Another idea is that we should be working on an FAQ now as part of the
RFD. The proponents like the idea of more civil discussion but are
reluctant to impose it by moderation. An alternative is to
encourage it through an FAQ. Is it practical/appropriate to write the
FAQ to work in conjuction with the moderation policies with input from
the RFD?
This seems like a good idea.

One idea is setting up a periodic review of smm. I think we would
Six months after the creation of smm the B8MB or its successor will
appoint a person or persons to conduct a performance review of smm.
This review will assess traffic on the group and whether the group is
following the charter and moderation policies proposed in the RFD. The
review can recommend changes to the charter and moderation policies,
reorganization of the group, or the removal of smm. Any of these
changes would be introduced by RFD in the usual way. The review can
also suggest other improvements, such as modifications to the FAQ.
After the first review, others will follow on a yearly basis.
This would have the same effect as requiring the moderator to be put up
for annual reelection, which would be an open invitation for anyone and
everyone to attack the moderator, by any means necessary, year after
year after year. It would also amount to forcing the future newsgroup
inhabitants to sit through a mandatory equivalent of the RFD process
each and every year, and that would open the gates for all sorts of
disruptive behavior by various folks from all walks of the 'net.

Other things to consider:

Who would be conducting these reviews, and how can you guarantee that
this person (or persons) wouldn't be driven by an underlying agenda of
his own? Would there be an avenue of appeal, or does the reviewer have
the last word? What happens if the reviewer abandons his duties and
does not conduct the review?

In my personal opinion, this is *not* a viable idea, as it encourages
divisiveness and invites unnecessary disruption. I do not speak for
any of my co-proponents.

So soc.men.moderated (to be renamed just soc.men after the original
soc.men is removed) will have Moderators For Life?

There will be no way for the men who built this newsgroup to have a
say. Most of them work for a living and don't have the time to become
moderators, even if there were any chance of them getting the posts.

The proponents of soc.men.moderated do not have the interests of the
users of soc.men at heart. They intend to hijack and emasculate most
of the traffic from soc.men then have it removed.

They are cutting deals behind closed doors and there is some cause for
concern about their identities. It's not unreasonable to believe that
sock puppets may be being used.

The present influx of trolls poses less of a threat to soc.men than
does the diversion of a large proportion of the serious and useful
traffic to a censored group.

That's certainly not been proposed; and I don't think that such a
proposal would pass the Board. I'd almost certainly vote against it if
anybody *did* propose it.

This concern is a red herring. soc.men isn't going anywhere.

Glad to hear that and I'll remind you of it in two years. The
proponents are playing a long game here. It's taken four years to get
this far.

Their latest surprise is that they wish to divide the proposed new
group into two parts, one for men's rights issues and one for all
other men's issues.

As a supporter of men's rights, I am aware that it is necessary to
engage with men in other aspects of their lives before introducing the
subject. To do otherwise is to risk being called a misogynist or
worse. The newsgroup, soc.men, serves this purpose admirably,
frequented as it is by both supporters and opponents of men's rights.
At least one prominent fathers' rights group here in Britain was born
in soc.men.

Splitting soc.men into two groups, or even three, would suit those who
hate the effect that soc.men has had. Men's lives are lived as a
whole, not in neat compartments. There is a home in soc.men for
everyone. It's not a hotbed of women-hating fools.

The motives of the proponents of the proposed moderated group are the
key to the problem here. Many interesting posters have left soc.men
over the years, hounded out by personal abuse and repeated allegations
of abuse to their ISPs. ISPs are commercial entities and usually see
no economic reason in properly investigating such claims.

Anyone who has followed the discussion from the beginning will not be
surprised at all. I explained up front that there was disagreement
among the proponents over this question. I mentioned that we would
explore it later.

This is much like part of my reasoning for only creating one moderated
group rather than two.

The motives of the proponents are not likely to have much effect at
all. Everyone will see the proposal we turn out and can judge it on
its own merits. Its implementation will be up to a moderator or
moderators and this will be the person or people to be concerned
about.

I've had to give a lot of thought to this question because I am
working with co-proponents who are strangers to me. I don't know what
their motives are. The more I work with them the better I feel about
them, but I've been fooled by a co-proponent before. I came to the
conclusion that their motives just don't matter. As long as they seem
to be working on an RFD that I can support, I will work with them.

