We have temporarily shut down ALL USNA-Net Listservers. Please do not attempt to post ANY messages until you are advised that it is appropriate to do so. In light of the recent events at USNA and the temptation of some members to discuss these events on our Lists, we have been forced to take these drastic measures. Our Lists are intended to share advice and support for Parents of Midshipmen. They are NOT intended to be a NEWS SERVICE where "incidents" at USNA are concerned nor are they a FORUM for discussions of these types of VERY sensitive and PRIVATE matters. Please remember that the parents of the Midshipman involved in the most recent event MAY be members of our lists. To begin any discussion or to even comment on these things is extremely inappropriate. We MUST respect the privacy and personal needs of the Midshipman and his/her parents above all else. We will advise you of the resumption of service.

It was necessary, last evening to suspend our Listservers' operation. This was done to insure the Privacy and well being of a family and Midshipman involved in an accident at the Yard yesterday. Please bear with me as I explain why we took this drastic action. We became aware of the accident shortly after it occurred. The reports to us varied widely and lacked important facts. We did NOT know the name of the Midshipman involved and therefore could not know if his/her parents are members of our list or not. Any mention of this incident might have been the FIRST mention these parents would hear. This is not the kind off information you would want to learn about (third-hand) if "you" were the parents. So we took the only remedy that was available to us. We shut down the Listservers. I want everyone on our lists to realize that WE ARE NOT A NEWS SERVICE. We are a Support Group. GOSSIP and LATE BREAKING NEWS STORIES are never appropriate on our lists. "A Midshipman's (and/or the family's) RIGHT TO PRIVACY are paramount and should be considered prior to ANY reference in a message, especially, in the case of a death, serious medical or personal situation involving a Midshipman or his/her family." (Rule #5) It's time that you all re-read the Rules of Operation on our Web site (www.navy-usna.org) and also the "Welcome Message" that you received when you first signed up. (www.navy-usna.org/welcome.html). Just as you did not jump behind the wheel of a car for the first time without knowing the Rules of the Road, You are REQUIRED to read our Rules of Operation BEFORE you begin participating in our Lists ! With so many new members joining our lists this summer, it will take the cooperation and forethought of every member to keep focused on our Mission and to be there to be supportive in every way - in EVERY message. New members, if you have questions, or you need advice on how to solve any problem, no matter how major or trivial it may seem, that's what we are here for. Enough of the lecture. Full Listserver and Chat Room Operations have been restored.

Today, on both the Plebe and Family Lists, there have been many posts that did NOT need to be sent to our lists. They were comments meant for individuals that should have been sent ONLY to the individual member, and NOT to the Lists. Think about this: If every Plebe parent who did not see their Mid in either our photos or in George's photos, wrote to the list to tell us this, you would have seen over 400 additional emails sent from the Plebe List in your mailbox. I don't think that anyone really wants that kind of volume. When your email does not concern the entire group, please remember to hit the "Reply to Sender" button rather than the "Reply to All" button in your email program. Additionally, one line posts saying things like, "I agree!" also do not belong. If you agree with something that a member wrote, let them know in a private email. Let's remember to keep the volume of mail down by NOT sending unnecessary posts. If you have a question or concern...if you are answering a question of interest to us all...if you have some information that we can all benefit from...if your story or experience will be of help...then send it, PLEASE !! But if your email is meant for one or two, send it directly to them!!

If you have sent a post to the lists and it has not appeared there are three possible reasons for this. First: You sent your post from the WRONG email address. Our lists are email sensitive, NOT name sensitive. So, if you are registered under your home email address, you can not send an email from your work address. You can ONLY post from the email address that you are subscribed to the lists under. Second: You do NOT belong to the List. If you have unsubscribed from one of our lists, say the Plebe list, and decide to send a quick note concerning a plebe issue to this list, it will not go through. Third: Sometimes an email just takes time to be delivered. Our server has to send out hundreds of copies of your email and this process can be slowed up by the time of day, or the volume of traffic at a particular time. DO NOT send your message a second time. Recently we have seen duplicate posts which happens because the member did not think that it "took." If you do not receive a delivery problem from your ISP, your message HAS gone through. If you don't see it in a timely manner, contact Mike or me and we will find out why. And one last, unrelated issue. PLEASE, do not send your messages in Rich Text Format (RTF). If your post does not have the customary signature line at the bottom, it was sent in RTF. Check our Site Index under RTF to find out how to send in Plain Text. Thank you for your co operation.
