[OZAPRS] Nubies and List Behaviour

[Darryl Smith]

G'Day All

The administrator of this list (me) has been mostly off work sick for the
last ten days or so. This is thanks to a rotary hammer drill seizing and
rotating hitting me on the head, requiring a total of ten stitches. The main
issue has been that the hit caused some swelling on my face causing eye
strain if I tried to use my PC for more than three minutes. Friday was the
first time I had driven in more than 10 days for more than 2km. This weekend
I was finally well enough to do things, so yesterday flew to Cowra (as a
passenger) for the day in the plane I helped build, and today I was out and
about and only just got to my emails.

I would have moderated all "Nubie" posts but I could not find the option to
just moderate posts on this subject. So, I have decided to moderate one
user, and will moderate other users as required. Moderation means that posts
for moderated users will not appear until I have approved them. This will
only happen every 24 hours as I will only get notification every 24 hours. I
may decide to remove moderation of messages for any user at any time as
well. 

At this point I would also like to remind all users of the list to make
their posts concise and meaningful. A post with a subject and a URL is not
idea. If you want to include a post like that, include a bit more detail in
the text describing the link so that people can find it later if needed.

Hi,

I hate opening my emails and finding 23 or more messages from OZAPRS 
containing nothing but bickering.
If Andrew is known to be anti-social to the group all the time, why doesn't 
an administrator BLACK LIST him so he can't contribute (or should that be 
subtract) to the list.
For goodness sakes, most of us have better things to do than wade through 
piles of messages that contain nothing.
Gio.
