These actions are little, but they go a long ways towards keeping this list as a vibrant, local community resource.SFBAVEG is currently managed by volunteers who also have full time jobs and other responsibilities in their lives, so we do ask for your support in maintaining the focus and value of SFBAVEG. If you are a new member or have not posted before, please review the group charter and full posting guidelines online:http://www.BayAreaV eg.org/charter http://www.BayAreaV eg.org/posts. htm Thanks for your understanding and support.Tammy, Chris, and KarenSFBAVeg List AdminsBay Area Vegetarianshttp://www.BayAreaV eg.orgA. General GuidelinesB. Bay Area VegetariansC. Monthly NewsletterD. Frequently Asked Questions------------ ---------A. General Guidelines ------------ ---------1. With hundreds of messages submitted to SFBAVEG and the forum every month, we need to balance and incorporate the various needs that different folks have for this shared resource. Some folks are new/aspiring vegetarians while others are strong vegan advocates or animal rights activists. Everyone's interest and participation level is different.2. Members in good standing may submit messages or event notices to the SFBAVEG mailing list and forum. Each individual is responsible for the content of their posts, and any posts which they forward on to the list. All messages submitted must adhere to these standards:3. On-topic and relevant That means it's on-topic (veg or animal rights related) and if necessary, locally relevant. Please do not send repeated and redundant updates about the same event or ongoing project; these become "noise" or "spam" and diminish the effectiveness of our mailing list and alienates the community that we are trying to support. Help maintain manageable and meaningful volume by keeping posts relevant. 4. Signed with your name, or contain your name in the email header. If you aren't willing to put your name to your post, then it should not be posted. 5. Decorous content: Polite, and not promote prohibited activities or actions. Please be open-minded and supportive in your messages, remember not everyone is at the same point in their veg*nism as you are. Today's aspiring vegetarian could be tomorrow's vegan advocate.6. Eliminate unnecessary original text in replies (more on mailing list manners)7. Adhere to additional guidelines for events, commercial announcements, etc. as appropriate (see posting guidelines at - http://www.BayAreaV eg.org/posts. htm )Posts which do not meet these guidelines may be deleted or rejected without notice.
