================================================ Subject: NEW TO THE LIST? THEN READ THIS FOR HELPFUL INFO From: "]\\[][G}{T§TÖ®]v[" To: Date: Sun 21 Oct 2001 06:37:07 -0400 ================================================ Welcome to the Creed Mailing list... you are here because at some point, you asked to be subscribed to it... don't deny it, it really happened. Be prepared to receive several hundred emails a day. Some days are slower than others, so you may only receive 50-100 emails. Some days you may receive 500+. During slower periods, we will discuss other topics and/or issues, but single-line posts are usually frowned upon. We tend to mark these un-related posts with NCR. Any message marked with NCR means : Not Creed Related. So if you're here JUST for the Creed stuff, go ahead and delete those emails, but I assure you, most of the discussions are fun and you're more than welcome to join in at any time! We're all pretty open here. Some of us have been on the list for a few years, some a few days, but we accept everyone, as long as you're tolerant of each other and are here to have fun! If you want to check out stats on people on the list, be sure to visit http://www.geocities.com/creedlisters. Add your own while you're at it! If you ever have any questions, feel free to ask the list, we'd be more than happy to help! Just a few quick notes though: - The list will not accept binary attachments (pictures or files)... and most people will not like being sent attachments unsolicited... so please check with a person first - The list has a 250-line limit per post... counting all headers. HTML (Rich Text) e-mail is not always a good idea for here... it may look nice, but the list will almost triple the number of lines in that post before sending it, cutting down the length you are allowed to around 50 lines... plain text works best. - Creed is not touring at the moment, but will be soon. - The third album, "Weathered", has a release date of November 20th, 2001. - Singles off the currently-unreleased album are available by downloading the Creed Pager, which you can get from http://www.creed.com - Please try to refrain from sending virus warnings or e-mail forwards to the list... especially if you have not confirmed the mail at a reputable source, like http://www.snopes.com. - Problem with your computer or problems with setting yourself up with the list, feel free to mail me (admin@isyourgod.cjb.net) and I'll do everything I can to help... to keep it off the list more than anything else. - Creed does not post to this mailing list. If you'd like to get ahold of them post on the bulletin boards, as they've been known to read those, or mail them at: Creed c/o Hanson Management 15S. Orange Avenue Orlando, Florida USA 32801 And last but not least...we're all here because we love Creed. A lot of us have made friends on this list. Just because it may seem kinda of cliquey, doesn't mean we won't accept you! We love making new friends, so introduce yourself, and jump on in!
