Moderation
For the past two days we've been experimenting
with moderating this list continuously, 24 hours a day.
You may have noticed that things have become
somewhat more pleasant and productive.
You may also have noticed that there are longer delays
from the time you post a message until the time it's
distributed.
On balance, I think it's worth continuing this experiment.
I expect I'll be doing most of the moderation, but there
are several other volunteers who also know how to
moderate, and can do so when I'm away from my
machine (sleeping, etc.), or at any other time.
The other moderators may have their own policies,
but my goal is simply to eliminate bad posts:
e.g.
abusive or threatening posts
flames
totally off-topic posts
excessive use of foul language
huge attachments or .exe's
excessive number of posts by one person in a short time
"test" messages - I'll reply
requests to unsubscribe - I'll deal with it
My goal is *not* to eliminate negative comments
about Euphoria or myself.
In most cases, I won't reply to the offender.
I'll just delete the message. In rare cases
a perfectly good message might be lost due
to human or computer error. Let me know if
you think this has happened to you, but wait
a few hours first.
