A comment about postings!

This is not addressed to any of our "regulars" on this message board and is probably more appropriate for new visitors to read.

Recently, we've had a couple of visitors who have placed postings on the message board that were "general Civil War" questions and a book announcement regarding an organization in the Trans-Mississippi. I don't usually remove postings from the site unless they include inappropriate language, insults, are blatantly commercial or "spam".

I will be removing messages which have no connection with Alabama. Something in the posting must be related to Alabama units, battles in which Alabamans participated, commanders from Alabama or commanders of Alabamans, Alabama politicians and politics, etc. (Well, you get the idea!) I will not be enforcing this with an "iron fist", so this does not include messages directed to individuals asking for their email address or requesting that an article which they have lost be "resent" to them.

I hope everybody understands this policy and if you have a question about the appropriateness or want to "make a case" for including a posting on the "board" that does not fit the criteria above, just email me and we'll discuss it.

If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, I'm all ears.
