Here are some guidelines for using the KinkForAll Mailing List. Naturally, feel free to suggest improvements to anything written here by discussing them on the mailing list itself. Thanks!

 

Subscribing

 

To subscribe to the KinkForAll Mailing List, send an empty email to kinkforall+subscribe@googlegroups.com from the email address you wish to use for the group. Alternatively, you may also subscribe via the Web. For additional information, see How do I subscribe to a group.

 

Although the mailing list is public and anyone may send a message to kinkforall@googlegroups.com at any time, emails from non-subscribers are moderated to prevent spam.

 

Purpose

 

The KinkForAll Mailing List is a public forum to discuss KinkForAll unconferences or to seek help organizing a local KinkForAll unconference from others. It is the canonical forum where event planning decisions are made, chosen for its transparency and accessibility to even technologically underprivileged people.

 

As the KinkForAll community grows, it's important to make sure this global list remains useful for everyone involved. To help ensure this, please do not post unrelated announcements or use the KinkForAll mailing list as a means to advertise or promote anything unrelated to KinkForAll, no matter how worthy or like-minded. If you feel that such a message will be of particular interest to people who are also interested in KinkForAll itself, you're welcome to post to the KinkForAll-Social mailing list instead.
