It's quite a task to moderate a list with thousands of members, so people who 
have shown not to be needing moderation are left through automatically. 
That's the only thing "special" about them. They can not say "almost anything 
they want" because that would just get them immediately back off the 
whitelist. This is actually no "dark underside" but a fact that is clearly 
explained in the list information - which by the way also explains all other 
reasons for banning posts.

But all sane reasons.

I've been reading enough newsgroups to see what LUG would look like without 
moderation, and I prefer it with. And it sure beats mailing people privately 
to ask them to stop talking about something because you don't like the 
subject, which is how it works on Logic_Cafe.

Now, let's start a "Logic 7.1 probably sucks" thread here as well as a "LUG 
members are repressed" thread, very useful indeed and at least here you can. 
Unless the owner mails you to stop talking about it of course, but with these 
subjects he probably won't.

Maurits.
