Default Moderated List

"author's full name, residential address, telephone number, and IP address"

I'm sure there is a spammer's database out there somewhere.

Why don't you just go ahead and send them all of that information so they
won't have to waste time crawling newsgroups to get it?

Denny, Denny, Denny.... A moderated newsgroup is going to cost more
than mere money. It's going to require someone with vision to draft
an acceptable charter, but more difficult, it's going to require a
full-time moderator or group thereof whose censorship evenhandedness
and impartiality are acceptable to the readership.

Hey, I'll do it.

I'll get you started with The Rules.

Rule #1 - Discussing moderation is forbidden because it just makes
people get upset. Those who discuss moderation will be banned from
Usenet for at least 6 months. Anyone who attempts to circumvent the
ban will be reported to the authorities and prosecuted for misuse of
an automated information system.


I was just gonna kick out peopel who flew cherokess, but anything that
starts an argument is good , so your idea flies.

Rule #2 - An article will not be approved for posting unless the header
contain's the author's full name, residential address, telephone number,
and IP address. Posting false or unverifiable information is both
bannable
and prosecutable as fraud.
