Time to lay down the rules!
Okay, since this is a free.uk.* group
a charter doesn't really apply, but since this group is *hopefully*
going to be populated by a small group that follows a similar set of
rules elsewhere it seems pertinent to new users to get an idea of the
thing works!
The group is intended to be a supplant
for btinternet.chatter which is only available on the BTinternet servers,
and thus this group has been created to enable ex and hopefully current
(if I can persuade BTi to carry it!) users of BTinternet to continue
their friendships 'cross isp'.
However as is the norm with the majority
of groups across usenet, the group is open to all so....
Spam is not tolerated of any kind, this
is not a group for advertisements, it's merely intended for chatter
- however links to sites may be placed in signatures....
Since this is a family orientated group
it is recommended that where ever possible users refrain from using
swear words although a stifling of aggression is not encouraged (makes
for healthy discussion sometimes!).
Signatures to be kept below five lines
(no attachments) in the interest of space.
Binaries are not allowed, again a link
to a file or page will suffice.
Please snip long stuff.
There should be no need for crossposting,
though the usual maximum of four groups applies...
Persons posting contrary to these (pretty
loose) guidelines may be reported to their relevant isp - but don't
shoot me, I'm just the messenger!!

BTi were never persuaded to carry this
group.
