Dee, Kim, and the rest of the old regulars on the group? Hope all is
well!


73, Leo


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.
