Maybe the list should be moderated, at least temporarily.

I too grow weary of the list and certain types of threads. For me the list has become a real annoyance to my life. I find myself reading less and less...which is too bad.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
we've discussed many times how very few messages to the list we actually read, and how negatively the list has impacted our community.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Even though I was not present at the Met-List's inception, I have read many archive posts and recognize its change from an informational and proper site to, well, I don't know how to describe the list today. I can also do without the list's daily digressions and ego wars
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many of us have been on the List since its conception in, when was it, 1997 maybe? And I, like ... (and maybe others) are no longer on the List. I just got fed up with the non-meteorite stuff and saw yet another non-meteorite battle brewing and pulled plug.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sadly the Meteorite List has cost lots of dealers customers and many collectors have got out of collecting because of the negative posts. It is a spoiled child in bad need of discipline ...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
a list of responsible meteorite collectors who share a love of that hobby rather than misuse what was once a good idea for a list.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
my delete button is wearing out on my key pad from most of the recent posts on the List. I`m tired of all of the things ...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The B.S. on the List goes beyond annoyance to the point where it is actually diminishing my enjoyment of the hobby.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
A lot of important people have left the List because of the poor
content and bad behavior that exists there. I sometimes cringe
when I read some of the posts made to the list knowing that people
like Carleton Moore and Art Ehlmann, to name just two, might be reading the same garbage.
