[casual_games] List Charter Updated

[Brian Robbins]

In response to a few recent messages, the list charter has been
updated. Please make sure that you adhere to these few simple rules
when posting to the list.

For those not inclined to re-read everything, the promotion clause has
been updated to include not just games, but services as well. Please
remember that this is a discussion list and not an easy means to
advertise to casual developers.

I also added a reminder for anyone on digest to trim their posts and
modify the subject lines although we haven't had much problems with
that.

Thanks Everyone!

===================================

The purpose of the Casual_Games mailing list is to facilitate
communication among casual game developers. This list is the place to
share ideas and discuss all aspects of casual game development with
your peers.

While nearly all topics are open for discussion there are a few things that
we specifically discourage:

 * Do not post derogatory remarks about any individual or company.
Criticism is a valid method of communication, but personal attacks or
unsubstantiated claims will not be tolerated.

 * Do not use this list to promote your latest game or your services.
Games and services may be mentioned as a means to drive discussion on
particular points, but this list is not to be used as an medium for
advertising.

 * Do not post job postings to this list. We realize that many
companies are hiring, and many people here may be looking. We have
created a separate mailing list to serve exactly that need. If you are
looking for a job, or have a position you would like to post, please
do so through the OnlineGameJobs mailing list:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/OnlineGamesJobs/

Finally, just a reminder on list etiquette. If you are subscribed via
digest please remember to adjust the subject line and trim out all but
the relevant post when responding back to the list.
