Some numbers for your edification. You have posted 12 times to my 3 today. Who is wasting whose time? (smiles)

   A mail filter is not workable in all situations such as the one under heavy 
discussion. The reasons given are clear. Your comment was not necessary.

This is what I was suggesting but several folks got their panties in a bunch 
and feel that filtering is unacceptable.  They’d rather be spoon fed I suppose 
than work their own silverware.

Good point though

may I offer a suggestion? there are mail filters that can be applied from the 
end user. Most mail clients can actually do this based on a number of criteria. 
So, if someone uses a foul tongue and makes threats, just filter their mail 
into the trash based on that offenders email address, or based on a list of 
words that are offensive. THe offender will realize with alacrity that his 
messages are being ignore and will go elsewhere.

Just a thought.

Of course, as always, it helps to remember that if nobody replied to the 
abuser, we wouldn’t have these issues.  But it also helps to know that a 
moderator can do this quickly in response to a general consensus or clear harm 
being done, and that, for better or worse, people will respond angrily to 
threads and contribute to their derailment.  I see no reason why anybody’s 
freedoms should be impacted by such moderation, only the benefits that come 
from a more efficient filter on the list mail than would be achievable 
otherwise by individual members, especially when the only tools available to 
them are on their devices.

So, as I said previously, I regard this as a matter of administration, not 
ethics.  Having a moderator around is simply important for damage 
control—nothing more.
