     General directions:  After you receive your confirmation message, I will also send you a personal welcome message with a short needs assessment survey attached (via personal E-mail). Please fill this survey out as soon as convenient so that I can help introduce you to the group. I will also use this information to tailor the Lingo-L mailing list to your needs and desires. Return your completed survey directly to me rather than to the Lingo-L mailing list.
      If you are new to the list, please feel free to introduce yourself to everyone in a brief message, if you like. You are also welcome to discuss personal interests or information as they relate to differences in the use of words in your culture versus other cultures in the world. Please try to keep wholly personal or off-topic conversations off the list as much as possible, however.
     Please note:  Lingo-L is an unmoderated mailing list. However, flames, spams, racial slurs, and overtly sexual remarks will not be tolerated by the list owner (EvaMarie). If I see that a Lingo-L member is repeatedly breaking one of these sanctions, I will send an E-mail message to that person to the effect that he or she will be removed from mailing list, and I will follow through with my decision immediately.
     Exceptions: The only exception to the spam rule regards announcements about other sources of information on languages and learning languages that a list member may deem to be of general interest. Such announcements are always welcome on the list. Please begin the subject line of these messages with the word ANNOUNCE>.  
  
Example:  Subject: ANNOUNCE>
 
       
 
Thank you for joining Lingo-L!
I hope that you have a lot of fun and learn something too!
