[AusNOG] Charter Change ?

[Christopher Mclean]

There is also the added tack that if everybody ignores (and I mean no comment) a post they believe is off topic or stupid the noise level will be reduced. 1 person posts a whirlpool comment and 45 people complain.

Good evening,  I reply to this thread with trepidation, hopeful that I don't end up perpetuating discussion along the lines of the one/s that initiated this ;)

How about these two points to start with:

1) If you want to dis someone, be it legitimate or otherwise, send it direct to the person to whom you have your beef
	- I mean it's not like you reply-to-list accidentally, and I honestly have no interest in hearing about it :-}

2) If you receive direct reply from some other list recipient whingeing about your post, don't reply it to the list - EVER
	- man, replying any kind of personal email to a public list is, surely, incredibly poor form - no matter HOW stupid one thinks it will make the other person seem - and I have even LESS interest in hearing about THAT!
:-D

The above 2 behaviours simply bring no value to this list (IMHO) and so surely have no place here.

I appreciate Terry's points about taking a light touch approach, but surely there are some simple rules that could easily be applied to a '3 strikes'
type approach - the above as some examples :-}

Cheers!

Mike.
