a forum   
   for discussing history?   
      
   You’re looking in the wrong place and your message is off-topic.   
      
   We’re only interested in dead peple here.   
      
   The newsgroups you should be using are   
      
   alt.sex.services   
   alt.sex.personals   
      
   or if you are such a wanker that you keep posting off-topic messages   
   here, try   
      
   alt.sex.masturbaton

   3.1.3  NetNews Guidelines   
      
      NetNews is a globally distributed system which allows people to   
      communicate on topics of specific interest.  It is divided into   
      hierarchies, with the major divisions being: sci - science related   
      discussions; comp - computer related discussions; news - for   
      discussions which center around NetNews itself; rec - recreational   
      activities; soc - social issues; talk - long-winded never-ending   
      discussions; biz - business related postings; and alt - the   
   alternate   
      hierarchy.  Alt is so named because creating an alt group does not   
   go   
      through the same process as creating a group in the other parts of   
      the hierarchy.  There are also regional hierarchies, hierarchies   
      which are widely distributed such as Bionet, and your place of   
      business may have its own groups as well.  Recently, a "humanities"   
      hierarchy was added, and as time goes on its likely more will be   
      added.  For longer discussions on News see references [2,8,22,23]   
   in   
      the Selected Bibliography.   
      
       - In NetNews parlance, "Posting" refers to posting a new article   
         to a group, or responding to a post someone else has posted.   
         "Cross-Posting" refers to posting a message to more than one   
         group.  If you introduce Cross-Posting to a group, or if you   
         direct "Followup-To:" in the header of your posting, warn   
         readers!  Readers will usually assume that the message was   
         posted to a specific group and that followups will go to   
         that group.  Headers change this behavior.   
      
       - Read all of a discussion in progress (we call this a thread)   
         before posting replies.  Avoid posting "Me Too" messages,   
         where content is limited to agreement with previous posts.   
         Content of a follow-up post should exceed quoted content.   
      
       - Send mail when an answer to a question is for one person only.   
         Remember that News has global distribution and the whole world   
         probably is NOT interested in a personal response.  However,   
   don't   
         hesitate to post when something will be of general interest to   
   the   
         Newsgroup participants.   
      
       - Check the "Distribution" section of the header, but don't   
         depend on it.  Due to the complex method by which News is   
         delivered, Distribution headers are unreliable.  But, if you   
         are posting something which will be of interest to a limited   
         number or readers, use a distribution line that attempts to   
         limit the distribution of your article to those people.  For   
         example, set the Distribution to be "nj" if you are posting   
         an article that will be of interest only to New Jersey readers.   
      
       - If you feel an article will be of interest to more than one   
         Newsgroup, be sure to CROSSPOST the article rather than   
   individually   
         post it to those groups.  In general, probably only five-to-six   
         groups will have similar enough interests to warrant this.   
      
       - Consider using Reference sources (Computer Manuals, Newspapers,   
         help files) before posting a question.  Asking a Newsgroup where   
         answers are readily available elsewhere generates grumpy "RTFM"   
         (read the fine manual - although a more vulgar meaning of the   
         word beginning with "f" is usually implied) messages.   
      
       - Although there are Newsgroups which welcome advertising,   
         in general it is considered nothing less than criminal   
         to advertise off-topic products.  Sending an advertisement   
         to each and every group will pretty much guarantee your loss of   
         connectivity.   
      
       - If you discover an error in your post, cancel it as soon as   
         possible.   
      
       - DO NOT attempt to cancel any articles but your own.  Contact   
         your administrator if you don't know how to cancel your post,   
         or if some other post, such as a chain letter, needs canceling.   
      
       - If you've posted something and don't see it immediately,   
         don't assume it's failed and re-post it.   
      
       - Some groups permit (and some welcome) posts which in other   
         circumstances would be considered to be in questionable taste.   
         Still, there is no guarantee that all people reading the group   
         will appreciate the material as much as you do.  Use the Rotate   
         utility (which rotates all the characters in your post by 13   
         positions in the alphabet) to avoid giving offense.   The   
         Rot13 utility for Unix is an example.   
      
       - In groups which discuss movies or books it is considered   
   essential   
         to mark posts which disclose significant content as "Spoilers".   
         Put this word in your Subject: line.  You may add blank lines to   
         the beginning of your post to keep content out of sight, or you   
         may Rotate it.   
      
       - Forging of news articles is generally censured. You can protect   
         yourself from forgeries by using software which generates a   
         manipulation detection "fingerprint", such as PGP (in the US).   
      
       - Postings via anonymous servers are accepted in some Newsgroups   
         and disliked in others.  Material which is inappropriate when   
         posted under one's own name is still inappropriate when posted   
         anonymously.   
      
       - Expect a slight delay in seeing your post when posting to a   
         moderated group.  The moderator may change your subject   
         line to have your post conform to a particular thread.   
      
       - Don't get involved in flame wars.  Neither post nor respond   
         to incendiary material.
