Like all the many other "positive, useful, unoffensive" messages in the archive perhaps, or like the impersonal - of course - one I replied to, with my name in the thread title? I don't mind if you start "screening" posts, because I rarely post here, and because I am not interested by these silly and transparent games, like your effort at "neutrality" on the Anti-Semitism Talk page where you blithely accepted some of RK's delusions and prodded him to take the "higher moral ground".

You must avoid personal remarks, especially on the mailing list. Bathroom humor, or deliberate digs DISGUISED as bathroom humor, are not allowed.
wave of flatulence master baiter If I see this again, I will ask the list for permission to start screening your posts. This would mean you would still receive each message moments after others posted to the list, but your posts would be held pending administrator approval -- or rejected if deemed offensive.
Considering the gist of your message below is that you are blameless and others are to blame, I strongly suggest you abide by my advice: the best way to convince other Wikipedians of your good intentions is to leave a "clean audit trail" of positive and useful messages.
