My advice is to go to googlegroups, yahoogroups, or any of the other *.groups and start your own moderated community/group there instead of trying to start your own moderated newsgroup on Usenet.

However, I decided that, rather than waste time here, my efforts would be better spent actively trying to drag ham radio into the 20th century. That being said. I see no benefit to a moderated group and would not participate in one. Self-moderation by all sides would go a long ways. Establishing a moderated newsgroup on policy defeats it's own purpose of providing open discussion. Perhaps those who control the Big 8 will feel the same as myself. Perhaps they won't. Either way, it's of no real consequence since I have no interest in subscribing to such a newsgroup. 73 Hi All, I've been following along the discussions. And Mr. Brock, I have to say I personally am in favor of discussion of the NG's topic. Self-moderation has proven it's self to lead to name calling, personal attacks, CB'ers attacking hams and may more such useless posts and cross posts. I agree with KH6HZ , who said "Great proposal. Can't wait to cast my vote for the affirmative." I think KH6HZ has hit the nail on the head. I couldn't have said it better. 73 all, Ace - WH2T You guys do realize that you don't get to "vote" don't you? I guessing that the constant referrals to getting to vote are some kind of an inside joke. could be that someonbody knows the Or thinks they know even more likely) that the fix is in http://kb9rqz.blogspot.com/ Given the lack of replies, I guess it wasn't an inside joke. Mark, why do you worry about it so much? If they want a private country club type atmosphere, and those who control the Big 8 don't mind allocating the resources to it, why not let them have a little place of their own. Don't worry, this place isn't going anywhere and they won't be able to resist dropping by to do what they have always done before they retreat back to the country club to brag. Frankly, I see it as a waste of band space, but band space is cheap these days. Look it as a consolation prize now that they have to share all those HF frequencies with people who didn't lean the code, they can at least have a little piece of cyberspace. Why the didn't go to Yahoo groups or Myspacegroups still eludes me and no one has cared to reply. Must be some kind of a prestige thing. It's OK though, because I really don't care what they do or where they do it. Freedom of speech is a great thing even if some have to feel protected to exercise it. You have been taken in by the oldest scam in ham radio. Your logs mean nothing because you never did moonbounce after all and just talked to a guy with a 100 mw qrp rig somewheres nearby. We are all laughing at you. -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

'BAWAHAHA'" -- Dustbin "Outer Filth" K00k's delusions of grandeur reached new heights, in Message-ID: "Immorality: The morality of those who are having a better time." -- H. L. Mencken "Consider that language a moment. 'Purposefully and materially supported hostilities against the United States' is in the eye of the beholder, and this administration has proven itself to be astonishingly impatient with criticism of any kind. The broad powers given to Bush by this legislation allow him to capture, indefinitely detain, and refuse a hearing to any American citizen who speaks out against Iraq or any other part of the so-called 'War on Terror.' "If you write a letter to the editor attacking Bush, you could be deemed as purposefully and materially supporting hostilities against the United States. If you organize or join a public demonstration against Iraq, or against the administration, the same designation could befall you. One dark-comedy aspect of the legislation is that senators or House members who publicly disagree with Bush, criticize him, or organize investigations into his dealings could be placed under the same designation. In effect, Congress just gave Bush the power to lock them up." -- William Rivers Pitt "It has become clear in recent months that a critical mass of the American people have seen through the lies of the Bush administration; with the president's polls at an historic low, growing resistance to the war Iraq, and the Democrats likely to take back the Congress in mid-term elections, the Bush administration is on the ropes. And so it is particularly worrying that President Bush has seen fit, at this juncture to, in effect, declare himself dictator." -- Frank Morales http://www.uruknet.biz/?p=m27769&hd=0&size=1&l=e&fark "No man in History, including JESUS CHRIST, has directly revealed to the World the SATANIC WEAPON used to enslave mankind -- INTELLECTUAL THOUGHT!!" -- Ray Karczewski repeatedly proves his words in every post he makes |

No, Mark's a k00k, too -- but a boring k00k, only one award: the GK. You might remember it, as you've been nominated for it this month. As for me, I'm no radio ham.

If you don't floss every night and morning and brush at least twice a day, don't talk to me. If you don't spend money on you hair and get great cuts and color, don't talk to me. If you are heavy, don't talk to me. If you don't shower every morning and take a nice bubble bath every night, don't talk to me. If you don't have a loved one in your arms, don't talk to me. If you don't keep an immaculate house, don't talk to me. If you don't work, don't talk to me." -- Clearly, Martha Vandella never wants to talk to me, which is for the best, really. MID: . com |
