[DL] DistanceLearning List Guidelines

V. Enforcing Constructive List Behavior

To facilitate respectful discussion, essential Netiquette policies will be enforced in the following manner at the sole discretion of the listowner:

  • First you will receive a courtesy warning from the list owner or administrator, and possibly asked to refrain from posting to the list for a week. If you post nonetheless, you will be permanently removed from the list.
  • If for any reason you post a public complaint about the courtesy warning, however veiled, you will be permanently removed from the list.
  • If asked to refrain from posting for a week and you comply, you may simply begin posting to the list again. However if the unacceptable behavior is repeated, you will be permanently excluded from participation in the list without further warning.
