While I agree with that comment... > The appropriate sequence is: > * Approve the message; > * If nobody else has responded 48 hours later, then, if able to do so, > address the issue(s) in the message; ... there is simply no legitimate reason that a moderator should have to wait 48 hours before replying to a list message just because they approved it. They are free to respond immediately - but only to the LIST message. Anne's mistake is she is replying to the message in the moderation queue before she approves it. Also, she mentioned something about editing a message before approving it. That would also get your list moderator status revoked in my book. Either approve the message or reject it, but never ever edit it then approve it. > One of the reasons that selecting good list moderators is difficult, is > that the job, in essence, requires the moderator to stop participating > in the list. Baloney. They can perform moderator duties with one hat, and participate with another. -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
