Why do you respond to such mails then? When you respond to such mails _you_ are also becoming a participant. You can't exclude yourself from such blame. > Why do you need proxies when you can > always re-subscribe and send mail (that is, *if one thinks* > one has been moderated and their words are essential > to the existence of this list's members or the whole world Then what is the point of moderation? > for that matter)?

It is for every individual to decide. If one feel he/she is unjustly put under moderation, then why should he/she follow the unjust rules? On top of that, if other members and admins also think it is unjust and agree to be a proxy, it is fair game. In fact, it is a standard pratice in many lists including debian, to forward mails of moderated members (recent case of Sven Luther an example - he was banned from all debian lists, but other members were allowed to forward his mails). > IMHO, for pet peeves, there does not exist any public list, > at least no LUG mailing list; rather one should look forward > to close friends or psychiatrists for such matters!

Now atleast two mails (yours and mine, may be other replies too) you contributed. You can't have the cake and eat it too. Either you remain silent or be a part of the world record. -Praveen -- പ്രവീണ് അരിമ്പ്രത്തൊടിയില് <GPLv2> I know my rights; I want my phone call! <DRM> What use is a phone call, if you are unable to speak?
