Moderation no longer means no instantaneity thanks to Robomod:
http://www.gweep.ca/~robomod/soc.politics/ As successfuly tested on soc.politics: it posts most messages w/in seconds. See for yourself. Human intervention is limited usually to posts in the grey-area. saki ) writes: Dan's point about immediacy is well taken. This group tends to benefit especially from round-the-clock updates. I co-moderate a rec.musc* newsgroup; we have a committee of four people to do it and we still get complaints from folks when there's any kind of a delay (which usually results when we're asleep!). Still the process for establishing a moderated newsgroup in the rec* newsgroup hierarchy isn't an easy one and the task of moderating is not something that one looks forward to doing. If it's really an option that folks want to pursue, I'd recommend creating a moderated shortwave group, one to co-exist with the unmoderated version. That way both persuasions can have what they want. It also makes sense to encourage those who are more or less lurkers (like me) or former r.r.s. folks to post more SWL material. I've learned a lot by reading what you folks have to say, and the resources here are quite helpful. I wish some of the folks who were here as recently as six months ago would come out of the woodwork too, but I certainly understand why they might not. It might be better to revive the rec.swl group, perhaps as rec.radio.shortwave.swl and change the current group to rec.radio.shortwave.tech also moderated. |
