It depends on your sense of humour. What you might
consider rude or offensive other might not
Bad language or slanderous remarks aimed at a
persons are a different story.
Off topic might have some relevence to the overall
discussion and you suggest suspended membership. You seem to be the only one on
here thinking along these lines. No one else seems concerned.
If I remark that 500 Khz is quiet at present but at the
same time indicate that 6 metres is buzzing does that constitute off topic with
an automatic suspension or ban.
and people are NOT perfectly happy on Yahoo as you
say in your last paragraph. Have you missed what has been going on regarding the
yahoo reflector from others around the world.

Mal (et al),
Please read my most recent posts on the Yahoo group for my views on
moderation.
It is unusual to ban anyone but where a member has been grossly
offensive, repeatedly rude and hurtful to others, or consistently off-topic
then the moderators have the right (duty even) to delete such posts or even
suspend membership. I repeat this is highly unlikely if people are respectful
of others and post on-topic without getting personal and
offensive.
Now, let's please get back to LF matters and on the Yahoo group where
most seem perfectly happy.

Well John
When you get G3XBM in a email/posting some time
back indicating that a move to Yahoo would enable more control to ban
persons like me whose opinions and point of view differ from his,
this is hardly encouraging or democratic.
A sysop is necessary to ensure smooth operation
of any organised group but not CENSORSHIP or
BANNING.
Come on Mal
I am sure Roger can stick up for himself but
please don't resort to lies.
