MWB,

Yes, in general I try to keep things "On Topic" and 'focused'
on the specific type of Radio that the eGroup is formed for:
But, there has to be a certain amount of natural discourse in
any group for it to be Alive and Interesting for the 85% of
the Members who simply Read-the-Mail.

However, I am sorry to admit that about every ten days.
I have to DELETE a 'posted' Message and REMOVE-BAN a Member.
Plus File an ABUSE Report with YAHOO Groups about the Member.
NOTE: Not something I 'like' doing; but it is something that
"Has-to-be-Done" to maintain order and establish control for
the benefit of the group. After all in my former life, when
I had a JOB; I was a "Inspektor Gruppe Führer" for more than
20 of those 32 Years. free-at-last, Free-At-Last. FREE-AT-LAST !

Hey I Did That ! {Start My Own eGroups }


And I bet you prefer to keep your groups on-topic and don't kick
people off for simply asking that they stick to the topic.

Right?

.


Keep in mind, Mike's post was after a string of 35 off-topic posts by
others. He asked that the group try to stay on-topic.

JJ's reply, "If you don't like it...guess what...you can leave the group.
", was in rather poor taste for being the moderator.

Following Mike's post, about 4 of the 45 posts were on-topic.

That group seems to need a new charter and name.

For me, the Sat 800 group has become a waste of time to find that rare
on-topic post.


I dumped the SAT 800 group this week. It was getting out of hand IMO.

Just my opinion.
