Hi All,
As the CBQ list owner, I moderate the first few posts of new members for
appropriate content, and believe me, there are a LOT of emails I delete and
new members that I ban. I also have John Lee and Jan Kohl as moderators who
help me monitor the list when I?m traveling. I was in Panama City all last
week and just got caught up on my emails this morning from when I was gone.
Just so you all know, after a person has proven themselves to be a
legitimate CB&Q enthusiast, I let them post at will, as we cannot moderate
every email that gets posted. Sometimes a person will forget and do a mass
mailing and include the CBQ list. I apologize that these happen and I hope
that you will excuse the occasional mis-posts.

Aren't the posts of new members moderated?
The New York Central lists (including mine) generally require that all new
members be approved and their first post moderated. I also did this with
the Tchaikovsky list (I am a moderator there) after there were some
obnoxious posts. It is a pain in the butt but it does keep the bad stuff
off of the list.
That said, I have not noticed many problematic posts on this list. I
believe I have only seen 2 in the past year (correct me if I am wrong).

Dan, It doesn't happen that often and when it does I just move my mouse to
the delete bar and presto, it's gone , the same way you can respond to my
advise. Bottom line, you would be missed if you moved on, but let your
conscience be your guide. All in all, this group is one of the best well run
groups I have participated in. Archie

Thank you. I recognize the limits on your ability to police this group, but
frankly if I receive much more of this stuff, I am going to seriously
consider whether to discontinue receiving the CBQ list.
