Jeez...

Lighten up!

It was obviously not a real 'chain letter', but more of a satirically
humorous joke that is doing the rounds, and was clearly marked as being
OT.

Or are we forbidden from sharing any humorous posts/urls we come across
with the like-minded folks on the list?

I hope not

I already have 4 or 5 people who insist on forwarding all the stupid little
things they find on the internet that they think is funny and are certain
I'd love to see (and everybody else in their address book)...

I definitly don't need the list to be another source

lol. Talking back to Dvixen? Have you got a deathwish or something? ;) Seriously though,
after being bombarded with spam and forwards most days, I think if you want that you
should really try the forums than here.

This is ShadowRN, not SpamAndChainMailRN.

If you do feel the need to share something that has no relation to
Shadowrun, it goes offlist. I'm sorry you seem to disagree that's how it
should be done, but it has ALWAYS been list policy to keep noise off the
list. If a thread starts [OT] It doesn't need get sent to the list.

ShadowRN has one of the highest signal to noise ratios of any mailing
list I have seen. Let's keep it that way.

Now. Any further discussion on this matter should go to private email.
