Subject: [k-list] Guidelines

 > 
>1)  Should the guidelines be loosened enough to become a free for all of  
silly jokes, ...etc. 
 
   Absolutely not! 
 
>2)  Should the guideline be respected and enforced, to stick to the topic of  
kundalini and related member experiences?  
 
   Yes.  Occasional off topic post might be allowable--but not if it becomes  
a thread or a constant annoyance.   
 
 
>2a) Would you be willing to help remind members who stray off topic by  
posting to them privately?  
 
   Yes.  But to date I haven't seen it as a serious problem--of course that  
could be because people presently fear reprocussions!  :))  But maybe not.   
If I saw it becoming a problem I'd be more diligent in reminding people.   
 
>3)   Should another list be created, for the jokers and people who want to  
look at forwarded jokes and attachments. 
 
No. 
 
> 3a)... and people who post such stuff repeatedly, be banished there?  
 
I suggest keeping the guidelines in order to keep off topic posts at a  
minimum.  If someone feels strongly enough to knowingly break the guidelines  
occasionally, I don't feel compelled to spend the energy reminding them of  
the obvious. (Hi David!)  For those unaware of the guidelines, I would be  
glad to help enlighten them.   
 
>4) Is bandwidth a concern for you? Do you care if the list traffic grows  
because of off topic content?  
 
 bandwidth not a concern, but jokes etc waste my time.  They are already  
omnipresent. 
 
>5) Are attachments a concern for you? Bear in mind that a list that allows  
attachments is vulnerable to the spread of viruses. Allow them or not?  
 
Not a concern for me.  Open at own risk.  Pictures might sometimes be nice,  
but probably not worth the potential problem for others.  I've never  
understood why people put small amounts of text into an attachment.   
 
>6) Is styled text a problem for you? 
 
No, but as you've said, it is a problem for digest viewers.  No reason for  
them.
