Champions List
The Champions Listserv is for those whose primary focus is Show Fancier - Exhibitor for the American Cocker Spaniel, active or retired. We're here to share experiences and support those with the same focus as our own through open discussions. To date, our list of members not only live coast to coast in the U.S., but we have members in Canada, Brazil, South Africa, Australia, England and other countries. Our hope is to one day have members from many different countries, sharing this wealth of information among ourselves. This membership includes new fanciers and exhibitors all the way to retired fanciers as well as fancier/Judges.
To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the
Champions Archives. (The current archive is only available to the list members.)
To post a message to all the list members, send email to champions@cockers.com .

List Guidelines
This Listserv is for those of us whose Primary focus is Show Fancier/Exhibitor for the American Cocker Spaniel. We're here to share experiences and support those with the same focus as our own through open discussion. The opinions of the membership are not necessarily those of the owner/moderators of the list and we are not to be held liable for any misinformation that is quoted on this list. The List Owner reserves the right to terminate membership at any time without prior notice and without giving any reason, including any associated materials such as (and not limited to) material supplied to the Photo Gallery on Cockers.com. All posts are copyrighted by the author and one must get permission to pass this on, either in writing or verbal, prior to doing so. The Membership List is owned by the List Owner and cannot be reproduced for anyone else or for any other purpose, unless permission is first obtained from the List Owner. This includes published listserv addresses and names of listserv members.
This list is not for personal conflicts with another member; do that
on your own time. As the List grew, we have decided that there
should be a few rules which we need to adhere to in order to
prevent the loss of unlimited usage. If not, eventually we might have
to limit the number of messages sent out over the listserv. Please
read carefully! File them for future reference. Be considerate, even
if it means taking a little more of _your_ time.
#1. To "Post" to the list, please use the address (Champions@cockers.com).
Your message will then go out to each and every member on
the list.
#2. To "Reply" to an individuals' message, please use the membership
list provided. This "reply" method is for response between individuals
or simple one liners, "Congrats!" or "Me Too". Anything that is pertinent
to the entire group, by all means use the listserv address. Remember
to _delete_ a portion of the previous message that you are replying to!
Use only a statement or two to refresh our memories.
#3. To "Forward" something over the listserv, please "delete" the excess
info. We don't need to know who all received it before us. Especially
those who get the "Digest", have to scroll down quite a lot already.
#4. Should a "heated" discussion arise between individual list members,
one private warning addressed to each individual, should stop the
discussion over the Listserv. A second warning will be the "final" warning.
Any future incidence will be an automatic removal from the List. This
is not to imply that we cannot have different views on any given subject,
but we need to be respectful and tolerant of those who have different
views than our own. This Listserv is made up of individual opinions.
Use the individual membership list provided to carry forward any
heated discussion.
#5. Tuesdays are "For Sale" days where items may be listed for sale
on this day only.
#6. Attachments cannot be sent over the list as this puts too much of
a strain on the server. This includes photos or attachments of ANY
kind. In lieu of attachments, we have made another page on the
Cockers.com web site where you may upload your own photos in the Gallery.
#7. Do not "post" a private email over the list without permission from
the author of that private "post". In recapping a topic, please do not
use the names and addresses of the original writers when including
their posts.
#8. No naming of names (dogs or people), unless it is about you
or your dog. Keep the topic in the abstract.
#9. Inappropriate language is not acceptable over the List.
Any post can be written without explicit language.
#10. From now on, you will be doing your own changing of your own
subscription. For this, you will need your password. It should be
sent to you on a monthly basis, but if you need it, here is what you
do to get it.
