Hey, I have been reading this newsgroup for a while now, I have actually
participated in this year.  I am leaving now, but have a few suggestions
to you people out there that use this.  Don't take offense, its just
constructive critisim.
[a] have FUN.  Don't let the snooty people out there ruin your FUN.
You can post anything.  You might just get the attention of some
people out there.  Don't let minor rules ruin your FUN, if it is
to bad, someone will tell you (believe me, I now).
[b] be openned minded.   Don't shoot down ideas just because YOU didn't
think of it.  Please keep in mind there is a person on the other end
of that idea, and he has feelings too.  Just because an idea is new
doen't mean it is bad.
[c] Try to help out new characters.  It isn't easy for new chars. to start
up.  Talk to them, give them hints, and help them out more.
[d] Try and let threads flow.  As I said in [b], don't shoot down ideas
so quickly.  If they might make mention of your thread plot or villian,
let it slide and see what develops.  Don't hop all over the person about
my Villian does this...or my plot is this....  You never know what great
ideas can develop, or the FUN that you can have bending and reacting to
others posted situations.
[e] BE MORE FRIENDLY!  I have had a good share of great friends on this
that I will remember, but I also got enough flames to warrant a call to
the Fire Dept.  No one appreciates junk mail.  I'm sorry that I gave
that flame to you (you know who).  I was alittle frazzled.

Well those are my suggestions.  Try them they might just work, then
again they are just ideas.

Good (sniff) Bye (sniff)
