Re: Assigning admins/moderators, was: (Directed messages)

You are good, Carlos. I was unsubscribed from a list recently - no problem.

There is another similar list that I like that serves as well. I do not intend to try to resubscribe, because I see no reason to try to impose myself on someone, where I must have done something contrary to the way they need things to run. I understand how it is to lead a group of people, and there can be pulling every which way. Keep up the good work. Best from, Carolyn

I've also been a moderator and if people don't agree or there is a miscomunication things can get hary but, I must say Carlos, you're doing an excelent job. You're not coming down hard on someone if they shouldn't have posted something. People don't like that as we've found out on the other list smiles. Just carry on the way you're doing and, there seem to be a lot of people who will give you advice.

Especially since this is my first time running a mail list. Also, I think choosing a moderator is something that should be done with caution and careful consideration. Too often I have seen problems caused when a moderator says something or handles a particular situation in a manner that conflicts with the opinion of the list owner. If the correct person is not chosen and the moderator and list owner do not communicate or are simply not of like minds, I believe this is inevitable. ----- Original Message ----- From: Joseph Hudson <mailto:jhud7789@...> To: TechTalk@groups.io <mailto:TechTalk@groups.io> Sent: Friday, September 04, 2015 3:21 PM Subject: Re: [TechTalk] Directed messages Hey Carlos, you make me an admin I'll help you full your rules.

I.E. If you would like to begin a different discussion, simply start with a new message. Or if what you have to say is at least related to the thread to which you are responding, but may significantly side track the conversation, at least change the subject to reflect this. I will have to work to follow this rule myself since I have not always been careful enough in this respect. ----- Original Message ----- From: Donald L.

But I am starting to see a problem on this list that frustrated me on the other list, specifically Blindtech. I am talking about the practice of directing messages to a specific individual in the subject line. I respectfully suggest that if anyone wants to direct his message to an individual that he do so via private email. I say that because it screws up the sorting of threads badly when the actual subject is preceeded by the name of an individual.
