Daily Report for Sat, Sep 27, 2008

I have several regrets this morning. I regret having to ban two people, one of whom has been a complete jerk since he recently arrived. I regret having to now publish a set of rules for participating in the Discourse. And I regret that ISP and modem issues, and my own system problems this weekend are such that trying to do the WIR is near impossible. There is a strong likelihood that I will publish only an abbreviated version later today.

Important Cara Community Rules and Guidelines:

001. Remember that we are a community, gathering to help each other learn and prosper.

002. Do not spam.

003. Do not use foul language.

004. Do not flood the Discourse with trivial chat.

005. Come to the point as close to the beginning of your posts as possible.

006. Check the spelling, grammar and overall order of your post. Your objectives are clarity and brevity.

007. Use TinyURL in place of very long links.

008. Do not post more than one identical or similar message.

009. Do not write any word or sentence in CAPITAL LETTERS (uppercase) except where essential and appropriate. This rule also applies to subject line and post owner name.

010. Do not insult community members. Express yourself in a kind and respectful manner, even if you are upset. Flaming and fighting are not permitted.

011. Do not post anyone's private information (eg: email address, telephone, personal correspondence, SSN, SIN, ID, residential street address, etc.).

012. Respect copyrights and other applicable laws.

013. Do not discuss specific legal issues.

014. Do not post religious greetings or material.

015. Do not promote another forum (message board, bulletin board).

016. Do not present penny stock tips.

017. Use discretion when discussing scams, fraud, or personal account complaints.

018. Declare vested interests any time you discuss them.

019. Posts or threads that violate these community rules may be deleted.

020. Continued transgression of these rules may result in loss of access.
