Re: [seedsavers] Unfortunate circumstances regarding this list



Thanks for what you do, Lawrence.  You make the decision for a name and who 
you allow to join.

It is really hard to own/moderate a group like this.  I own moderate a 
couple and assist on others.  Sometimes I just feel like shutting them down 
and going out to the garden and the livestock.  You can't make/keep 
everybody happy and it takes a lot of valuable time just to stay on top of 
the basics.  I have gotten to be really hard nosed about troublemakers and 
constant complainer.  I have learned to follow my instincts.  The internet 
brings out the best and the worst in people sometimes. The relative 
anonymity gives people the place to be an obnoxious ass that they would 
never be in person.  Sad, isn't it?  You never know when you might end up 
neighbors.
