ADMIN: NO POLITICAL DISCUSSION

[John Walton]

*Howler explodes in the middle of the OTChatter list*

Okay, folks, you've had one warning from Nice!Mod Penny.

In my hand, I am holding a Rock. On it, it has the words "Moderated Status"
on it in a very pretty calligraphic script. Anybody posting anything
political after this message will be hit with it, which means that the Mods
will have to approve your messages before they're released to the rest of
the group.

Political discussions are banned here for one simple reason: they create a
hostile list atmosphere, with one group or another feeling outnumbered and
victimised. This is not what we want here on OTChatter, or, in fact,
anywhere in the HPFGU community.

Again, I'd like to echo Penny when she said that we read all the mail that
is sent to us (even the spam...) at hpforgrownups-owner at yahoogroups.com
(Mods and Elves) or magicalmods at yahoogroups.com (Mods only), and we do
investigate all complaints. Of course, the action we take is often not
visible (i.e. off-list reminders or howlers), but it's there nonetheless.

Cheers,

--John, for the Moderator Team
