[GRLUG] List Moderation

[Justin Denick]

We should really think seriously about list moderation. I don't who is
maintaining this server anymore,
but perhaps they might adjust the spam settings to discard any message
containing certain buzz words like
"top posting". We may even extend that to include messages that only
serve to discredit our lists' reputation and inflame
our attitudes. The moderator may then choose to suspend the
individuals' grlug account for a week or so.


The constant discussion of RFC standards for electronic communication
has made me
wonder if we don't look more like the Email Police and less like Linux
enthusiasts! Imagine what a prospective
employer or recruitment firm thinks when reading our threads. I know
they've read our posts, I've had them
mentioned to me by a respected staffing firm.

Cheers,

Justin
