I can echo that reply...  I take care of a few Yahoo groups regarding ARES/RACES in the Virginia Section.  Nothing gets posted without review... we are trying to get young hams involved, and the last thing I want to see is "smut" tarnishing the image of ham radio in the eyes of their parents.

I can't count the number of times I have denied application for posting to porno spammers!!

Forgot to mention...

You haven't seen the BS that the moderation takes out.

Would you like to see a dozen porn web site advertisements
or penis enlargement messages a day?

Or advertisements for religious web sites (especially islamic sites)?

Anyway, now you know why almost all the lists are set up to block
postings from nonmembers, and new members are automatically on
moderation until the list owner has gained confidence in them.
