Any long departed rec.ponder would not be the best choice as a

since they were not here to know what happened on this group over the
past two years. And I doubt they'd be willing to dig through hundreds,
many thousands of messages to make sense of it all.

As we (well most people) seem to be agreed that any moderation should be
done on content and not personality or past posting history


We'll see how this works out. Seems someone's already dumpster-dived the
NYM Zebulon to see where else I may have posted. If past history and the
fact a rec.pond poster may be posting to a "GASP" group the *potential*
moderators don't "approve" of is already being done.... well, you get
the
point. ;-)

================================
What point is that?


The point that some people just have to dumpster-dive to see where others
post. What's the true purpose of doing that? Why would they care and waste
their time?

Carol, we _know_ you post to other groups and it's a
safe bet that many people don't approve of what you post there. So what?


EXACTLY! That's the point. So what? Why do they care? I couldn't care
less if I tried where other people post. Why should anyone care where I
post? Besides, even if we dumpster-dived everyone on the group we'd still
miss groups if they nym-changed elsewhere.

You will _not_ be able to post to any irrelevant groups at the same time
you post to rec.ponds.moderated. Do _you_ get the point?


Of course.
