Teamail moderation in action

Nov 02, 2004 5 Replies

A friend who still subscribes passed along this message that shows a rare, behind-the-scenes look at Teamail list moderating in action. List administrator Nadine apparently sent what was a private message to all in the group. This embarrassing blunder was swiftly removed from messages at the Teamail Yahoo Groups home, but those who have posts sent to personal email addresses all received a copy. Confirms my suspicion that Teamail is just a hen house of petty, scratching, stinking old birds pecking around in each others' droppings.

Morning Janis, um.... my pita feelers twitched a bit when I saw the reply of that Keely person- the one that added plenty of fuel to the fire with the ketchup analogy in the first place. I think your post really said it all and look what that person added. I mean, ok if he/she is a purist. But sometimes I wish people could just let go and accept that other people might not seem it their way all the time. At this point I think this thread, for now, is over. And this reply to your message looks to me like an attempt to really stir up something in the teacup. Not sure. What do you think? Back to my mug of "evil brew"..... you guessed it- green AND flavoured! LOL Nad

Your final sentence above is one of the reasons I like rfdt. Nonetheless, there is a little more to it than that. There are indeed some interesting discussions over there, although differences of opinion as to the value of the signal to noise ratio abound. (I rather enjoyed the Nadine's post, dopey as it was.)

Watch your mouth, Michael. Remember, once in rfdt I criticized the dopeyness that makes up most of Teamail, word got back, and I was quickly booted from their membership.

Actually, it's not a particularly embarassing post, as far as embarassing messages go. I've certainly seen worse gaffs. She had an opinion to state about someone and she did so in objective and tame terms. You wouldn't be Keely, would you?

I don't know Nadine, and had never heard of Teamail until reading this post.

I just "applied" to a subscription to teamail. Did someone get upset over ketchup? As long as it is Heinz I thought it was just fine?
