For either list, we
ask first that you refrain from sending anything that may be offensive. The
obvious topics include:

ANNOUNCMENTS
LIST (folkdancers@trianglefolkdancers.org)
This list is for short, brief announcements (and sometimes
updates) of general interest to all dancers.Topics
may include:
- Folk dance parties, workshops, and dance and music
performances or exhibitions
- Other events that either involve our current
or alumni folk dancers or may be of general folk-related interest
(museum openings, plays, etc.)
- Family transitions:
births, deaths, marriages, illnesses, etc.
- Dance (RIFD or CHIFDC) organizational topics, such as
decisions, upcoming meetings, location changes, and upcoming teaching
(to name a few)
The operative words
here are announcement
and brief.
Please,
do not “reply all” to the announce list or post a global opinion. If you have a question, then reply privately
to the sender only. If you want to discuss,
vote, or chat
about any posted announcement, then shift over to the folkchat list.
CHAT/DISCUSSION
FORUM (folkchat@trianglefolkdancers.org)
This list is for just about any other topic you want to discuss. Example
topics may include:
- Discussions about “announce” list postings
- Requests for feedback or votes on issues
- Requests for information
- Sales of, or requests for, folk dance items
For the most part,
this will be unmoderated (or self-governing). That is, we will not
intervene unless asked. The only rule is that you remain courteous. Passionate
discussions are great, sharing your opinions is fine, but please do not
virtually attack, flame, or belittle your discussion members.
Thanks,
Your Administrators (Dan, & Bernie)
