Moderation is another term (perhaps confusing/ambiguous) for having a "moderator" on the newsgroup. When you have a moderator the newsfeed is termed "moderated", and the act of moderating the newsgroup/message board can be known as "moderation".
A moderator is just a person who has undertaken the thankless job of weeding out all of the "enlarge your..." garbage and killing it before it gets into the feed. Just how many different sources of Viagra are there anyhow?
