OTRSS : Home SkeptiCon SkeptiLog SkeptiChat : Subscribe Back

The SkeptiChat mailing list is a free subscription service, an email discussion group for everyone with a brain, but especially for people such as those:

who doubt what they've been told,
who tend to chat and ramble,
who favor humor over gravity,
who are too crazy to value reality but too sane to ignore it, and
who may have been or are about to be kicked off other discussion groups and mail lists, especially for being "off-topic". Yuk.

Joining & Leaving:

Joining, participating in, and leaving SkeptiChat are simple processes - but ONLY those who have subscribed may participate in the discussions. Subscription is automatic and free; approval is automatic; leaving is painless. You may choose to receive all messages as they are sent, or to receive a regular digest of discussions. Here's how:

click ---> AUTOMATIC (un)SUBSCRIBE & INFO <--- click

Info & Archives:

Of course SkeptiChat is archived; instructions on accessing the archives, and other stuff about SkeptiChat, are available: click here

Help:

The SkeptiChat listmanager software is actually majordomo@lists.sonic.net. MAJORDOMO is quite a sophisticated program - for help, click here. And if you're really stuck, you can always beseech the listowner for aid & mercy. Be sure your bribes, er, love-offerings, are at hand. Still having problems? See HOW TO UNSUBSCRIBE. Ciao.

Dealing With Dissenters
Generally, this list will NOT be moderated, controlled, restricted, constrained - with the following caveats:

Don't be boring - spams regarding money, sex and/or beliefs are usually boring;
Don't be vicious - no death-threats, ad hominem attacks, name-calling, etc;
Listowner reserves the right to bounce anyone abusing this forum.

In other words: Advertising generally isn't appreciated. Un-civil conduct towards other participants won't be tolerated. Long, haranguing screeds don't belong here, but short harangues are just fine. Tedious diatribes and flame-wars belong elsewhere. We're here to have fun, folks.

Due to legal restrictions in some jurisdictions regarding unauthorized forwarding of emails, let it be known that by subscribing to SkeptiChat, you are explicitly granting permission for any message you post here to be forwarded.

At SkeptiChat we encourage words and ideas that may or may not be welcome elsewhere. The more people who participate here, the livelier and more entertaining this forum will be. Enjoy. Or we'll have to torture you.

ADDENDUM: MESSAGE FORMAT - - - - - I humbly ask that a few space-saving format standards be met: - Please, plain ASCII only, no HTML fanciness. - Please, no attachments or other MIME extensions. - Please, quote just enough to maintain continuity/relevance. 100 lines of quotes followed by a 1-line comment, SUCKS! - Please, don't post real long items - post excerpts and their URLs, or privately email'em to the listowner for handling. Too many violations, and I'll be forced to turn up the voltage on your implants to uncomfortable/dangerous levels. [bzzt] You have been warned. [bzzt]
