Treat others as you would like to be treated. Aggressive behaviour, condescension, rudeness, racism, homophobia, bigotry, cultural insensitivity and sexism are not acceptable.

[/fusion_li_item][fusion_li_item icon=””]

Do not “reply-­all” unless you are continuing a discussion with the whole list.

Be aware of respecting others’ time constraints (for example, don’t write “thank you” or “noted” when replying all).

[/fusion_li_item][fusion_li_item icon=”fa-times fas”]

Do not trade insults with other users on the list. If a posting offends you, raise it directly with the person posting off the list or bring it to the attention of the list administrator.
