Subject: [1-5] Are there any Masonic Chat Rooms?

Yes. There is an IRC channel on the EFnet servers named #FreeMasons.

Subject: [1-5] What about CompuServe, AOL, Prodigy, GEnie, Delphi, and other commercial services?

CompuServe and AOL in a reorganization has discontinued their discussion groups. For many years, this was probably the most exciting online Masonic venue. CompuServe was officially closed in 2009 although many thought it had died several years earlier.

Subject: [1-6] What is alt.freemasonry for?

Alt.freemasonry is intended for general discussion of Masonry and related topics. Almost any question regarding Masonry is welcome there. Both Masons and non-Masons are welcome. Like all unmoderated newsgroups, however, the venue is frequently overrun with spammers and irrelevant cross-postings having no connection to Freemasonry and no purpose other than disruption.

Subject: [1-7] What is alt.masonic.members for?

Alt.masonic.members is intended to be a home for USENET Masons to talk about the Craft, though non-Masons are welcome to participate. The focus in a.m.m., however, is on discussion among people already familiar with Masonry or people who are Masons, so questions about becoming a Mason or what the York Rite is would be inappropriate (feel free to post such questions in alt.freemasonry instead).

Of course, neither newsgroup (or the mailing list) is considered Tiled and non-Masons read both regularly, so Brothers should not post anything that they would not normally discuss with non-Masons.

Discussion on Co-Masonry (a form of Masonry which includes both men and women) is welcome in either alt.freemasonry or alt.masonic.members.

Subject: [1-8] What is alt.masonic.demolay for?