If you are really serious about this, the current proponents need to
discuss it. I can't speak for the group. In the meantime, you need to
think about this more. Read the news.groups FAQs about creating
newsgroups and about moderation. I'm not sure that you even understand
what a proponent does. It is not a position of power. Also you need
to be prepared to come under scrutiny. People are likely to comment
that you only turned up a few days ago and that your nym and email seem
to connect you with Lost. There will probably be demands that you
provide some evidence that you are not a sock puppet. Are you really
willing to face that while being polite to everybody?

Clarification:

Jayne did send one email to the rest of us proponents, precisely ten
minutes before she made the original Usenet post at the top of this
thread, in which she described *her* ideas for A) Annual reviews for
SMM by a third party, and B) Working on the future SMM FAQ before the
group is created. When I wrote the text above, I hadn't read Jayne's
email yet. The first time I read anything about either of these ideas
was in news.groups, not in any previous discussions among the
proponents, and that's why I originally responded in the manner which I
did.

Are you in agreement with this account of what happened, Jayne?

Hopefully now, we can move on to the meat and potatoes of this RFD, now
that this bare-bones RFD has been officially published in NAN. :-)

Jayne doesn't or can't even be honest with herself. Discussions are
not her posting some ideas in an e-mail to her fellow proponents, and
then posting them as having been discussed to usenet ten minutes
later. A discussion is one or more exchanges on points or ideas.

What she did was post a trial balloon to the fellow proponents and
usenet. There was no discussion between proponents and that states
WRT to Discussion was a deliberate act of misleading people in
news.groups.

I haven't been "caught lying and misrepresenting". You have found a
few unclear or ambiguous comments of mine and assumed that they were
made with intent to deceive. It is flattering that you seem to think
that my command of the language is such that I would always write with
perfect clarity, but it is not correct. Sometimes, with the best of
intentions, I fail to clearly communicate my ideas. This happens to
people. I suspect it even happens to you. How would you feel if
people assumed that any time you misspoke it was a delberate attempt
to deceive?

I try my best to tell the truth. It's important to me. I admit I'm
not perfect. Sometimes, I think I go to far in my attempts to be
tactful and diplomatic and downplay unpleasantness too much. Sometimes
I write a polite post while thinking "What a jerk". But I do not lie.

Sharon, what do you think you're accomplishing with this?

Are you trying to convince Jayne to change her stance? I don't
think that flaming her is going to help.

Are you trying to call Jayne's credibility into question with the
Board? I know that every time I see someone say 'fr00t', my sympathies
turn towards the soc.men crowd; you're definitely being counterproductive
with statements like this.

Are you trying to show what an abusive atmosphere there is in
soc.men? That's certainly coming out.

I still don't know what I think about this whole proposal; if
anything, I think that there are still many issues that have to be worked
out before the Board is even willing to vote on the matter, but I also
think that those issues will be worked out. But the only way that this
massive flamewar is adjusting my opinion is that I'm growing more biased
against those that are inflicting it upon me.

Well, this is the sort of kookery and trollery that we have been getting
on soc.men for quite some time now.

Thats why, when you check out the stats of most frequent posters to
soc.men, undifferentiated by which did and which didn't crosspost,

But, were an analysis done that looked at posts only posted to
soc.men, and/or posts made only to soc.men and *relevent* newsgroups
( Like threads on rape cases and law going to talk.rape, or child
support threads being shared with alt.child-support ), the list of
most frequent posters to soc.men would be very different, with the
kooks gone from that list.

Indeed.

I still don't know what I think about this whole proposal; if
anything, I think that there are still many issues that have to be worked
out before the Board is even willing to vote on the matter, but I also
think that those issues will be worked out. But the only way that this
massive flamewar is adjusting my opinion is that I'm growing more biased
against those that are inflicting it upon me.
Well, this is what we've been telling you... :-)

How would you feel if people assumed that any time you misspoke it was
a delberate attempt to deceive?
Gee--that NEVER happens to me from the soc.fr00t cabal.
Sharon, what do you think you're accomplishing with this?
Trolling, and making soc.men less useful to men, and men's rights
advocates.

Are you trying to convince Jayne to change her stance? I don't
think that flaming her is going to help.
No, but it fits in with trolling.
Post by Tim Skirvin
Are you trying to call Jayne's credibility into question with the
Board? I know that every time I see someone say 'fr00t', my sympathies
turn towards the soc.men crowd; you're definitely being counterproductive
with statements like this.
Well, this is the sort of kookery and trollery that we have been getting
on soc.men for quite some time now.
Thats why, when you check out the stats of most frequent posters to
soc.men, undifferentiated by which did and which didn't crosspost,
you find that the kooks and trolls do show up with high overall
numbers.

