I'm surprised it took that long. He was probably busy flaming the Nim
boards.

I'd love to have heard Mark's CW operation during a
Sweepstakes 'test. I'll bet is sounded like someone falling down a
flight of stairs with a keyer and a Scrabble game.

I suspect the reason why the .moderated group is dead is due to the
'standards' the moderators have decided to implement.

For example, I was recently banned from the .moderated group.

My "crime"? I had 3 rejected postings in a period of 4 months.


That's just weird.

When your posts were rejected, were you advised of the specific reason
for rejection? Given an opportunity to explain, or revise the
offending post? And where was the 'three strikes' rule documented - I
read over the charter just after the group was established, and I
don't recall that being stated.

I'm all for moderated groups, normally - they provide valuable
filtering of off-topic and malicious posts. And I agree with you - if
the moderators are practising abject censorship instead of moderation,
then it becomes a forum consisting only of those who share similar
thoughts of what is appropriate and what is not. In other words, a
closed group.

No thanks. I'd rather that I remain the judge of what I believe to be
appropriate, rather than delegate that task to a group of net nannies!

The perverts have rein--however, what is new, the same thing has
happened to my city ... :-(


Besides, it seems that policy was not an interest, it was just a "stated
ruse" to allow the CW Proclaimers to have voice and attempt to maintain
control.


sadly that seemed to have been the whole root of of that issue


Sadly they grew upset that folks who weren't code advocates found a
voice on policy, so they created a moderated group to exclude the no-
coders. After the initial back-slapping, they found that they didn't
have much to say to each other.


No it was not created to keep no-coders out. Anyone who is polite can
easily join and participate in the moderated group regardless of their
opinions on code. In this group it was impossible to hold any sort of
polite discussion with anyone. Here, every attempt at a discussion was
eventually diverted into either personal attacks or a sex discussion, etc.,
none of which I have any interest in.

I have set up filters for this newsgroup to keep out the worst of it. I
find that after filtering all the objectionable material, there is little to
nothing happening on rrap most days. Many days I receive absolutely no
messages from this group due to that filtering. The list shows tens of
postings actually made but none get downloaded.

Normally I would agree with you. However, I got really tired of having to
create new filters on a nearly daily basis to eliminate the hundreds of
posts that flooded this news group on a regular basis. Those posts had
nothing to do with policy and everything to do with personal wars. It was
impossible to carry on any type of discussion without it being hijacked or
turned into personal attacks. Even now, only a handful of posts make it
through the filters.

There's no particular virtue in staying in the swamp.
