This is Usenet. This group is not moderated. It was started by petition and review, but don't know by whom.

FWIW,

Greg G.

Gee, thanks. Now nobody gets to play with his mind.

FWIW, I don't think your woodworking is. Also FWIW I don't think you are either - just a bit thin-skinned when it comes to other peoples' comments.

Take some of your time off to nurture your sense of humor. It sounds like there's more than a hand that needs healing.

My gift for the day: There's a function in the file linked to below that'll make it much easier to urlunencode. If you're pissed at /me/ it's ok to say so in plain English!

I thought it was cabal, masons, illuminati

wrong board.

illuminati = alt. home repir. electrical

mason = alt. home. repair.

Cabal... TV. non- dish.

Nah! Syndicate made the Masons an offer they couldn't refuse

Nope, no moderators, nobody owns it, nobody controls it. It just is.

something up with the moderator if there were one here?

Usenet exists in the classic sense of anarchy. Essentially no rules, except those evolved through its time on the Net and accepted by a large number of the members. Some might call it mob rule - I prefer to see it as pure democracy. As such, any member has as much right to anything about it as any other member.

Which means that if I, or you Connor, have anything to say about the group, either in how it should be run, or a particular complaint, we have full and equal rights as members to voice them in the forum. It also means that we don't have a single person or group of people with whom we can complain to. It's all or nothing.

I've been a member of both moderated and unmoderated groups. I much prefer the unmoderated.

I own it.

I've hired JOAT and the all numbers guy to run it.

Direct staining questions to Larry Jaques, he's the local specialist. For reasons why to junk a radial arm saw, contact Rumpty. Tool improvement is tasked to Ralph Lindberg. Advanced techniques are Stryped's department. If you've got a really basic, repetitive question, Tom Watson is your man. Doug Miller is the Usenet etiquette guru. Lee Valley quality questions belong to David.

Toller...

How so? The link leads to a long-standing source of usenet info and a sizeable collection of links to extensive resources. As far as I'm aware, there isn't a commercial connection.

All I got was pop-ups that covered everything and wouldn't go away until I closed my browser. Spam wasn't the right term, pop-ups.
