                           CB_RADIO ECHO GUIDE LINES
                           -------------------------

            1. Topics should relate to radio in general.

            2. NO blatant profanity, flames, insults or slander.

            3. Any  disputes with  other echo users  will be in a
               gentlemanly/ladylike manner. All disputes with the
               Moderator(s) WILL be handled in Netmail and not in
               the echo.  Let the moderator do the moderating.

               Those conference  users who do not  have access to
               Email or  Netmail  should  advise  a moderator  of
               their  situation  here and  we'll  do our  best to
               provide  you  with  a  means of  communication  to
               resolve  any question  or situation  you may have.

            4. Edit your Quotes!

               Please quote only that to  which you  are replying
               and please change the subject line when you change
               topics.

            5. The CB-RADIO echo is NOT bound by FidoNet! It's
               open to any network and system that wishes to carry
               it.

               However, gating or  cross-posting of  this echo
               conference to any other conference and/or networks
               will not be permitted without explicit  permission
               from the moderator(s).

            6. Please  leave the  moderating to the moderator(s).
               I/we as moderator(s), reserve the  right to change
               these guidelines as/if situations would warrant.

            7. The moderator hates whiners and cry-babies. He's
               already raised three kids of his own.  If you feel
               you are being picked on, leave.

               The moderator reserves the right to ban anyone from
               the conference for *any* reason, and to cut-off any
               BBS whose sysop fails to prevent a banned person from
               posting here.

            8. All messages posted in the CB_RADIO echo will contain
               the REAL name of the poster.  Alias' are preferred in
               the body of the message, but may be used in the FROM:
               field with permission of the moderator.

            9.   Commercial Use.

               Commercial use of an echo in Fidonet is frowned upon.
               Most sysops are paying for this out of their own
               pockets, and don't want to foot the bill for
               commercial advertising.

               However, store owners or businessmen MAY respond to
               want-ads from people looking for specific products.
               If someone asks "where can I get a blah-blah-blah?"
               feel free to respond if you have a blah-blah-blah in
               stock.

               You may post an occasional "press release" type of
               message if you have a _new_ or unique product that is
               of interest to the conference participants.

               Advice, comments, and recommendations about
               commercial products in response to a question are
               always appropriate.

           10. These rules are a living document and I reserve the
               right to change them as I see necessary. Input (via
               netmail or E-mail) is always welcome.
