I can draw the conclusion that they're human. And also that they stick to references to the rules when moderating, not favoring personal opinions. > You'll notice that almost nothing get censored here - except the spammers - > in fact there were some people who complained about this list itself on > this list.

There are a few things I'd like to point out though. First of all, it may have occurred to you that LUG has 19740 members and Logic_Cafe has 304. Secondly, every time the LUG moderators did let their guard down slightly, it resulted in a (platform-)flamewar. Rather than waiting for discussions to descend in total chaos, they try and prevent it, which is a good thing. And last but not least, wasn't it you who told me in private mail to stop talking about something on this list just because you didn't like a joke? Maurits.
