Default The end of R.A.H-E

We have a few options, and I will lay them out.

1. Close the newsgroup.

2. Open the newsgroup.

3. Self-moderate the newsgroup.

4. Find a new moderator.


Please let me know what you all think. Suggestions, comments,
theorizing, whatever: This thread is open to everyone, and is
constrained to the topic of "the fate of rec.audio.high-end", rather
than the general purpose of the newsgroup. The thread will close
April 1, 2017, unless there is an active discussion going on.


There is no longer an active discussion on this thread.

However, there is substantially more traffic in the newsgroup.

Here is my decision for the next period of r.a.h-e:

1. The newsgroup will remain moderated.

2. The Guidelines are suspended.

3. I shall generally approve any message that is sent, unless it
appears to be obviously spam or gratuitously objectionable.
In particular, I won't be checking for proper quoting format,
or asking people to edit overly-long messages, or calming
flames.

4. When I get too tired of it, or someone else wants to do it,
we'll talk.

Your humble obedient overlord,

Thanks for the not inconsiderable time that you must spend moderating
R.A.H-E. I appreciate it.