These proposers, including Jayne, want to silence the voices of men's
rights' supporters in the new group. That CANNOT be allowed to happen.
The MEN in soc.men need to rise up and take charge of this proposal. This
proposal needs to be driven by REAL MEN, not by three wussy submissives
led by a strapon-queen.

Do you have some suggestions about the proposal? Are you volunteering
to be a proponent? If you have some ideas about creating
soc.men.moderated, please feel free to share them.

BTW, you seem to misunderstand the relationship among the proponents.
Bret is the lead proponent. I am usually able to post more, so I may
seem more vocal, but he is the driving force of the proponents' team.
If I were in charge, we would have done more informal discussion before
submitting the RFD. I deferred to his wish that we do it as soon as
possible.

As I am getting to know my co-proponents better through working with
them, I am growing to like and respect them. As far as I can tell,
they are real men.

If you are all that concerned about soc.men, you should try posting
there once in a while. Jayne's genital plumbing is irrelevant. She is
doing an excellent job as proponent.

I am a man, I think soc.men is fine just as it is. A wonderland of
paranoid, bitter, weak kneed, misogymistic kooks.

Where else can I find a plethora of supposedly *manly* men so phobic
of women. To the point they actually revel in finding statistics and
articles that *prove* how oppressed are those self said *manly* men.

Oh, I'm a lumberjack...

was/is some sort of back channel discussions going on, with only ten

Maybe she is following the example set (by the big 8 board, with
their infamous 20 minute vote)?

Why would you remove soc.men before creating soc.men.moderated? It is a

newsgroup and the problems that led to a need for the moderated group would
not only continue, but would also displace another group.

There are advantages to having both groups. Anyone who actually enjoys the
hostility of soc.men could continue to do what they have been doing there
and those who prefer a low-noise environment could enjoy that in

It only makes sense. The noise would go to some other group. The
activity and abuse that would remain would complete spoil soc.men for
any purpose. The time and only meaningful time to remove it would be
at the time the moderated group starts. There already exists group
(alt.mens-rights) which would cover the most discussed topic here,
which BTW, is the cause 80% of noise <anti-female discussion>. There
is also talk.rape for the pro-rapist, minority faction.

IMNSHO, Men's rights is a fiction and while people like to think they

Your identification of alternate groups for various topics makes some good
points but I cannot bring myself to agree with you that this is sufficient
justification to rmgroup soc.men, at least not until after the creation of
soc.men.moderated (if at all.) Each group would have it's own dynamic, I'm
convinced that that there would be enough of a difference to indicate
retaining both.

It is my opinion that anyone who advocates rape is simply looking to start

I agree 100%, our original RFD was for two groups, one was going to host
"men's rights" but the present RFD is what it is as a matter of simplicity
and expedition.

"Men's rights" is a legitimate issue, not always associated with dodging
responsibility (good examples are custody and visitation) and I believe
that we could foster conversation more in these veins in the moderated
group. It's simply a matter of setting the group dynamic with a good
starting core of contributors.

How would you feel if people assumed that any time you misspoke it was
a delberate attempt to deceive?
Gee--that NEVER happens to me from the soc.fr00t cabal.
Sharon, what do you think you're accomplishing with this?
That assumes I have an agenda.
Post by Tim Skirvin
Are you trying to convince Jayne to change her stance? I don't
think that flaming her is going to help.
Are you trying to call Jayne's credibility into question with the
Board?
"trying"? Yah, I have a habit of calling Jayne on her dishonesty.
Post by Tim Skirvin
I know that every time I see someone say 'fr00t', my sympathies
turn towards the soc.men crowd; you're definitely being counterproductive
with statements like this.
If y'all make your decisions based on that, then I don't know how to
respond other than--bring back the old way of voting. The proponent
comes in here and gets caught /multiple/ times in falsehoods, brings
in a slew of Stealth Proponents. sheesh.
Post by Tim Skirvin
Are you trying to show what an abusive atmosphere there is in
soc.men? That's certainly coming out.
That didn't need my help, Jayne's friends are helping her out quite
admirably.
Post by Tim Skirvin
I still don't know what I think about this whole proposal; if
anything, I think that there are still many issues that have to be worked
out before the Board is even willing to vote on the matter, but I also
think that those issues will be worked out. But the only way that this
massive flamewar is adjusting my opinion is that I'm growing more biased
against those that are inflicting it upon me.

