The newsgroups named "rec.arts.anime.*" and its e-mail shadow, <anime-l@listserv.vt.edu>, are the places where general anime discussions should and do take place. For more information about subscribing to ANIME-L and reaching its list owner, please see Other topics which are beyond the scope of this forum include: - fan subtitling and copyright-infringement issues - debate about subtitling versus voice dubbing - debate about letterbox versus pan & scan techniques - conspiracy theories about The Walt Disney Corporation, its subsidiaries, and their handling of the Studio Ghibli films If the thread of discussion appears to be becoming heated or otherwise unsuitable for this list, please take it to private e-mail. When in doubt, please volunteer to do so before you receive complaints from other subscribers or a warning from a list owner. Thank you. -- Michael (<michael@nausicaa.net> 2002/08/31; previous update 1998/10/15) Subscriptions: To subscribe: Send mail to the address LISTSERV@LISTSERV.BROWN.EDU with the message (not subject) "subscribe nausicaa Your Name", where you must replace "Your Name" with your first and last names, of course. Issuing a SUBSCRIBE command to the list server (i.e. listserv) will forward your subscription request to the listowner(s) indicated by the keyword "Owner", who will then process it as soon as humanly possible. HOWEVER: due to the threat of spamming, subscription requests will be __delayed by approximately one week__. We thank you for your understanding and patience. We think the list is worth the wait, and our message archives are publicly available should you wish to catch up with recent discussion. NOTE: in the case that the list is under full moderation (messages from subscribers AND non-subscribers have to be reviewed before they are distributed to other subscribers), then this one week delay might be waived, at the discretion of the list owners. To unsubscribe: Send mail to the address LISTSERV@LISTSERV.BROWN.EDU with the message (not subject) "signoff nausicaa". Your signoff request will be processed immediately by LISTSERV and it will send you confirmation. To contact the list owner(s): Please send correspondence to <nausicaa-request@listserv.brown.edu> or their private e-mail addresses, not <nausicaa@listserv.brown.edu>. Posting administrative requests such as "Please unsubscribe me" or "why am I not receiving e-mail from the list" are likely to annoy the other subscribers who can't help you with such issues anyway. To read the archives of this mailing list: This mailing list's archives are available on the web at http://listserv.brown.edu/nausicaa.html Archives and privacy: Because the archives are available on the web, they are available to the public. This means that non-subscribers can read any messages that you post to this list and determine your name and e-mail address. If this bothers you, then please think carefully about how and what you post to the list. Being on your best behavior goes without saying.
