1.8. I'm only a beginner; should I just shut up and listen?
Victor Eijkhout, in the FAQ for rec.arts.dance, asks this question
and answers it as follows: "No. Tell stories about your experiences, or
post questions and listen to the--no doubt conflicting--answers you'll
get." (But read this FAQ first.)
If you're new to the Net, it's a good idea to look around at
various newsgroups and get a feel for the way things are done. There are
virtually no rules, but there *are* customs. On the news.answers group you
will find a number of useful documents for familiarizing yourself with the
Net. I particularly recommend:-
A Primer on How to Work With the Usenet Commmunity
Answers to Frequently Asked Questions about Usenet
Hints on writing style for Usenet
Rules for posting to Usenet
(I said there were virtually no rules; that last document would be better
named, "Guidelines for posting....")
