hey All, first off, let me simply apologize for my seeming absence over the past few weeks; Not only do I have a very busy life outside of this list, <smile> but have also had some seriously annoying internet issues over the past two weeks or so as well…
So I do hope you'll forgive the fact that some list processes are taking, and have taken, a bit longer to complete than expected. We appreciate your patience! <smile> Anyway, I've adapted the list guidelines and felt it was appropriate to post them again now. Here they are, and do have a lovely rest of your weekend!… Smiles, Cara :) What is Off-topic for MacVisionaries? • Non-Mac-related postings • For Sale postings. We're working on a site area(s) for this, so for the moment, please do keep this sort of thing off the list and email me privately if you have items for sale. • One line responses such as 'thank you' 'I agree' or 'Me too.' This also includes simply chiming in to second someone else. Unless you have some info which is something you really feel others would need to, or would very much like to read, a contribution of silence is a good one. • Ranting / 'yelling with your keyboard' If you have an issue you'd like to make known that bothers you, please do take the time before posting to arrange your thoughts into a coherent, useful message for others to read, which (when possible) contains links / valid info for others to locate if they wish • Notes asking for people to follow you on Twitter or be your friend on FaceBook or other social Networking sites. Including your Twitter / Facebook etc info in your signatures is fine and even encouraged. • Notes asking people to contact you on Skype or asking if you can contact someone on Skype. If someone needs assistance, please write them off list or have them write you. We're working on a Skype directory of users willing to help people, so for now, please keep this off the list. As in the above, do feel free, however, to include your Skype / chat info in your signature files if you so choose. • Notes with no answers in them. I.E. If you're really not sure how you can help someone with a question they've asked, then simply don't post. Let someone who does know, or has a good idea help that person. there's no harm in letting a question rest for a while if there's no immediate answer. • Posts asking about list policy, posts asking if your post got through, or test messages. Do not post these sorts of things to the list. Write me off-list instead. What is On-Topic for MacVisionaries? • Anything Mac-related! :) • Any questions from new / experienced users regarding anything at all on their Macs or Apple products. • Any actual answers to such above questions. If you have a guess, try it yourself first. If it works, then by all means, post it as an answer to the list! :) • Any warnings, or things to avoid doing which cause VO to not speak or crash. (or cause problems with a user's access tech) Preferably, it would also be nice to post a work-around for a problem if you know it. • Any news articles, Web Sites, or blog entries which are Mac / Apple related, or that have some 'real' involvement with such. I.E. is there a real honest connection between the two? Is the item you're posting really going to interest or impact a Mac / VO user? • Your own Mac / VO / Apple experiences! Feel free to post anything that you've experienced or are experiencing (good or bad) having to do with your Mac use, (with or without VO) your use of Apple products, or your experiences with Apple or at an Apple store. • Questions or concerns about a future Mac or Apple purchase. Feel free to ask anything you like about Apple / Mac before you buy! :) --- Follow me on Twitter! https://twitter.com/ModelCara View my Online Portfolio at: http://www.onemodelplace.com/CaraQuinn --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
