The Old Curiosity Club

[close] 1. Discussion should be robust, but polite. Absolutely no personal attacks, put-downs, or other negativity. We are firmly committed to what Joe said to Pip in Great Expectations: "Ever the best of friends; ain't us, Pip?" If you are ready to participate in this spirit, you are warmly welcomed. If not, this is not the group for you.

2. Enjoy yourself. Anybody who lacks a sense of humor, preferably Dickensian humor, had better find one, or be prepared to be less happy here than we would hope they would be.

3. NO spoilers. Period. If you are not clear what a spoiler is, please read the more detailed explanation in “How This Group Works.”

4. NO self-promotion. Any self-promotion posts will be deleted, and on a second offense the poster removed from the group.
