Time comes now to do with serious moderation or surely let the list die entirely. Seems a time has come for action one way or the other. Radical action.

Yes, by stark contrast certainly the best writing and exchange on FFL was in a time when the post count was limited to 35 per week. This list cries out for a limit to abuse and a strong hand of moderation. A strict speed limit of 35 posts per week. > > > > > > > > > -Buck > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > In a message dated 08/23/13 16:55:50 Eastern Daylight Time, dhamiltony2k5@ writes: > > > > > > > > > > Dear Rick, the post-count experiment as a noble hope is clearly failing. The lowest form of writing and argument evidently dominates FFL with their diluting flood of the post-count of FFL. As an elder of the FFL community here I implore you Rick, please save our FFL from the lowest form of argument on FFL, the Ad hominem . These people's abuse of the list and community here with the Ad hominem is too much. Something radical, something different needs to be done to save FFL as a spiritual and free place. > > > > > > > > > > Sincerely, > > > > > > > > > > -Buck > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ------------------------------------ > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > To subscribe, send a message to: > > > > > > > > > > fairfieldlife-subscr...@yahoogroups.com > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Or go to: > > > > > > > > > > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ > > > > > > > > > > and click 'Join This Group!'Yahoo!
