I'm assuming >this comes out of IRC chats, or something similar. In the case quoted, :: action :: denotes an action; therefore: >Laurie wrote: >> <<MEP 2000 Quote List>> >> :: snorting with laughter while wiping tears out of my eyes :: >> Oh *Thank you* Bons, for posting this. Laurie is thanking Bons *while* she is snorting with laughter and wiping tears out of her eyes. Other ways of denoting this are <snorting with laughter, etc.> <*snorting with laughter, etc.*> IIRC, all three of these have origins in online role-playing games. In IRC chat, the chatter performing the action -- let's say it's Laurie, and that she chats onlne with the nickname ("nick") of "LLaudOTI" -- would type in /me snorts with laughter while wiping tears out of her eyes The chat software will print to everyone else's screens LLaudOTI snorts with laughter while wiping tears out of her eyes Usually when I see ^^^^^^^ on a line, it means that the writer is trying to emphasize part of the previous line. It doesn't always work -- changes in linewrap and display typeface may misalign the carets from the intended characters. Brenda F.

Subject: Admin: Forkni-l rules The rules are going out early this week because I need to keep my phone line open on Monday. McL For information on managing your subscription and on listserv commands, please see Don Fasig's page http://www.geocities.com/Athens/7139/fk-lists.htm 1. No flames on list. FLAMERS MAY BE SET NOPOST. THE NOPOST MAY BE PERMANENT. 2. Please don't quote more than four lines of a previous post in replying. If you have more than one point to answer, then you may quote the relevant four lines for that point also. 3. Limit sigs to 6 lines. This includes all information, decoration quotations and blank lines. Your name and address count as part of the six. If you sign your name on a separate line above the body of text, your name and the blank line or lines between count as part of the six line limit. If you have one of those services that insists on putting an advertising tag on the end of posts, don't worry. I realize you can't control that and it doesn't count as part of your sig. 4. Please don't send to the whole list when you are only talking to the person who wrote the post you are answering. 5. Advertising on list is on a case by case basis. Please consult the listowners, Lisa McDavid, mclisa@m....... or Don Fasig, phase3@g....... for permission. 6. This list is for the discussion of Forever Knight. Cast, crew, staff and producers in connection with what they're doing now or have done in the past are ok. Vampires in general are _NOT_ ok except in relation to Forever Knight. 7. Off-topic posts are not allowed, no matter what they are about or how urgent the warning may appear. If you have an off-topic post which you think should appear on the list, ask one of the owners for permission. 8. The private lives of the cast are not a discussion topic. Occasionally one of the fan club presidents will make an announcement, but other than that, we leave the cast their privacy. 9. Con announcements must come from con officials or a designated liaison and must be kept brief. Cons are only announced on list if there is a connection to FK. 10. Only fan club presidents or other designated spokespeople may make announcements of future projects for FK cast, crew and staff, before said projects have been released or written about in the media. 11. No role-playing on Forkni-l. This includes no character names as pseudonyms or posing as a character. 12. Each subscriber is limited to five posts per day on Forkni-l. I'll be happy to explain the reason for any of the above if asked. Thanks! Cousin McLisa (Lisa McDavid) "That will be Trouble." mclisa@m.......
