This was a short message about an IFR flying publication sent to an IFR forum. The content was clearly indicated by the subject line, nobody was required to open the message. |

The content was clearly indicated by the subject line, nobody was required to open the message. From the subject line we can't tell if you referencing an article, a point of history... If you check the Usenet rules, I believe they prohibit posts selling stuff in any group other those designated (i.e., xxx.marketplace). As Bob said, take it to the marketplace groups where it belongs(and stop being a hypocrite). |

Off-charter postings fail the simple question "what if everybody did it?"

As Bob said, take it to the marketplace groups where it belongs(and stop being a hypocrite). No hypocrite I. I've no objection to anyone using this forum to alert others to item's pertaining to IFR flying. But Earthlink's Acceptable Use Policy does object: "m.News. EarthLink Members should use their best judgment when posting to any newsgroup. Many groups have charters, published guidelines, FAQs, or "community standards" describing what is and is not considered appropriate. Usenet can be a valuable resource if used properly. The continued posting of off-topic articles is prohibited. Commercial advertisements are off-topic in most newsgroups, especially regional groups not specifically named for such. The presence of such articles in a group is not indicative of the group's "intended" use. Please familiarize yourself with basic Usenet netiquette before posting to a newsgroup." -- Bill "the Roadie" Carton |

you don't want spam yet you spam. In principle I agree with you, Bob, but in practice I don't. It is not a black/white issue. This newsgroup is a community of more or less regular contributors. Members "in good standing" are due certain leeway because of their status as useful participants over time. So I don't mind Steven's post because 1) he doesn't make a habit of it, 2) it is on topic and 3) he's a regular. It's a grey area, I know, and one might reasonably argue about who defines a member in good standing; I guess you know 'em when you see 'em. -- Dan C172RG at BFM (remove pants to reply by email) |

Besides, who elected YOU to decide who is a "member in good standing"? |
