The cronies originally put forth the idea of a moderated group to exclude non-amateurs from having a voice in an amateur newsgroup. That's where the idea come from. They discovered it was "too hard" so one of the cronies proposed that he would make a BBS. He decided that was "too hard." So they sat on their duffs until someone else came along and did the hard work. Morse Code is truly their only claim to fame. BTW. Did you "reign" as in dominating power? Or "rein" as in any means of curbing or controlling? Mark would certainly fit the latter definition. You'll have to go back up the chain and ask "assembly whiz" or whoever wrote that. Regardless, Robesin was the catalyst for most of the bad behavio[u]r on rrap. If he had apologized for mining the web and bringing back non-amateur related information to policy, and his incessant outrageous claims and accusations.... He's a bad citizen no matter what neighborhood he pops in to. |

That's been covered ad infinitum. Anyway, Robesin is mostly absent from RRAP which is a good thing. If only the cronies had suggested that he cool it with his incessant homo- erotic attacks. Hell everything from Morse Code to Military Service to MARS was attack material for that jerk... |

The moderated group is virtually dead, containing primarily bulletins from Amateur groups around the world and the odd post hare and there.... I suspect the reason why the .moderated group is dead is due to the 'standards' the moderators have decided to implement. For example, I was recently banned from the .moderated group. My "crime"? I had 3 rejected postings in a period of 4 months. Now, I was a staunch supporter of the .moderated group (and still believe a moderated group is a good thing.) I carefully went back and reviewed all the discussion on the group creation, and didn't see anywhere that such silly standards would be used. As the previous moderator of biz.sco.sources in the mid 90's, I would have thought such quantitative standards were outright silly. Over the years, I have participated in many moderated groups, comp.dcom.telecom being one I used extensively in the mid 90's when Pat Townsend(sp?) was the moderator. I can't count the number of rejected postings I've had from .telecom. Dozens. Yet, I never got any silly email from him telling me I was "banned". Instead, my messages were either rejected or simply never showed up. No big deal. That's his job, as moderator. To steer the discussion. If my comments didn't with within the discussion, it was his right to reject them. I actually laughed out loud when I got the email telling me I was suspended from .moderated on the basis of having 3 rejected postings over a 4 month period. I don't know who created that idea, but that's some serious anal-retentive tendencies there. The most disturbing part of the entire episode is none of these 'standards' were discussed up front. How many months have to go by before one of the rejected postings falls off the list? What happens if you have 3 rejected postings in 6 months? 12 months? 5 years? Do you still get banned if you have 3 rejected postings over a 10 year period? So, the reality is they are simply arbitrary ways for the moderators to squash those with dissenting opinion. No biggie, really. This summer I had to build a new barn, and right now I'm in the process of rehabbing the single-pane windows in my 300 year old ranch. Then I have to build wooden storm windows, and crawl into the attic and insulate. All before winter hits. I check in here maybe once every 2 to 3 weeks. Moderated even less. 73 kh6hz |

I think most people have moved on to bigger and better things. Why spend time here when you can be operating on the air? This forum has become a quagmire, pretty much singlehandedly at the hands of the Mark Morgan, who somehow feels he has to spew a response to each and every message someone posts, including his own, proclaiming he is a victim (watch, he will feel compelled to respond to this posting as well, much like Pavlov's dog.) |
