[dummycontent]

 

Please read the WMEA Forum Rules and Guidelines before posting for the first time.:

• Search the other posts to see if your topic is already covered.


• Use a meaningful title for your thread.


• Do not use a forum to promote your product, service or business.


• Be civil. Personal differences should be handled through email or IM and not through posts displayed to everyone.


• Stay on topic.


• Do not submit a post that requires readers to download a large attachment.
• In order to be understood by most people, use correct spelling and grammar; avoid slang unless you know the word or phrase will be understood by other members.
• Act in a give and take manner; help others as often as or more than you ask for help.
• Do not use all caps or SHOUT in your posts. In addition, one exclamation point is enough!!!
• When replying to a post, do not quote more from the previous post than you have to.
• Do not post new problems on someone else’s thread and interrupt a topic of discussion.
• Do not use someone else’s thread for a private conversation.
• Watch your sense of humor, posts may be read by people from a variety of backgrounds and ages.
• Do not use a huge and annoying signature, a modest signature is fine, moderators may remove large ones anyway.
• Do not post any information that you want private. Posts should not contain personal, identifiable information or content embarrassing to others.
• Do not post content that violates a copyright.
• Do not post ”empty” or useless responses, such as just ”lol” or ”cool.” Only post when you have something to contribute.
• Write concisely and do not ramble.
• Do not use words like ”urgent” or ”important” in your subject line, be patient.
• Do not chastise newbies.
