Re: [meteorite-list] List Restrictions
Jim, You are right. Art does not need to count posts. But the list can report to Art anyone that is abusing the list, and he could go from there!Thanks, Tom From: "Jim Strope" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "Jim Strope" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Meteorite Central" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] List Restrictions Date: Mon, 26 Aug 2002 15:33:37 -0400 I hate to see any kind of number of posts dictated by Art as that would put a burden on him as to keeping track of everyone which I am sure he has better things to do. I think that 99% of the dealers on this list use restraint and it is too bad that one bad apple can spoil the whole bunch. I do agree that it is reasonable for all of us to limit ourselves to one post per week which would be perfect since ebay auctions generally run for a week. I will be away from email contact from August 30th until September 16th. I will be backpacking in the Sierra Mountains for 10 days and then will be attending the Denver show. So I hope to see many of you at the show to do some partying!!!

Hi John and list, I agree completely with John. Jim Baxter -- Reply Separator Originally From: "John Sinclair" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [meteorite-list] List Restrictions Date: 08/26/2002 12:04pm Hi List, As a meteorite dealer that has had great success from posting and selling with the help of this list, I would like to see Art restrict dealers and anyone else selling, to one 'sale' post per week or 2 per month or something similar. This list was formed for the discussion of meteorites, not for dealers like myself, to use as a free advertising forum. The amount of postings has greatly increased over the past few years and limiting 'sale' postings would benefit us all.

Re: [meteorite-list] List Restrictions
Hello List Members: I agree with John Sinclair 100%. Since I am a meteorite dealer, as well as a collector, I tend to say little and post less. In fact, I can recall only two posts I have made for meteorites. John's suggestion of between 2 and 4 per month should be more than adequate for postings. I have a good relationship with Steve from Chicago but really get tired of being barraged with his emails - many of which are repeats of earlier emails.
