Dear colleagues,
I entirely agree with the moderator's proposal and with Mary's arguments.
Moreover, I would suggest that lengthier discussions could take place
off-list among the participants so concerned. If any interesting
conclusions come out of these, later, please publish them in the List in
one single post.
Thank you,
Miguel Fernandez

Gary,
I am against more than one post per day. Multiple posts in a dialogue
push out others who are trying to get a word in edgewise. Remember,
not everyone is free to read sequential posts. Not everyone can read
posts each day. In fact, one can read a post and immediately start
formulating a thoughtful response, when already it has become outdated
because other posts have moved the topic on. How can the Peirce-list
attract new people to a Peircean conversation? Not like this. How can
we remain a learning community?

List,
Please remember that participants in the forum are asked to limit
their posts to no more than one post per day in any given thread, and
two posts per day if they are participating in more than one thread.
In the 12 days since I made what I believe to be a reasonable
request I have had to send three off List notes to individuals who
have posted over the limit. I have asked Ben Udell, co-manager of
Peirce-L, to remove those from the List who continue to over-post
after receiving such an off List warning. However, over the course of
many months an occasional 'slip up' will be tolerated, but another
off List note will be sent
I have heard from several forum members who find this request for
limiting the number of posts to be reasonable and those who
definitely do not, and even from one with mixed feelings about it.
But I continue to believe that it is in the best interests of all
members of the List to limit the frequency of their posts.
Best,
Gary Richmond (writing as Peirce-L moderator, and co-manager of the
forum with Ben Udell)
