Engineering, procurement, construction & management of crude oil refineries.
With the rash of new ids and new posters , it may be appropriate to offer some suggestions before they commence down the Winfield Lane.
Heres hoping for a more educated and frugal use of our cyberspace.
These are not AG rules, but common sense stuff, Unfortunatly from time to time the lack of it plagues our precious hub.
Do your homework
Go back and read the posts...(avoid the brawls that have broken out...if you can step that delicatly}/ Educate yourself with the history and personalities....Dont ask dumb questions that have been gone over many times before. Dont be afraid to ask when you dont understand. The long term guys are all very knowledgeable.(??????lol)
Be respectful
Our nerves and wallets are without resources due to the long period of no trading, Avoid being a know it all take charge guy out of the chute. Earn your stripes and dont be challenging the old guard immediatly. In short, earn your respect and stripes. Introduce yourself and say why you joined, beneath all the grissle,we are just ordinary people trying to get by and you will find a warmer welcome
The Agoracom 6 rules of use
Find and observe them. we as hub leaders can no longer allow any deviation from them.We can from time to time leave room for interpretation. The spirit of the rules is that we use this for wwf discussion purposes and related subjects, We have a strong working relationship with staff and hope to lead the way here on finding solutions to problems
Bashing and personal attacks
Zero tolerance. This hub is a graveyard for young mudslingers. Consider yourself on probation whilst in the mail room.. Hub leaders will be strict and merciless should you not adhere
That said...we roll out the red carpet to new members that are here to know or learn about Winfield
