Moderate, please ! ! !


Whom do you suggest 'do' the moderation?

The well behaved and considerate will moderate themselves.

This is an unmoderated group so anyone can post anything they
want . Makes sense to me to post in relevant newsgroups, but
'there is no law against it'.

Uk.legal and uk.politics.misc would be more appropriate NGs for
the political dross spoiling this NG.


So, your disagreement is with people who post non-diy related things
like:

"There isn't a B&Q in Calne.

But there is a C, an A, an L, an N and an E."

"Mine is a Nokia N70, code named Rolf after the
infamous Mr.Harris"

"Did your Roberts model in 1967 have the turntable on the bottom
so that you could orientate for best signal?"

"eg, Why does pussy always go for the bowl of Jellymeat Whiskas?

Because he does not like bowls of iron filings and sawdust."


Nothing political there in the odd throw-awy comment in response to
others' threads.


Nothing diy in there either. In fact you've posted almost no diy since
you came here. Most of what you post belongs in uk.humour.puerile .

You're either going to stick to the subject or you're not,
unilaterally deciding that one particular branch of OT is verboten makes
no sense at all.

Perhaps, sonny, you are over-desperate to want to make rude remarks?


Like calling people 'sonny'? What a strange fish you are.
