1) Use common sense and stay courteous. NO PROFANITY, OR ABBREVIATIONS FOR PROFANITY

2) SUBJECT LINES: The subject should match the post. Posts with subjects that don't match are confusing. If the topic has changed, change the subject line. Posts with substantially mismatched subjects, including replies to Digests, are subject to removal from the message archive.

3) Stay on topic. Only Career/Job/Networking related messages should be posted. No spam, no porn, no jokes, no marketing of products or services. No exceptions.

4) To keep things easily readable, delete unnecessary parts of the post you are responding to. Most of the time this means deleting the previously quoted post and only quoting a single post in yours. When replying to a message type your reply to that message at the top of the old message, above quoted questions. Keep responses on the same subject matter, if you enlarge a topic to include additional areas, add something to the subject line to signify this. If you have a new question, start a new topic.

5) Please sign your name as it makes following much easier. Handles or Nicknames are fine, just stay consistent.

6) No spammers will be tolerated, they will be BANNED from the group. DO NOT REPLY to spam messages. Members who "REPLY" to spam messages will be put on MODERATION or BANNED. Questions about posted messages should be sent to Westchester_Networking_Organization-OWNER@yahoogroups.com. The owners/moderators will handle and address as needed.

7) We reserve the right to put any userid on moderation if it appears that it has been compromised.

8) No personal attacks on members will be tolerated, do not try to make a member look foolish.

Failure to adhere to the guidelines will get you put onto moderation. Continued failure to adhere will get you banned.

These guidelines are subject to change by the group owner and moderators if and when needed. We welcome your thoughts on them.

The owners and moderators of the group are the final arbiter.
