3. Don't


Discussions of articles go in AURd, not AUR.

Don't post non-articles, such as messages from mailing lists or WWW page.
Don't post your own article.  Don't crosspost AUR articles.

Don't use AUR or AURd for advertisements, web site promotion (even if
nonprofit), general announcements or appeals (including virus warnings and
personals), other spam, tests, or general irrelevancies.  On the other
hand, if you find the article in one of the taboo categories to be
interesting or funny then by all means repost it.

If you substantively reply to or follow up an article posted in AUR, be
sure your article is going to the original newsgroup, not AUR.  Otherwise
you look like an idiot.