So I've seen; but your zeal in doing so is effectively keeping me
from attempting to decipher whether you've found something unambiguously
wrong, or if you've just found typos, differences in phrasing and/or
opinion, or legitimate mistakes. I think that this is detracting from

Okay, on the falsehoods - would you like to list them, preferably
in some kind of order of importance, and without the gratuitous personal
attacks?

I'm less concerned about the "Stealth Proponents" at this point.
If none of the proponents were known quantities, I'd be more worried; but
given that Jayne is in large part the public face of the proposal, and
*she's* known, then I'm content.

They're not legitimate mistakes when they happen over and over and

It would be easier to point out when she's /not/ lying or
misrepresenting. I've pointed out all the ones I've caught her at,
with the gratuitous insults.

The point is, not to take /anything/ she says about /anything/ at face
value, cuz she misrepresents most everything--and she's been called on
it in multiple ngs across a span of years. The latest whopper is the
one that Lost persona busted her on, which may or may not be germaine
to her being a proponent: her claim that her master/husband grounded
her from Usenet for 3 weeks for disrespecting a man--and the
master/husband coming in here and stating he did no such thing and
doesn't tell her what to do.

I'm not at all sure that all the proponents save Bret aren't her socks
(and that includes her husband, Vic). It would certainly explain her
lie re: 'the proponents are discussing X' when the truth is they were
not, it was an email /she/ sent out not ten minutes prior to making
that claim. Geez, her fellow proponent busted her on that one.

If you're going to allow proponents to sock up, then you're gonna end
up with RFDs from folks like Bert & Schattie, Bowtie and even
Hipcrime.

Vic and I often have very different perceptions on things. I think he
is the most wonderful man in the world and he thinks he is just
ordinary. I think of him as the head of the family but he does not
really think in those terms. He thinks more in terms of his
responsibilty to care for us. I think it is very important to respect
his decisions, while he may perceive himself as merely suggesting or
mutually agreeing. Neither of us is being dishonest. We just
understand our relationship differently.

Oh, bulldada. Lost had it exactly right.

You once invited me to report you to your husband if you misbehaved.
Is this the type of incident that you had in mind?
Write to me at this email address and I will send you his address so
you can report me. Or, if you would prefer, I can tell him about it
myself.
Jayne
Post by Sharon B
No really, Jane, it's all right.
It's too late. I already told my husband about it so he would know to
expect an email from you. He has told me that I can't use Usenet for
three weeks. He gave me permission to make this post so I could explain
that I wouldn't be posting for a while. Bye for now.
Jayne
****************************************************************************

Whereas Vic says:
"However, contrary to Jayne's fantasies and desires and the impression
she is leaving in various places on Usenet, I do NOT dominate her or
give her orders or tell her what to do."

One of you told a "porkie". Either Vic told you you weren't permitted
to go on Usenet or he did not.

I was all prepared to believe the liar was you, since I catch you
lying all the time...but since I've now caught /Vic/ in a bald faced
lie on something else, I don't know which one of you it is lying
above.

I agree. There's a lot Jayne doesn't know (typical for proponents)
but she knows there's stuff she doesn't know (atypical for proponents)
and is receptive to logically evaluating advice she may not like
rather than rejecting it because she doesn't like it (atypical for
proponents). Can't figure out why she's interested in soc.men though.

Edward, Jayne has run from group to group with basically the same

doesn't want to be bothered with /noise/. /Noise/ = stuff she doesn't

Nope. For one example, she deliberately xposted crap between
alt.mothers and something*child-free, despite posters in both groups
telling her to shut the hell up and knock it off---then out of the
blue all on her own proposed some kind of /moderated/ combination of
the two ngs so they could discuss /her/ issue without getting flambeed
(convincing child-free to be parents).

And ya might want to consider Bob was likely asleep when she posted
her demand for proof, mkay?

Sharon point out her announcement of so-called 'discussion' with the

Only on Tuesdays. But I can see, for example, Thorne conspiring with
his buddy HipCrime where he is the visible proponent, HC the Stealth
proponent of a moderated ng with Big Daddy Zeus as the proposed
moderator--who, while a thug, would pass the prevailing opinion of 'so
what, other moderators are thugs, too'.....then once they get the
moderated ng, all hell breaks loose.

