Tom, well done for putting your head above the parapet.
I wholly agree as a digest reader.

>1) Ettiquette point: 

Also ALWAYS use the subject tags commonly: 

[FT][FB1][FB2]
[SG2]
[DS2]

[OT] - only if you MUST

on average 50% of posts dont use tags, arrgh!

>2) Focus

Agreed, I really only want to read game related material
and the use the subject tags to filter out [FT] related
posts (this isn't a chat room ;-)

3) Politically Correct Posts

No I'm not an advocate of PC, but there are certain
hot subjects that always cause problems:

racial and occupational stereotypes 
sexism (het & homo)
religion
politics
gun control
patriotism
...

and which generally have little relation to point 2) above.
