Well put Phil, and I think that if everyone actually reads the "rules" (suggestions) that Karl posted they would see that they make a lot of sense. The suggestion still allow for OT post and more than enough "fun" - they just give people who don't want to have any fun a heads up so they can delete before becoming offended.
 
I have been on another list for years, a list much like this, lots of information with some fun mixed in for good measure. I would sometimes receive upwards of 150 messages a day! Well, a couple of the 1400 members on the list started complaining about the "noise" and effectively killed the list, they took out the "human" side and soon there after all the tech stuff just got boring. There are only a limited number problems or questions that you can have about a certain car, after constantly rehashing the same info, with no added "humor" it just died... Now all that's left is about 5 post a day asking about tire size and factory paint colors.....

I knew all this was coming.  I've been laughing all day.  This is first a Chevelle List & a fun forum.  And we do get off list just like we're BS'ing, etc.  But it's fun & interesting.  Just keep religion & politics out.  I use the List for technical advice & enjoyment.  I don't have the computer knowledge to follow that long list of email rules nor do I want my life to be that rigid.  I make mistakes & miss gears on occassion but I try to be courteous.  Lighten up guys.  Keep it FUN!!
