ROG-L (Really Old Guy Mailing List) is an internet mailing list started in 1997 by Kronette and devoted to the Highlander character Methos, who debuted in 1995. "ROG" stands for Really Old Guy. The list became highly active after the episodes Comes A Horseman and Revelation 6:8 were broadcast.

From Chelle's Nightstand:

The ROG List - This is the home page for the Really Old Guy mailing list, started by Maygra and now under the stewardship of Suze and Kady Mae.[1]

After it migrated to Yahoo Groups the description read:

ROG is a list that tries to do the impossible, to have slash, gen, and het fans co-exist on-line in self-policed Methos worship. Content ranges from the inane to the sublime. There is a great deal of historical list culture, as explained in the FAQ. Any and all discussions relating to Methos in specific, Highlander in general, are welcome. By subscribing, you are saying that you are a legal adult.
