[RocketsNW] RocketsNW list guidelines of conduct

I've always taken a very light hand to moderating this list.  Due to the
actions of a few individuals, I'm being forced to take a more active
approach.  

Let me re-iterate the rules of this list, which are somewhat informal.  The
list is here for the expressed purpose of discussing rocketry.  Personal
attacks on others will result in being banned from the list.  I am the sole
judge of what constitutes a personal attack on this list.  

Up to this point, off-topic rants have been tolerated.  We've had posts on
government, gun control, and quite a laundry list of other non-rocketry
related topics.  From here on out, OT rants will earn the participants
moderation mode.  A warning may or may not be given.  Determination of what
constitutes an OT Rant is left to my judgment.  Moderation mode means you
can still post to the list, but all posts are held until reviewed and
released to the list by the admin (me).  How long someone remains on
moderation mode will be determined on a case by case basis.  Multiple
offenses may result in being banned.

This is obnoxious, but I'm pretty much stuck here.  When it comes down to
moderating/banning a few folks who want to use the list as a sounding board
for non-rocketry topics or seeing other members drop off the list to avoid
the noise I choose the former.

Regrettably,

Greg Deputy
List Admin
