Messages that do not fit the above are "Off Topic" and shall not be posted in this list. If a conflict arises, the moderator's best judgement shall prevail.
Examples of things that are forbidden in this list include, but are not limited to, the following. If someone finds a new way to annoy all and sundry, a new category will be added:
PIRACY - Discussion of the ILLEGAL acquisition of copyrighted software or sending copyrighted software through the echo against the author's expressed wishes is forbidden.
PERSONAL ATTACKS (FLAMES) - You may disagree with the viewpoint of other users. Do so politely and without "Ad Hominem" comments.
