Dream on, CL. These guys already know that and they don't care. It's
been that way forever. It's the Curse of Usenet.

After years of resisting I'm ready for a moderated antenna group. I've
used my kill filter more times in the last three months than I've ever
done in the previous ten years.

I, for one, am sick and tired of the foul-mouth off topic postings
and, if that requires a moderated group to get rid of them it would be
a very small price to pay.

I doubt many would disagree with you. I think what you are actually
desiring is "robo-moderation." In which posted text is sent to the
moderator and there is examined automatically, by software app., and
either passed or trashed. In such a method posts bearing foul language,
CW terms, policy terms, etc. would automatically be trashed.

A moderator "hand moderating" posts is more than anyone should be
required to do.

Here are some facts about moderation, robo-moderation is described with
a link on the page:

Danny,


I know what you mean Dan. With the anticipation that ham radio is going
to get dumbed down again real soon, the dumb-it-downers like Lenny,
Markie, Opus and a few others are really trashing the groups with anti
code test hate. We can only hope the code requirement is retained and
increased so that they can't get on HF and mess that up too.

No you don't. You're one of the foul-mouthed off-topic posters that
Dan is complaining about.

It got "dumbed-down" when a license was issued to you.

BTW, what is your call?

What is YOUR call, Billy? Which part of Ohio do you live in? Cincinnati
maybe?

I guess he's in good company then, Brain...There's you, Morkie,
Lennie, Frankie, and Toiddie to keep him warm!

What does it matter, Brain?

You don't sign YOUR call here!

You unceremoniously dropped your "billybeeper" personna for
"hot-ham-and-cheese", trying to hide your identity until your ego
overcame situational awareness and you did sign a post.

I can't help but wonder which one of the other annonnies may be you
right now...Afterall, that is your MO.

No matter...You'll do it again...You'll let your ego get ahead of
your common sense and you'll out yourself again. You always do.

Don't worry about my callsign. Just keep practicing CW. No matter how fast
and good you already are at it you can always improve your skills.

Me too, Danny. There is a group on Yahoo but I don't know if it's
moderated or not:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HamRadioAntenna/

They have 912 members so it might be a good one. I think I'll join and
find out.
