Default Moderated Group?

Hi

Has anyone though of starting a UK DIY moderated group?

I run several Yahoo Groups in my other 'life' as a magician and the flame
wars aren't anything like the Dr Drivel ones we get here.

Obviously the magicians groups are restricted membership for security - we
don't want people knowing how stuff is done, but its dead easy for a
moderator (or moderators) to stamp out silly flame wars that just waste
space and make threads unreadable. or to ban the members that start them.

The only public domain magicians group 'alt.magic' has literally died due to
one troll who just snipes at everyone.

Any thoughts?

Dave
