If it's too much to work to moderate a mailing list, maybe you shouldn't be doing that. I'm not going to say that all the moderators are just lazy and not really doing their jobs, because that's terribly unfair, and I'm sure there's a lot of work to be done. But instead of giving a reasonable explanation and saying that we're just supposed to accept completely idiotic junk posted to this list isn't fair. Moderators are supposed to, you know, *moderate*.

The message in question was let through by one of the list admins by mistake. It looked relatively alright, but turned out to be off-topic. Human error. We'd already established this in private, and I figured it would be best to just let the thread die through lack of responses, but people jumping up and down and complaining about the terrible moderation job we are doing have made that impossible.
And what's with the ridiculous assertions that we're not moderating? Do you have access to the moderation queue or something? This user has had 10 emails approved and 9 rejected.
