Clueless ones

[msmemory_archive]

I just refused a request from a person whose name I totally do not recognize (does not appear anywhere in my Precedence files), who was trying to join all nine polling lists for the East. Including the Chivalry and the Rose! Bub, if you live in this kingdom and claim to be a member of either the Chivalry or the Rose, and especially if you are a member of both*, trust me if I say I don't recognize your name. Nervy, I have to give him that.

(The East has no male members of the Rose. Period. Yet, anyway.)

And then there's this more recent tendency for list moderators to get more paranoid about lurkers on email lists, and force all newcomers into moderation until they've proved that they will post on-topic (I'm a "guest" moderator on several lists, because I'm online all the time and can deal with those posts...)

But attempting to subscribe to all the polling lists at once? I don't think so!
