Bill,
I know it was a tough decision and I applaud your facing the
issue head on. One thing is for sure .. you were trying your
best. No one can do better than that!
Years ago I also moderated a list and I was plagued by some
of the same issues as you were. The abuse heaped on myself
was nothing compared to the profanity and threats that I
had to delete. It got out of hand and I stopped the list.
Years later I learned the offense was orchestrated by one
of my competitors who bragged about enlisting kids to flood
my inbox with smut and my mailbox with adult magazines. It
was a discouraging time.
The RTTY reflector is a reflection of those who post here.
Let those who post remember that others care about the
quality of what is here. I certainly care.
We can all act with respect for each other. "Do not do unto
your neighbor what you desire your neighbor not to do unto you."
Thanks for all you do Bill.
73 de Phil - N8PS
