10. Please refrain from HIWIH posts

HIWIH (Here Is What I Have) posts are generally to be avoided in any binary group, as they are not really a very good use of bandwidth. In a HIWIH post, a poster ups all the parts that they have of an incomplete episode, along with an appeal in the subject line to fill those parts that they are missing, making it very like v-spam. Essentially it is a repost of an episode, but guaranteed incomplete before it even starts, thus pretty useless.
