Yup, I agree Jimmy;
Not too hard. On most of my lists prospective members need to tell why they
want to join...not so much for learning something about the wannabe member, but
to help make sure it isn't a spambot. Also, the first message or three they
post are moderated. That way if someone just joins to start spamming, it is
stopped in the bud.

If at first you don't succeed, maybe you shouldn't try sky diving!

Dan, I moderate for Fly Fishing World with 558 members. I
approve about
4-5 new members a week. It really isn't that big a
deal. I'm the only moderator
for the list. Chris Cook is list owner and lives in the
UK. He approves
during the hours we're asleep here in the US and I
approve during the hours
he's asleep in UK, but the way it works out, I approve
most of them. The
biggest problem I have is people who join and then try to
promote a product.
I've booted one guy 6 times. He'll come back
with a new email addy and
name, but I usually catch him after the first post or two.
Also, list members
keep me informed in case I miss a commercializer.
