    *FIDO_SYSOP Echomail Conference*
    Conference Rules

    Last Revision
    5th December 2016

    - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * - * -

    This echo, FIDO_SYSOP, is for FidoNet sysops only. Fidonet SysOps are defin
    for the purpose of these rules as any operator of a node number which appea
    in the International Fidonet nodelist as issued weekly by the ZC's of their
    respective zones.

    Anything of interest to Fidonet SysOps is on topic in FIDO_SYSOP. The topic
    of discussion are not subject to moderator interpretation or restriction,
    and moderator warnings and/or feed cuts may only be issued for actions such
    as flaming and personal attacks, or excessively annoying behavior, such as
    vulgar or lewd language, spamming the echo, illegal activities in the echo,
    or any other case specifically mentioned in these rules.

    1. A Point may participate in this Conference if operated by a FidoNet
    nodelisted SysOp. If the bossnode is not operated by the posting SysOp,
    the SysOp's FidoNet nodelisted address must be included as part of the
    signature in the text of the message. Any Fidonet nodelisted SysOp may
    also participate in this Conference from another Fidonet nodelisted
    SysOp's BBS system, provided their real name and nodelisted address
    appears in the signature of the text of the message. In such a case,
    the SysOp operating the BBS that the second SysOp is posting from must
    restrict the access of the echo to other Fidonet nodelisted SysOps
    *only*. The forging of messages to make them appear to be posted by
    another Fidonet nodelisted SysOp may, upon confirmation by the moderator
    of the message's non-authenticity from the second SysOp identified in
    the signature line, be interpreted by the moderator as excessively
    annoying behavior.

    2. This Conference must not be gated OUTSIDE of FidoNet without specific
    permission from the Conference moderator. No such arrangement may be
    made by the moderator if it could result in distribution of this
    Conference to persons who are not SysOps of systems listed in the FidoNet
    nodelist. This is an ECHOMAIL Conference. It may not be gated into any
    alternate technology which would make it impossible or impractical to
    enforce the stated distribution restrictions.

    3. There is a "real name only" restriction in place for this
    conference. A Fidonet member may post a message using an alias, but
    such messages must contain within them, the real name of the SysOp in
    the signature line.

    4. The moderator term is 24 months and during month 23, an election
    must be held for the Moderator of FIDO_SYSOP. Upon completion of this
    election, the former moderator must turn the password for the elist
    robot over to the new moderator and yield the position. At any
    time during his or her term, a moderator may appoint a co-moderator.
    If a moderator is unable to complete his or her term, and has not yet
    appointed a co-moderator, he or she may name a replacement to finish
    the term, revealing the elist password to the replacement moderator.
    Should a moderator disappear from the conference without leaving a
    successor or co-moderator, a replacement moderator may be chosen
    by the echo participants to serve until the next regular election.
    Although the Elist Keeper may not be bound by echo conference rules,
    he is specifically requested to facilitate access to the FIDO_SYSOP
    conference listing for such a replacement moderator in the event that
    the elist password is not available or the previous moderator refuses
    to yield the moderator position.

    5. Any moderator of FIDO_SYSOP, present or future, *MAY NOT* make
    *ANY CHANGES* to these rules without the approval of the echo's
    participants through a public vote in the Conference itself. If a
    vote on a rule change is deadlocked, the status quo will be preserved.

    6. Personal attacks, flames, and name calling are not welcome in
    this conference. If you cannot discuss an issue without resorting
    to name calling or personal attacks, find another echo to discuss
    your issues in. If the moderator feels the attack or flame was
    excessively out of line, or the SysOp involved continues to resort
    to attacks after repeated warnings, a feed cut to the SysOp
    involved can be issued with no further warnings to the offending
    system.

    7. A feed cut or a "vacation" from the echo may not be issued without
    at least three warnings to the offender being given by the moderator,
    whether such warnings are done via netmail or publically in the
    conference itself. A "vacation" may not last longer than four weeks,
    and a feed cut may not last longer than three months. There is no limit
    on the number of "vacations" or feed cuts that may be issued by the
    moderator, provided that such "vacations" or feed cuts are consistant
    with the Conference rules.

    8. Deliberate retransmittal of the Conference to another system
    which is not run by a FidoNet SysOp or providing access to a SysOp
    who has been "cut" from the Conference is grounds for a feed cut
    from the Conference, with no right of appeal, subject to the terms
    of rule #7. This rule may be interpreted to include a point of a
    system wherein the poster of the message is not properly identified
    as a Fidonet nodelisted SysOp, according to the methods defined in
    rules #1 and #3.

    9. This Conference is the collective property of all FidoNet Sysops
    and not that of the moderator. Should the moderator feel it
    necessary to make significant changes in distribution or rules of
    the Conference, such changes should be done in COOPERATION with the
    FidoNet Sysops participating.
    UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES is the Conference restriction to FidoNet Sysops
    to be removed.

    10. In the interest of communication amongst *all* Fidonet SysOps,
    this echo specifically is meant for participation in English only. While
    other languages may be allowed at certain times by the moderator, such
    messages should not be solely in those other languages, and an attempt to
    communicate in English with the other SysOps participating in the
    Conference must be made by all participants. The prolonged posting of
    messages consisting solely of languages other than English, or messages
    using codepages such as Cryllic which cannot be readily understood by
    those participating in English may be deemed excessively annoying behavior
    by the moderator.

    11. Commercial posts are strictly prohibited in the FIDO_SYSOP Conference.

    12. Echopol1 (EP1) is not in use in this echo and will not be honored here
