    MUFFIN - The Maximus Support Echo
    Moderator - mark lewis, 1:3634/12

    1. This echo is for Maximus BBS software support and discussion.
    Messages posted here should pertain to Maximus and related
    utilities. MEX/MECCA script discussions are also welcome.
    Discussions that lean more toward Squish should be continued in
    the TUB echo.

    2. English is the official language allowed in this echo. However,
    a message in your native tongue is allowed as long as there is
    an English translation in the same message. If you must, at least
    use google translate to provide the English translation.

    3. Please use your real name when posting here. If you aren't sure,
    check your birth certificate.

    4. This echo is restricted to sysops (or soon to be sysops) only.

    5. When someone posts a message requesting help, please try to be as
    helpful and accurate as possible.

    6. No BBS ads, 'test' messages, "where are you from" chains, replies
    to off-topic messages, encrypted messages, PGP sigs, multiline
    sigs or taglines, playing moderator (unless you -are- the
    moderator), hi-ascii/ascii "artwork" (we really -don't- care to
    see it), uuencoded files, or huge amounts of over-quoting.

    "high-bit" ASCII characters are permitted ONLY in the context of
    demonstrating something directly related to Maximus or a related
    util. Other uses are not allowed. ANSI is -never- allowed.

    If a program (reader, tagline mgr, etc.) is adding a lot of extra
    junk to messages, please don't use it here. The moderator will
    decide what's "extra junk", and let you know.

    "Internet-style" signatures are -greatly- unwelcome, as well as
    listing every email account or FTN-type address you have. Leave it
    out, please. One -short- line is an "acceptable" signature.

    "OS Bashing" is not welcome here. Don't do it. Period. This also
    means, leave your cutesy "OS put-down" tag/origin lines out of
    this echo. Grow up, ok?

    Please, do not use a "shotgun" approach to posting, cc'ing a
    message to all Maximus-related echoes. Pick the one echo that
    applies to your topic, and post the message only in that one.

    7. Please, limit quoting in your replies. If you're quoting more than
    a couple lines, you're probably quoting too much. Never quote tag/
    tear/origin lines unless they pertain to the support being given.

    8. Rules of Common Courtesy apply at -all- times. If you want to argue
    with, or complain to someone, do it elsewhere. Play nice!

    9. File announcements are allowed by authors of utilities directly
    related to the topic of this echo. You are also encouraged to help
    others find programs they may need. When doing so, please include
    filenames, and what restrictions (if any) you have on file requests.
    In the case of files via HTTP or FTP, *try* to include the URL (and
    directory if needed) of the file as well.

    10. This echo may not be gated (in or out) to any other network, without
    prior permission of the moderator. Authorized gates will be published
    in the ELIST*.* listing for this echo.

    Changes will be made to this list as needed. Your input is welcome via
    netmail. Arguing about moderator decisions/rules is not welcome in the
    echo... Again, please use netmail.

    Thanks for using the MUFFIN echo!
