A Message from the Moderators
With the growth of the Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) Yahoo Group, several
members have asked that guidelines for the group be clarified, to help
preserve the quality of communication that has made this group a
useful resource. We ask that you read and adhere to the suggestions
below, which we will re-post monthly and update as needed:
PURPOSE
This group is an announcement and discussion group for those
interested in LDN, and who wish to be notified about updates to the
Low Dose Naltrexone website (www.lowdosenaltrexone.org).
SEEKING INFORMATION
We strongly recommend that before seeking advice or answers from the
LDN Yahoo Group, please consult the official LDN website,
www.lowdosenaltrexone.org (aka www.ldninfo.org), a rich source of
accurate information regarding LDN, edited by David Gluck, MD. This
will save time for all, prevent redundant messages in the Yahoo
Group, and help maintain the accuracy and timeliness of information
shared.
SENDING MESSAGES
Messages sent by members to lowdosenaltrexone@yahoogroups.com will
by default be sent to the entire group. (Replies will be sent to the
individual being replied to.)
Keeping that in mind, please make sure that your message:
* Does not contain spam, advertising, or any form of solicitation
* Is not likely to be offensive to other members of the group (e.g.,
does not express aggression toward other members, use offensive
language, etc.)
* Does not contain blatantly off-topic (non-LDN) information or requests
* Does not contain information meant for one person
* Does not contain large attachments or inclusion of multiple prior
messages.
** Violation of any of the above may result in being banned from the
group without warning. **
Message Etiquette:
* When responding to messages, please delete all prior information/emails,
leaving only the sentence/paragraph you're responding to.
* When writing e-mail, please keep the number of messages you address
to the entire LDN group to a minimum.
* Please avoid requesting information already available on
www.lowdosenaltrexone.org.
Off-topic Posts:
It is natural for discussion, on occasion, to stray into areas tangential
to LDN. Discussion of a topic related to LDN can be a valid use of this
discussion group -- as long as the topic does actually relate in some way
to group members' use of LDN.
In practice, members are rarely banned for making the occasional off-topic
post, unless the nature of the post is offensive to other members.
However, if an extended discussion (more than three messages) ensues that
is not relevant to LDN use, please take it somewhere else (e.g., e-mailing
one another directly, or finding a more appropriate forum).
Please be considerate to general readers of the group who must wade through
off-topic discussions in order to find something relevant to LDN.
Moderation:
In our ongoing efforts to maintain the quality of the LDN Yahoo Group, some users' posts may be moderated. If posts do not appear in a timely manner, please be patient before sending another copy. Anyone trying to circumvent moderation will be banned from the group without warning.
MODIFYING MEMBER OR EMAIL PREFERENCES
Go to http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/lowdosenaltrexone and
select "sign in." After you've signed in, select "edit membership" at
the top of the page. This will access your membership page where you
can change your preferences:
* To Stop Receiving General Group E-mails (but still receive official
messages concerning updates to the LDN Website):
Under "Message Delivery" select "Special Notices - Receive only
important email notices from the group moderator."
* To Reduce the Number of E-Mails You Receive:
Under "Message Delivery" select "Daily Digest" (this gathers multiple
e-mails into a single e-mail to reduce the volume).
* To Leave the Group:
Select "Leave Group" in the bottom right-hand corner. (Or, to
unsubscribe by e-mail, send a message to
lowdosenaltrexone-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com.)
After any change, select "Save Changes" at the bottom of the page.
FINAL THOUGHTS
A warm welcome to our group -- we sincerely hope that you will be one
of those who benefit from LDN.
If you have questions or feedback regarding these guidelines, please
write to lowdosenaltrexone-owner@yahoogroups.com (given the volume
of e-mail we receive, please pardon delays in responding).
Thank you for helping spread the word about LDN and being part of
this supportive community!
