3) Don't top-post.
(But all three of these statements are a little too terse and
snappy-sounding.)
RGRA = [r]ec.[g]ames.[r]oguelike.[a]dom, the newsgroup you're reading
right now. An experienced Usenetter will tend to recognize a
newsgroup-name abbreviation from the contexr even in a new group, but
it's hardly ask fair to expect that of you and flubsicle.
I can only believe that TH was talking to flubsicle, since the
netiquette blunder (Usenet etiquette blunder -- Usenet is also what
you're reading right now) in question was his, not yours.
The RGRA FAQ is posted once a month; for some time now, the flag-bearer
for this has been Malte Helmert. A google groups search for faq will
turn it up quite quickly. Among other things, it provides a short
discussion of things to do and not do to keep the netiquette "nazis"
(who in reality are quite nice people as long as you follow netiquette,
by the way) in check.
