I think it is very important the we make it clear that we only edit for profanity and close a topic when it's been dead ended, beaten to death. Moral suassion, like Listmom Cynthia uses on APD is better than editing. It also lessens the liability issues. Moderators should say, "Let's chill out" rather than directly controlling the content. Also, we need a disclaimer that AGA does not endorse any of the comments posted. sh --- Erik Olson <erik@thekrib.com> wrote: > >From what I have seen, we'll need at least one > Administrator that will > take care of creating forums, handling user problems, > etc. In addition, > there are several Moderators (though in my ignorance, I > have no idea if > they have to check each post or whether they just have > ability to > remove/edit material).
