But the main reason for it is that i don't like everyone on this list was castrated the same, but the problem mainly was coming from one unqiue
This is not correct, the "problem" was both the original poster *and* all those who could not maintain enough discipline to ignore the
Hi Sascha, person. posting and, instead, spammed the list with their complaints.
I t is standard practice in moderation to remove an offending post *and* all the followups thereto, which can really only be achieved by moderating everything initially.
Still this is a discussion list so answering to topics is what you would expect. With using newer technologies it would be possible to pause communication only for one specific thread. Also as most of us have the discipiline they don't answered because other users expressed already their same opinion. Especially in regards of the issue some weeks ago it was mainly a 1:n communication. So if you remove the "1" of this situation you also don't get any other responses and it will get silent very fast. An open and fast communication is I think one of the building blocks of the internet and we should not stop this for all the members, just the ones that do not follow the specified rules. Again, newer technolgies can deliver such possibilites much easier. For example like setting a specific user to a blacklist only for myself and many more other features. Michael Stenz
