Hello all,
It appears that I need to send out this reminder of a couple of things. This is a private group and myself and the moderators are allowed to restrict what can and cannot be posted to the group. Here is the group’s description:
The CBQ Group is a moderated group that is open to anyone who cares to subscribe and participate. The first three new members' posts will be reviewed for appropriateness and will be released only after a moderator approves the posts. The purpose of the list is for historians, railfans and railroad modelers to discuss any topic related to the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad and/or its predecessors. All emails related to the business of the BRHS should be posted to the BRHSlist on Groups.io. The List owner and/or acting moderator(s) reserve the right to stop any conversation thread that they determine is off-topic. If you have, as personal property, Burlington memorabilia, books, or models that you wish to sell, or if you would like to contact someone who wishes to sell such an item, you may use the list for that purpose. Posts by commercial entities are now allowed.
Clearly, current political posts are not related to the CB&Q. Recently a member of the groups was placed on moderated status after posting a second political post after a warning for their first.
Also, emails related to the business of the BRHS should be posted to the BRHSList@groups.io. This includes posts regarding the receipt of Bulletin mailings.
On behalf of the group’s moderators, I do want to compliment the members of this group as you all have been great at playing nicely and staying on-topic. However, a friendly reminder now and then helps keep it that way.
Dave Lotz
CBQ Group Owner
