Kyle:



While Ross created the Culture listserv, he did not unsubscribe from the
UC-List.



There are multiple listservs which have popped up over the last couple of
years to allow

people to privately (in many cases) discuss what is happening on the
UC-Listserv!



I think your reasons for creating a randomly-moderated listsev sound like
sour grapes and

an attempt to sensor selected neighbors post.



Again, people need to self-police and be more considerate.

I was hoping to have a few weeks to run tests, but it seems things have
boiled over here.

The UnivCity listserve has, for me, become less than useless over the past six months. I find it valuable for neighbors to be able to share stories of what's going on in the hood, to plan meetups, and to help one another out which used to happen here when I first signed up. Lately, all I've seen here are vituperative rants and conspiracy theories from the same five people which then inspire the same five other people to fight back which just makes a lot of noise that nobody but those ten people are reading. And in this multi-dozen-message bag of bile we are left to pick out the five useful posts about crime trends in the area and the obituary of a neighborhood
friend.

 So, rather than try and reform a football game that's not mine, I've
created an entirely new one that's been running in test mode for a few days
with a handful of volunteers. You can sign up for it here:

  http://lists.asc.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/ucneighbors

The list is lightly moderated which means, hopefully, significantly less
ranting and cranky behavior.

I'm going to unsubscribe from univcity and hope to see some of you on the other side where I hope to be able to provide a less antagonistic atmosphere
for neighborhood communication.
