FREECYCLE ETIQUETTE
1) NO POLITICS, NO SPAM AND NO MONEY Two strikes & you're out.
2) SUBJECT LINE
Use these phrases:
OFFER: old couch
TAKEN: old couch
WANTED: old couch. [Please use this one sparingly]
ADMIN: new idea
3) CAN WE USE FREECYCLE TO FIND NEW HOMES FOR PETS? Yes, keep it legal & be lovingly careful.
4) KEEP IT FREE.
5) NO TRADING PLEASE. You can find plenty of trading sites through yahoogroups or can try http://www.craigslist.com
6) FYI: RESPONSES GO ONLY TO OFFERER. It keeps down the sheer # of e-mails.
7) PICK UP. arrange as you like, generally, 1st responded, 1st serve, if a charity responds, you may want to give them a 1st shot.
TIPS TO ORGANIZE ALL OF THE NEW E-MAILS YOU ARE GETTING:
a) CREATE A SEPARATE E-MAIL FOLDER & AUTOMATICALLY HAVE FREECYCLE STUFF GO TO IT. Create a separate folder in your Outlook Express & have Freecycle stuff sent to it automatically with a new rule under tools/message rules/mail/
b) SET TO DAILY DIGEST OR NO E-MAILS. Realize, too, that you can set your personal preferences on the webpage (under members).
