    The Fidonet BBS_ADS Echo Rules
    Updated 15 July 2014

    This echo is for listed Fidonet sysops to post ads promoting their
    bulletin board systems.

    By your participation in this echo, you agree to abide by the
    following rules:

    * Real names are required to be used in this echo unless you are using
    an automated posting bot.

    * If you have any questions about a BBS system, please contact the
    sysop or representative listed via netmail or some other method.

    * ANSI and ASCII ads are allowed in this echo, however, be aware that
    some BBS software automatically strips ANSI escape codes.

    * Please do not post more than three times a week for your BBS.

    * No network ads in here please. Those go over in OTHERNETS.

    * English is the main language of the echo since this is the moderator's
    native tongue. You may post a message in your native tongue as long
    as there is a comprehensible English translation in the same message.

    * No blatently off-topic posts, such as "test" messages, et cetera.

    * Please don't gate this echo to USENET, a mailing list, another BBS
    mail network, an online Fidonet mail archive, or anything else
    without the moderator's express and written permission. This is
    a Fidonet echo and needs to stay in Fidonet.

    * This echo does not recognize any local or regional echomail policy,
    such as EP1.

    * The moderator has the final say in dealing with problems in the echo.
    If you have something to say about a moderator's action, please
    contact him via netmail (preferred) or email.

    * This is a living document and will be adjusted as needed.

    * This document will be posted on the 1st and 15th of each month.

    * Please don't hesitate to contact the moderator with any questions
    about this document.

    Thank you for your participation in BBS_ADS!

    * Please do not post more than three times a week for your BBS.

    * Please advertise BBS networks in the in OTHERNETS echo rather than this
    one.

    * Please keep chit-chat to a minimum. I would consider complementing
    someone on their ANSI art, or asking a quick question about the BBS
    advertised, as being on topic. If you find you are asking more questions,
    or not even discussing the advertisement anymore, please consider moving
    the discussion to netmail or to another more appropriate echo.

    * English is the main language of the echo since this is the moderator's
    native tongue. You may post a message in your native tongue as long
