How they succeed, how they fail, what the people in them get out of them and how they keep them going? Now you can find out! People of all varieties of polyamorous relationships have joined this newsgroup to discuss their experiences, their thoughts, and their feelings about this unusual way of living. You can learn about the things you're curious about with this simple guideline: . . . . . . . . . . . *DON'T BLOODY DRIVE US AWAY WITH YOUR DAMN QUESTIONS!* Sorry to be rude, but it needed to be said. A great many people posting are not poly and would like to know more about it. This truly is a good opportunity for those people to find out what they want to know, but posting questions is not a good method! Mostly, we've come here to discuss these things with other poly people, not to appear on some sort of 24-hour phone-in chat show; if we find that to be the mood of the newsgroup, we'll all just leave, and no-one will gain. Let me recommend instead spending some time simply sitting back and watching where the discussion goes: there's lots of fascinating things to discuss and I'm sure they'll all come up before too long. cheers, -- __ \/ o\ paul@hedonism.demon.co.uk Got a Linux strategy? \ / /\__/ Paul Crowley http://www.hedonism.demon.co.uk/paul/ /~\