Are you trying to call Jayne's credibility into question with the

turn towards the soc.men crowd;
That is one of the reasons that we need a moderated newsgroup. It simply
doesn't appear that the situation will resolve itself on it's own. I don't
want to play chicken & egg here, I just want to point out that there is a
group of people who won't leave each other alone and it has rendered
soc.men unusable in my opinion.
Post by Tim Skirvin
you're definitely being counterproductive
with statements like this.
Are you trying to show what an abusive atmosphere there is in
soc.men? That's certainly coming out.
That is the reason we need a soc.men.moderated.

I still don't know what I think about this whole proposal; if

out before the Board is even willing to vote on the matter, but I also
think that those issues will be worked out. But the only way that this
massive flamewar is adjusting my opinion is that I'm growing more biased
against those that are inflicting it upon me.
I don't think this is such a difficult proposal. A group of people want to
create a newsgroup, we are convinced that the newsgroup will be used, all
we need to do is reach a consensus in regard to the details surrounding the
group. I believe it can and will be done.

What is happening here is that the AUK folks are entrenching the
reputation all over the net. Loads of people are dropping by to see what's
happening here and people are getting an eyeful of what the AUK cadre is
doing. I know they believe they are winning this little war they have with
soc.men. There are maybe a dozen of the punks playing in here. Eventually it
will dawn on them in some fashion that it is they who are taking the real
reputation hit. There have been efforts before to destroy soc.men. All of
them have failed as will this. Compared to the war mounted by the radical
feminists in 96 -97 these clowns are amateurs. Poseurs. They'll go away once
they see that they are rapidly becoming the laughingstocks of the net.

soc.men? That's certainly coming out.
That is the reason we need a soc.men.moderated.

I still don't know what I think about this whole proposal; if
anything, I think that there are still many issues that have to be worked
out before the Board is even willing to vote on the matter, but I also
think that those issues will be worked out. But the only way that this
massive flamewar is adjusting my opinion is that I'm growing more biased
against those that are inflicting it upon me.
I don't think this is such a difficult proposal. A group of people want to
create a newsgroup, we are convinced that the newsgroup will be used, all
we need to do is reach a consensus in regard to the details surrounding the
group. I believe it can and will be done.
What is happening here is that the AUK folks are entrenching the
reputation all over the net. Loads of people are dropping by to see what's
happening here and people are getting an eyeful of what the AUK cadre is
doing. I know they believe they are winning this little war they have with
soc.men. There are maybe a dozen of the punks playing in here. Eventually it
will dawn on them in some fashion that it is they who are taking the real
reputation hit. There have been efforts before to destroy soc.men. All of
them have failed as will this. Compared to the war mounted by the radical
feminists in 96 -97 these clowns are amateurs. Poseurs. They'll go away once
they see that they are rapidly becoming the laughingstocks of the net.
Can you depict this imaginitive usenet good/evil struggle in a Play
Doh diarama for us, Kenny Kakes?

AUK is not interfering with smm. Some of us are adding our well
deserved two cents. That is all. But please continue to froth at will.

No sir, I don't. What I do believe is that starting a moderated group with
some fair rules and a good core of contributors will set a less abusive
dynamic; a direct consequence is that soc.men.moderated with thrive as a
positive forum for discussing men's issues. Soc.men can continue to house
the flame wars and trolls who are more concerned with insulting each other

The proponents of smm are discussing a couple of ideas and I would
like some input from news.groups.
We've discussed various ideas, but I don't recall having discussed
either of the following.
Gee, Jayne's making stuff up again. What a shocker.
Somebody's lying to us - either Jayne or Bret. Probably Jayne, since she
hasn't denied Bret's charges.
Jayne did send one email to the rest of us proponents, precisely ten
minutes before she made the original Usenet post at the top of this
thread, in which she described *her* ideas for A) Annual reviews for
SMM by a third party, and B) Working on the future SMM FAQ before the
group is created. When I wrote the text above, I hadn't read Jayne's
email yet. The first time I read anything about either of these ideas
was in news.groups, not in any previous discussions among the
proponents, and that's why I originally responded in the manner which I
did.
Are you in agreement with this account of what happened, Jayne?
Hopefully now, we can move on to the meat and potatoes of this RFD,
Part of the meat and potatoes is the trustworthiness of the proponent.

Jayne has been caught multiple times misrepresenting--and now, bald
faced lying. Her sending one email does not a discussion make--and
I've already lost count of how many times the /only/ proponent with a
posting history has misrepresented things in this ng just in the last
month.

