I can see you might not be the sharpest tool in the shed, you are on the 
list, you know that long email you got spelling out the rule of the 
road, so your answer is "you are here", BTW demanding help is always in 
poor taste, I would also subject your next question should be, "what 
would people subject is the right way to learn sailing with my new boat??"

 something tells me you did not read this part so:

The Rhodes 22 Owner's Group Mailing List Charter

Welcome to the Rhodes 22 Owner's Group Mailing List. This list is open 
to everyone with an interest in Rhodes Sailboats. It is an automated 
email distribution list where messages addressed to the list are copied 
to every list member's mailbox. Traffic varies from one to 40 messages a 
day.


The list is maintained by rhodes22.org as a courtesy to Rhodes Sailboats 
Fans worldwide. It is hoped that the list will promote discussion about 
Rhodes Sailboats and provide members with a means of sharing their 
interests and experiences.

CHARTER: rhodes22-list at rhodes22.org <mailto:rhodes22-list at rhodes22.org>

The rhodes22-list at rhodes22.org <mailto:rhodes22-list at rhodes22.org> group 
will be open to discussion of all subjects specifically referring to 
Rhodes sailboats or, Rhodes sailors. The focus of this group includes, 
but is not limited to:

* Encouraging the understanding and discussion of Rhodes sailboats or 
Rhodes sailors, in the many ways people wish to define them.

* Acting as a source of information for Rhodes sailboats or Rhodes 
sailors worldwide and for people planning to buy/sell/repair/learn about 
Rhodes sailboats or Rhodes sailors.

* Providing a forum for the development and promotion Rhodes sailboats 
or Rhodes sailors' culture, history, traditions and economy.

* Any other subject that might be found at a sailor's bar or the 
clubhouse bar, including, Rhodes sailboats or Rhodes sailors' travels, 
events, family, jokes, quotations, pets, etc.

* The level of discussion does not have to be fit for a child, but some 
good taste is expected.

 

Binaries and Formatting:

Attaching images (tif, jpg, gif) to an email is acceptable. Our server 
will convert these to a web link

 

Case:

Please use mixed case when posting (Upper and lower case letters), 
typing words in uppercase means you are SHOUTING.

Quoting:
Place new material at the top of the post and quote what you are 
replying to below. That makes it simple to find out what is being said. 
You are encouraged to edit down the quoted material.

HTML mail:
A lot of the email programs (Netscape and Outlook among others) can send 
their email with embedded HTML. Embedded HTML can cause some of the list 
members to have trouble reading their mail due to "browser wars", not 
reading their mail with a web browser and double messages in digest 
mode. Members are encouraged to set their programs to send "plain text" 
email.

Subject Line:

Please set or change the subject line to reflect the true subject of 
the post. For example, "Subject: anchors" might be turned into "Subject: 
gas tank was anchors". If a joke (or any questionable material) is being 
posted please indicate it on the subject line. For example, "Subject: 
Monday's Humor (jokes)"

Netiquette:
Posts to the group are expected to be considerate of other readers. 
Personal abuse, flames, and obscenities are *not* appreciated; but we 
are sailors.......

Anonymous email:
It is expected that users will provide their name in the email and will 
sign same.  We like to know to whom we are talking.

Social Interaction/Manners:
To a certain extent, the interaction is about what you would expect in 
any informal social setting, for example, a bar.  It is recommended that 
you get to know people first and introduce yourself (about the same 
social rules that you would use to meet any new group of people). There 
is a high level of chitchat on the list, and what you might think is 
insulting to a group or region might only be people kidding each other 
after knowing each other for years.  As in any bar, the subjects of 
politics and religion can lead to heated augments and bar fights. These 
might be best avoided.

The need to participate:
It is recognized that a group is only whoever posts to it, no more and 
no less. We can only talk about what people post about. You earn respect 
on the list by your postings and trying to help each other, you cannot 
demand it. Most sailing topics we have talked about at one time or 
another already, we chit chat in the mean time, waiting to answer 
questions or for a new subject/story.  If you want to know something, 
please post it, the more detail the better. If someone is trying to help 
you please answer their reasonable questions. If you can help someone, 
again, post it. Try to repay the knowledge you may have gained.

 

Thank You,

The Members of the Rhodes 22 Owner's Group
