This faq has been slightly reformatted by Valadan. All information is still present, I have merely cleaned it up a little for web viewing. Enjoy!

  4. Isn't sex with other species illegal and/or immoral?

    Legality varies upon locale. In some countries it is illegal, in others it is not. In the United States, it is legal in some states and illegal in others. Consult your local library for further information that might pertain to you.

    Morality is often a religious issue, varying from encouraged to prohibited. Your mileage will vary accordingly.

  5. Do people that post articles here really have sex with other species?

    Some few do, quite a few do not. Hang around for a while and you should be able to ferret out those who are for real, from those who are not.

  6. I want to post an article here but I'm afraid to use my real address.

    Post anonymously. Send mail to [email protected] for information on that anonymous server. Further information on that, and other anonymous remailers you could use, can be found in the newsgroup: alt.privacy.anon-server.

  7. I want to send/receive pictures on alt.sex.bestiality.

    No. Best say your prayers before you even think of it. Binaries belong in an appropriate binary newsgroup. Bestiality pictures can be found and posted on: alt.binaries.pictures.erotica.bestiality and on alt.binaries.pictures.tasteless. Pictures of animals can be found on alt.binaries.pictures.animals and alt.binaries.pictures.erotica.animals.

  8. I want to read and/or write stories on alt.sex.bestiality.

    Hang around a bit and you can read some. You could ask for them to be posted, but you are as likely to be rewarded with a flame, then as with a story.

    Feel free to post on-topic stories here. Please keep them in TEXT format. The majority of people reading this newsgroup do not necessarily have the same hardware/software combination you use, so use a format that can be read by all, rather then using a particular word processor or compression format that some could not process.

  9. How can I meet some of the people here?

    Email has been known to work wonders.

    There are also annual gatherings. ZooCon is the prime example. ZooCon has been publicly advertised here. Begun in 1993, ZooCon 1996 will be the fourth and forthcoming ZooCon.

  10. Can I obtain data from times that predate my arrival here?

    There are both sites and individuals that archive materials pertaining to topics on this newsgroup, as well as archiving the newsgroup itself. Two FTP sites that accept anonymous FTP and have some archives online are: ftp.netcom.com cd /pub/be/bestzoo/ ftp.vnet.net cd /pub/users/thezoo/ Specific email requests for information can also be directed to: [email protected] [email protected]

  11. I just saw a flame/crosspost/binary/troll and I want to respond to it.

    Refrain. All too many do respond, and all too many do so poorly. Lurk on these subjects for a few months, and reference the ancient history that shows what is appropriate for the different genres.

    ASBest had a history of elegant responses, which has been in sad decline as of late regarding overall ratio of good responses to such provocations. Don't judge by what you see now, most of the older class acts departed in years past, or lurk now themselves. The newer folk that do respond often do not come close to doing justice to that creed.

  12. I have gained a lot from ASBest, what can I do to repay this debt?

    Contibute to organizations, be they directly related such as Zoophiliac Outreach Organization, or indirectly related to people, but related to animals; such as the SPCA, your local pound, or any of a number of other groups.

    Take a newbie under your wing and mentor him. It's a dirty job, but someone has to do it. Do it well and it will be a quick job with benefit to all.

  13. Someone just delurked, so I want to post an article saying, "Hi, and welcome to ASBest".

    Don't. News is a many to many medium, this is not the Forest. Send those messages by email. This is a newsgroup for discussion, not for greetings.
