If I read a post or posts from a user an then they are no longer in the archive, I would notice that :) Similarly if an "active user" whose posts are less than useful suddenly stops posting I can assume that he came to his senses (unlikely) or that he was forcefully "retired" :) James Wilde wrote: > > Personally I think mailing lists are so last century and nerdy, and that > we should be using a forum which non-technical users like, and then there > would be some justification for calling us moderators.

But since some people prefer the mailing list I think the best option would be to ALSO have an OFFICIAL forum. If a user ends up by mistake at a mailing list he could be redirected to the forum. But filtering real spam is indeed a contribution. It helps to weed useless topics. Of course a moderator would be much more useful if such a forum existed ;) (Personal note: Non-developer contributions don't seem to be highly valued in this community, in my experience...) -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Is-this-list-unmoderated-tp3016333p3019586.html Sent from the Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to users+h...@libreoffice.org In case of problems unsubscribing, write to postmas...@documentfoundation.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
