As a volunteer board member of Minnesota E-Democracy (the owner of this
list), I need to say a few things here.
Minnesota E-Democracy is an ALL volunteer organization. If you have
problems with the management of our lists, email us at
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and volunteer to help.
The emails to this list are not approved by anyone. There is no
"moderator" as in some email lists. We do have a volunteer list
manager--David. His job is to respond to complaints, keep the list on
topic, and keep the list useful for the majority of list members.
We hope that this list will behave as a community and we assume you are all
adults. This means that if you are really upset about a list member's
style:
1. Wait a day--this is a general rule I use--never send something when upset.
2. If you are still upset, send the person an off-list, respectful, calm
message suggesting that his or her emails would have more impact if he or
she modified the tone.
Also, assume that your grandmother is reading all your emails--with 700
members to this list, she may be!
If you want to discuss this futher, email me off list. One thing that can
kill and email community is a discussion of the rules/tone/"bad" list
managers on the list. When that happens, we see mass unsubsriptions to the
list.
