Hi,
I looking for ways to moderate a mailinglist distributed. Distributed as: serveral people do the job (not a job for a single person) Goal is a healthy (mailinglist) community. Vision I have for a healthy ML is like nice village that is becoming a nice town. Citizens are aware it is their own habitat and it is their interrest to keep in a good shape. Normal situation is lively communication on the ML. In abnormal situations gets toxic into the ML. That is what should be prevented. ML software can easily block non-subscriber postings. Software I'm looking for can delay postings based upon reputation from a subscriber. The delay allows the pool of moderators to review such posting. Posting of subscriber with establish repuation go through without a delay. It skips "review queue" New subcribers will recieve postings. Their first posting gets a delay of N minutes. The delay has a time-out. If no-one approved a posting from the review queue, the posting goes through the ML. Such "time-out-expired posting" tells that the pool of moderators is too small. Please share your idea of such mailinglist features. Regards Geert Stappers -- Silence is hard to parse
