1) Sign your messages
Please be sure to sign your message with your name
and street of residence.
Commercial signatures are to be avoided.
2) Be respectful and courteous
Please refrain from any personal and direct retorts on
individual members or elected officials by name.
Please disagree in a friendly and respectful manner.
We all have very strong opinions, but we can disagree
in a respectful manner without getting personal.
3) Make sure the subject is descriptive
Please be sure to put a descriptive subject in your
message. This helps people who are scanning their
email for subjects of interest to them.
4) How to send an email to the listserv
To originate a message to the group, email it
to: Luxmanor_citizens@yahoogroups.com
5) Trim your replies
It is helpful if you can remove all but the pertinent
thoughts you are responding to when you reply.
6) Copyright
Copyrighted information,including newspaper articles,
should not be posted to the listserv if the copyright
owner has not consented to the posting.
7) Replies go to the entire list
If you want to respond privately to the poster, you will
need to insert their email address into the "to" for the email
and delete the group address.
8) Help reduce the number of messages
Refrain from messages that only say "I agree" or
"well said" or "me too." Those types of messages are
best sent only to the author of the message.
9) Reread posts before sending
It is helpful to read each message knowing
the sender may have meant something entirely different
from the meaning you ascribe to it. In the same way,
it is always a good idea to re-read you own message
before you send it, to make sure it is conveying your
intended meaning. Sometimes, with a hot issue, delaying
the sending of your response and re-reading it hours
later is a good course of action.
10) Focus your posts and replies
We are all busy people. To reach the largest
audience, keep your thoughts focused on issues and
positions or you will lose your audience.
11) Chain emails are not permitted
Check your “urban legends” carefully. [Urban Legends Website is a good source]
12) Items allowed for post
The website/ListServ allows residents to post items for sale or barter at no charge.
Allowable items include most legal items as well as one's own house,
vacation rental or rental property, whether For Sale by owner or the offer
of one’s home thorough a particular real estate agent. This would also apply if the resident
or resident agent is selling their own property.
Messages soliciting the purchase of property from agents and residents
should be directed to the commercial advertising section.
Email Luxmanor Webmaster for information about placement and rates.
LCA does not itself endorse or imply establishments or service providers
that are advertised on the site or recommended. Caveat Emptor.
13) Avoid politics and religion
Avoid political and religious references or solicitiations. As with advertising,
the LCA/listserv does not itself endorse or imply endorsements of ideas put forth by LCA members.
14) Be patient!
Everyone needs to remember that the members of this list vary in their computer savvy and expertise.
Please be patient and remember all of us make mistakes, even the most expert!
Finally, the moderators are here to help you with any problems you may have. Please do not
hesitate to ask for help!
