Wasted hope, Irv. Fortunately, we now have a group where his crap is
not allowed. Much more comfortable, even more than the generic groups,
because it's not moderated by spammers.


Thank Jerry. I hope no one minds if I say the new group is
uk.radio.amateur.moderated. Despite it being a uk.* group, all are
welcome to discuss amateur radio and related technical issues.

It was created in direct response to the abusive behaviour of some
residents of uk.radio.amateur. I'm sure many reading this will have
seen the spillover from that group - this thread itself (look at the
subject) is one example.

The group is about three weeks old, and there have been some teething
troubles with getting news providers to add it, but these are being
ironed out now. If your news provider currently doesn't carry it,
please ask them to add it.

The group charter is he

ur.moderated

Moderation is 'light touch' and is done on the basis of content, not
personalities. Pretty much anything related to amateur radio and
related matters is allowed, and there have been some interesting
technical discussions already. The tone is friendly. Personal attacks
and abuse are not permitted.

If a post you make is rejected, you will receive an email notification
if your posting email address is valid. This email will tell you why
your post was rejected, giving you the opportunity to modify and
resubmit it if you wish. Very few posts have been rejected so far, most
of those being 'test' posts from people testing their news client is
correctly configured.

The regular 'spam' posts from bots which infest the other radio groups
are not permitted.

Please join in - we'd love to see you there.
