My last scooter was a 1977 Gold Wing. North Korean terrorists
broke into my garage and spilled the mercury from my quad vacuum
gauge. That's why I stepped down from this election.

Are you kidding? Stressing is what I do for a living! g

Because I'm now over Thirty-ten and have ZERO savings, I'm focussing on
unhealthy stress, heavy smoking and a diet of fat, sugar and
miscellaneous ook. There you have my retirement plan: die early. If I
live past 65, I'm screwed!

Not a bad idea Marc. Who would do the moderating?

That would be the moderators. Volunteers would have to manually approve each

way, but it has to be guided with some human involvement. The moderators
would be included in the Charter, and voted on in the newsgroup voting

It takes people about 2 minutes to get around ANYTHING you want to

It works pretty well. Check out comp.risks as the best possible example
of moderation, with Peter Neumann selecting everything that gets into the
digest. comp.dcom.telecom is another example with somewhat more sloppy
moderation. (Again it's a single moderator handling everything, but he had
a brain aneurism five or six years ago and has not really been the same
since).

A weirder example is rec.audio.high-end, which used to be moderated by my
friend Tom Kreuger. He burned out on the process and turned it over to
a whole team of people, some of whom are good and some of whom are not, and
there isn't as consistent a policy as a result.

There are also some moderated mailing lists which have two tiers of membership.
Long-time members get to post directly, while folks who have not been on for
so long have to have all posts approved by the moderator. This actually works
very well to reduce moderator burnout.

That's the point of moderation: there is a human being in the loop.

It can work well, but it depends on your goal. It can be great for a
business or a scientific (technical) oriented group where the goal is
JUST a transfer of information. Not a lot of fun but it does serve a
purpose.

Moderated groups for recreational purposes, tend to fail, in my opinion.
Yes they still have people posting, but, depending on the moderators,
and the guidelines are so subjective, can be so stifling that you lose
most of the posters. Some of those posters are good to lose, they are
just trouble makers, but you also lose some of the most fun and
entertaining people.

R.a.p. is a little of both. Yes it is a technical site to help people
learn the ins and outs of recording and production techniques, but it is
also a group of people that like to bs about other stuff too. This irks
some people to the nth degree. Others welcome it. How are the moderators
going to reconcile these opposing views?