"The proponents of smm are discussing a couple of ideas and I would
like some input from news.groups." in no way equals "Jayne did send
one email to the rest of us proponents, precisely ten minutes before
she made the original Usenet post at the top of this thread"

The rest of y'all are apparently "Stealth Proponents", socking up for
this proposal so no one knows who you really are.

You, for example, could be Bob the Rape Advocate or Hot Frog the Rape
Advocate for all any of us know....or, you could be an AUK-er. I
wouldn't put it past one of y'all to be the current scourge of Usenet,
Steve "Bowtie" Young.

You, for example, could be Bob the Rape Advocate or Hot Frog the Rape

The proponents of smm are discussing a couple of ideas and I would
like some input from news.groups.
We've discussed various ideas, but I don't recall having discussed
either of the following.
Gee, Jayne's making stuff up again. What a shocker.
Somebody's lying to us - either Jayne or Bret. Probably Jayne, since she
hasn't denied Bret's charges.
Jayne did send one email to the rest of us proponents, precisely ten
minutes before she made the original Usenet post at the top of this
thread, in which she described *her* ideas for A) Annual reviews for
SMM by a third party, and B) Working on the future SMM FAQ before the
group is created. When I wrote the text above, I hadn't read Jayne's
email yet. The first time I read anything about either of these ideas
was in news.groups, not in any previous discussions among the
proponents, and that's why I originally responded in the manner which I
did.
Something sounds fishy... Jayne posting an e-mail to people a few
minutes, "ten minutes", before posting it to usenet is not "The
proponents of smm are discussing a couple of ideas".

This is Jayne trying to mislead people on news groups WRT the
activities between the proponents.
Post by Bret Schaffer
Are you in agreement with this account of what happened, Jayne?
Hopefully now, we can move on to the meat and potatoes of this RFD, now
that this bare-bones RFD has been officially published in NAN. :-)
<sigh>

Jayne's habit of trying to misleading people is getting tiresome.

Another idea is that we should be working on an FAQ now as part of the
RFD. The proponents like the idea of more civil discussion but are
reluctant to impose it by moderation. An alternative is to
encourage it through an FAQ.
Good so far.
Is it practical/appropriate to write the
FAQ to work in conjuction with the moderation policies with input from
the RFD?
Sure, but it should be only written _after_ the community has established
itself in the newsgroup, and not before. An F.A.Q. is not a founding
document.

Six months after the creation of smm the B8MB or its successor will
appoint a person or persons to conduct a performance review of smm.
This review will assess traffic on the group and whether the group is
following the charter and moderation policies proposed in the RFD. The
review can recommend changes to the charter and moderation policies,
reorganization of the group, or the removal of smm. Any of these
changes would be introduced by RFD in the usual way. The review can
also suggest other improvements, such as modifications to the FAQ.
After the first review, others will follow on a yearly basis.
Normally hierarchy management isn't involved in groups after they are
created. But I suppose its possible current management will adopt a
non-traditional course and want their fingers in everything.
It doesn't have to be all or nothing. It could be specific to smm.
But, back to the basics, this constant search for some way to rein in
moderations tells me the soc.men groupers aren't really willing to
accept moderation.
Eh, I'm not so sure about that. We've had some fairly successful
moderated groups come out of RFD discussions that were heavily concerned
with reining in moderators.
I agree with Edward, or I at least agree that soc.men is not ready to
accept the TYPE of moderation that Jayne Of Arc and the Three Mouseketeers
are proposing. They aim to silence the voices of longtime, distinguished
soc.men patrons like MCP, and replace it with feminist slopaganda. Look
how she changed her tune in less than a week. Last week she was telling
MCP that he's a legend of soc.men and that the new group would not be the
same without him. Now she's threatening to ban him if he refuses to obey
her rules in SMM.

And who the hell does this Graham Dribble character think he is, barging
in and trying to moderate the group? I'll bet a thousand farthings that
the man doesn't give a rats arse about men's rights!

I still want MCP to continue giving links to articles. He does a great
job of finding really interesting items. I just want him to obey
international law and follow fair use standards when he does it. In a
moderated group, he isn't simply risking himself when he violates
copyright; the moderator becomes liable for prosecution. It isn't
fair to ask a moderator to take on that kind of risk.

This is not a matter of silencing MCP's voice. If it were his own
voice, it wouldn't be an issue. The articles he reposts are somebody
else's voice. MCP is free to write whatever he wants in his own words
(other than threatening violence).

That is not necessary in a technical moderator. What one looks for in
this position is technical skills and honesty. Considering his
record, there is every reason to believe that Graham Drabble is fully
qualified.
