The COOKING Echo Rules

Moderator: Sean Dennis (1:18/200 -or-

This is the National Cooking Echo. It is a non-region specific
conference dedicated to all persons interested in cooking and/or food
related topics. The National Cooking Echo may not be gated without the
moderator's permission.
1. Topics may be broad but the common theme shall remain cooking. This
may include recipes, appliances, utensils, cookbooks, food history,
et cetera. The discussion of the benefits of herbs for medicinal
purposes is off-topic as are the benefits or recipes of any illegal
or controlled substances. Discussion of brewing and distilling
alcohol is not allowed. Discussion of consumption of alcohol for
which the primary purpose is other than intoxication is specifically
permitted.
2. Avoid excessive quoting. Try to quote just enough of the message so
the person you are responding to understands the reply. Try to
change the subject line when it no longer applies to the message.
3. The number of recipes per message should be limited to one or two
short recipes such that the message body is of a reasonable size.
The inclusion of recipes, whether or not related to the topic of
the message body, is not mandatory but encouraged. Please make an
effort to properly attribute quotations or other creative content
to their original or at least an intermediate source.
4. DON'T get personal! Personal attacks (flames) and profanity are
unwelcome in this conference and will not be tolerated.
5. No religion, theology, doctrine or biblical references are to be
discussed or debated. However, religious taglines are allowed
if they reference food or cooking. No political debates will be
tolerated. No racial, ethnic or religious slurs will be
tolerated. Headers and taglines, save for the exception above,
are subject to the same rules as the message body.
6. The official language of the echo is English. Please do not post
messages, recipes, or anything else in any other language without
a proper translation into English as part of the same message.
7. ONLY the moderators will address off-topic traffic or any other
violation of decorum or these rules.
8. Handles and/or aliases allowed if they are a normal part of your
BBSing. However, you must post your real first and last name at
the end of the body of your message if it does not appear in
the header. Maintain only one presence on this echo; i.e., if
you post with multiple names from multiple BBS accounts, make
sure to sign your posts as noted above.
9. As stated in rule 6, the only language of the echo is English.
However, there are many foreign words which are common in cooking
terminology. For this reason, occasional and limited use of the
extended character set (i.e. high ASCII) is allowed in messages and
recipes ONLY in appropriate context, e.g. foreign words. Degree
symbols and currency signs are frowned upon because of the lack
of a standard translation by readers used by many members. High
ASCII fractions are not allowed because some BBS software
transforms them into whole numbers.
The use of the extended character set (ASCII codes 127 and above),
the control characters (ASCII codes 31 and below), or ANSI escape
code sequences for artistic purposes is NOT allowed in messages or
signature blocks.
10. The Cooking Echo is a plain text echo. HTML coded text, other
"rich text" codes and/or inserted pictures are not allowed.
11. NO advertisements of any kind (including BBS ads) allowed, with the
exception of ONE advertisement of new cooking-related software is
allowed. You may NEVER advertise ANYTHING to sell in the echo.
12. The total number of messages per day posted by any single member
should be limited to 20. If you wish to post mass quantities of
recipes, please use the RECIPES echo for this.
13. This echo does not recognize any local or regional echomail policies
such as EP1. This echo originates in Zone 1 and follows Zone 1
policies concerning the "echolist".
14. Any change in moderators will be done by the current moderators.
15. All official moderation messages will contain wording that
distinguishes them from ordinary traffic.
16. The moderators may, at their sole discretion, appoint temporary
assistant Moderators whose action within the echo only shall
carry the full weight of official moderation.
17. These rules are subject to change at any time. The moderators
will give timely notice of such changes; their word is the
final authority and is not subject to question.
18. No discussion of moderation is to be done in the Echo. Any
discussion of moderation should be directed to the
moderators via netmail (preferred) or email.
Thank you for participating in the echo!
