Discussion List Etiquette
You agree to abide by the following etiquette when using the List:
- Include a signature tag on all messages. Include your name, affiliation, location, and e-mail address.
- State the topic of the comments in the subject line. This allows members to respond more appropriately to your posting.
- Include only the relevant portions of the original message in your reply, delete any header information, and put your response before the original posting. Do not change the name of a Discussion List thread. Simply hit the "Reply to:" button and leave the name unchanged.
- Keep your messages concise and to the point
- Please do not advertise via the Discussion List.
- Only send a message to the entire List when it contains information that everyone can benefit from.
- Do not send administrative messages, such as remove me from the List, through the List.
Discussion List Rules
- Do not post commercial messages, this is also known as spam. Contact people directly with products and services that you believe would help them.
- Intentional insults and personal criticism directed at an individual or company will not be tolerated. Rebuttals to another person's opinions or beliefs should always be made in a rational, logical and mature manner, whether they are made publicly or privately.
- Do not post messages if they encourage or facilitate members to arrive at any agreement that either expressly or impliedly leads to price fixing, a boycott of another's business, or other conduct intended to illegally restrict free trade. Messages that encourage or facilitate an agreement about the following subjects are inappropriate: prices, discounts, or terms or conditions of sale or services; salaries; profits, profit margins, or cost data; market shares; allocation of clients or territories; or selection, rejection, or termination of clients or third party payors.
- In the event that any inappropriate posting is brought to NSCA’'s attention, NSCA will take all appropriate action.
- NSCA reserves the right to terminate access to any user who does not abide by these rules.
