Curtis, there was nothing for me to help with. There is no rule on FFL about search engine rankings. It looked to me like you were wanting a weird tangential enforcement of the anonymity rules, but you are not anonymous. When Nabby's anonymity was being violated, I took care of the situation

I stand with Alex on this. I've had a Yahoo Group to moderate which I closed when it was no longer necessary. Subscribers are on their own with regard to privacy. So choose handles that don't reveal your identity. I'm on Yahoo Groups using several emails, some which give my name and others

With respect to anonymity, my view is that it's exactly like virginity: you either have it or you don't, and when it's gone, it's gone forever. Curtis, the situation with you and your so-called anonymity is, IMO, completely ridiculous. A Google search of your FFL/Yahoo user name brings up your

I used to promote a high tech company on search engines Alex. I brought them to number one in their category. Recent postings of a name pumps up the relevancy in searches. At the time I was complaining about my name being used repeatedly, I could track how it was affecting the search engines.

I'm mystified as to why you think that the alternative to having a moderated group as it is evolving here on FFL is a bliss ninny group. That's absurd. I am all for vigorous discussion, opposing points of view, and honest dialogue. I am against the kind of knee-jerk abusive and often obscene

And that's not what moderating is about. It's for extreme circumstances which are usually rare. You should never give moderation over to a tech illiterate. It just makes them a laughing stock. Perhaps it's time to create an FFL-Ex Yahoo Group. ;-) On 07/07/2015 11:13 AM, salyavin808 wrote:

I think it's part of what moderating is about. For example, I often read the comments section in articles in the Guardian. One recent comment got deleted, with the following message: This comment was removed by a moderator because it didn't abide by our community standards
