Subject: [diesel_mercedes] New moderation policy

 

Since we've had a rash of off-topic, ad-hominem posting, I've switched the group back to fully moderated. While this may sound great to those who were frustrated by the noise, moderation comes at a cost to all of us.

For now, I will have to approve each and every posting to the group, even from long-time members. That means it will take longer for your posts to be published to the group. Please don't submit the same message repeatedly and ask why it isn't appearing.

Since I don't enjoy playing traffic cop, I'm going to be fairly mercenary about this. If your post is not relevant to diesel Mercedes autos, I will most likely deny it. Folks who post off-topic repeatedly will be banned.

My hope is that after a little supervision, the conversation will move back where it belongs, and folks who want to discuss politics and alternative fuel theories, or make personal attacks will move on. At that point, we'll return to our previous policy of established members being able to post freely.

Thanks for being a part of this group,

Taran Reese
group moderator
