This article is from the rec.arts.bodyart Welcome & Netiquette FAQ, by Heidi Anderson with numerous contributions by others.
This "Welcome & Netiquette FAQ" file is posted weekly on
rec.arts.bodyart, and monthly on rec.answers and news.answers. The
tattoo FAQs, alternative bodyart FAQ and body piercing FAQs are posted
monthly in RAB, news.answers and rec.answers. If your system doesn't
retain posts in RAB, check in news.answers or rec.answers.
PLEASE NOTE: The maintainers of some of the FAQs do not post as
frequently as they are supposed to. Be aware of this, and that
the copy you locate may be somewhat out of date.
If you are reading a printed copy of this, or are reading this in any
format other than in the original posted in rec.arts.bodyart,
news.answers or rec.answers, this may not be the most recent copy.
The tattoo and piercing FAQs are approved for distribution through
news.answers and rec.answers -- this means that you will now be able to
retrieve them using the following methods as well. Hopefully the other
FAQ maintainers will also get their FAQs re-approved, so that all r.a.b
FAQs will be automatically archived.
There are several FAQs available for perusal:
