This is a regular posting of the charter of uk.games.video.handheld. Please
direct any enquiries to the newsgroup.
===============================================
Charter of uk.games.video.handheld (Not Moderated)
This group is for the discussion of gaming on dedicated handheld
consoles and other handheld devices with gaming capability such as
mobile phones and handheld computers.
Links to non-commercial web sites related to handheld gaming are
welcome, but should not be repeated more than once a month.
Reviews, hints, tips and cheats are welcome, however spoilers should be
protected with appropriate spoiler space. Long reviews or solutions (100
lines or more) may be better offered as a URL. Particular care should be
taken with posts about games not yet officially released in the UK, so
as not to spoil the game for UK readers.
Discussions about piracy, "warez", backups or other such activities are
forbidden. Discussion of copying or emulating games which are
commercially available is forbidden. Discussions about the morality and
legality of such actions tend to become quickly inflammatory, and should
be avoided.
"MCIBTYC" (My Computer/Console Is Better Than Your Computer/Console)
flamewars are dull, pointless and therefore to be avoided at all costs.
Advertising
-----------
Advertising (which includes wanted adverts and game trade lists) is
forbidden, with these exceptions:
Adverts of no more than four lines, which are part of the poster's
regular signature, and which are not the main reason for the post, are
allowed.
Owners of web sites with information relevant to the newsgroup may post,
not more than once every 3 months, an advert for their site, providing
that the site is not used to sell, nor advertise for sale, any goods or
services. The site may contain "banner"-style adverts if it is beyond
the control of the site's owner to remove them.
Cross-Posting
-------------
Cross-posting in general is discouraged as it may invite postings which
do not conform to this charter.
Binaries & Formatting
---------------------
Encoded binaries (e.g. pictures, compressed files, etc.) are forbidden.
Cryptographic signatures (e.g. PGP) may be used where authentication is
important and should be as short as possible.
Posts must be readable as plain text. HTML, RTF and similarly formatted
messages are prohibited. To see how to make your newsreader comply with
this, read <http://www.usenet.org.uk/ukpost.html>.
Warning
-------
Anyone posting contrary to this charter may be reported to their
"postmaster" and/or Service Provider.
