In late 1996 and early 1997 we had a very serious "flame war" about "robo- moderating" rec.aquaria.freshwater.cichlids. At the time, the group was experiencing over 100 new posts *per day* (!). We wanted to organize it a bit so we could get a handle on the volume of posts. I came out against moderation because I was for splitting the group into smaller forums; but others were pro moderation. If I remember correctly, the vote was pretty close but the anti-moderation folks won. Then, to begin splitting the "post load" down, I created the newsgroup "alt.aquaria.oscars", but AFAIK no one else followed suit in creating new newsgroups. However, Usenet in general, and rec.aquaria.freshwater.cichlids, have slowed quite a bit, I guess because of the proliferation of internet forum sites. (I'm posting this from cichlidfish.com, where I am an administrator) I think because of how few messages are posted at RAFC, it would be silly to start moderation discussions again. --Mark http://www.cichlidfish.com/portal/forums On top of this, the NAN team now has a policy against adding moderation to existing newsgroups. Even if a group were to go through the RFD process, after the rec.screenwriters.moderated mess (which still hasn't died down yet), you have a better chance of seeing God than getting a split approved. It's easy enough to make the spam and it sits at the bottom of the list all greyed out no matter how new the recent replies to it are. .

Which is exactly why I went to alt for the Oscar newsgroup -- no splits required, just send out the control messages after the discussion and sit back! --Mark http://www.cichlidfish.com/portal/forums |
