ive been a user for months and even helped out many times, i dont see any
justification that i have to wait days before my messages get approved..
for example now i posted a question and i wanted to reply to somebody help
but guess what? i have to wait another day for this message to go
through..so i would be able hopefully get an answer by the end of the
year...
stop the insanity!!!
Sorry, but it's "been there done that". The list used to be unmoderated,
and the result was spamming. Nowadays you see the messages from
whitelisted users, and you see the messages which the moderators passed
from first-time posters, what you don't see is the spam; and as a
moderator, my estimate is that among first-time posters, about 50% are
spammers. "The insanity" would be the porn and "internet pharmacy" spew
you would get if the list returned to unmoderated status.
Best regards,
Tony.
