I wish they'd just be honest and say that they're moderating for the express purpose of policing a small handful of people and when we go, the list will no longer be moderated. Of course if they did that it would only firm my resolve to stay here for the duration, even though the "other" list is far more entertaining and virtually free of flame wars...and when they occur they're over inside of a day. So if the issue really is with a few of us, I'd like to respectfully ask that the owners of the list contact the people they're trying to police so a more reasonable means of keeping the peace here can be established.
