Someone abusing moderator priveledge?

T

Tom

I answered someone's post in comp.lang.perl.moderated and I followed the
guidlines.
However, my post was not posted.
I think one of the local cops in this group might be overstepping his
boundaries and not posting my posts because of disagreements here.
I'm certainly going to write to the proper people and find out, because if
my posts follow the rules and it is purely personal, I'm going to see to it
that priveledge is revoked.
I might be wrong, but I'm going to find out.

You are wrong.

You need to learn how Usenet works before coming to half baked conspiracy
theories.

Do you honestly think that you are that important that people waste their time
keeping track of you?

You are delusional.

It has nothing to do with that. It has to do with a clueless child being in
a position they have no business being in.
There happens to be an overabundance of such individuals in the world,
otherwise we wouldn't have such fearful leaders currently in charge.

Perhaps it might have been better to find out before posting unfounded
accusations?

Let me get this straight:

World leaders are arses therefore a moderator of a newsgroup is picking on
you. Proof positive, case closed.

Who are you really? David Icke?

I did say I wasn't sure, but you are probably right I should have waited.

Indeed. So why don't you get a few clues before proceeding?

Nah, he didn't claim the moderators were giant lizards...

If you'd read the guidelines, you'd know that

Subject: 5. Will I receive a rejection notice if my submission is rejected?
===========================================================================

Absolutely. Always. Without fail. Yes. In case this isn't clear:

POSTS ARE NEVER REJECTED SILENTLY.

If your post hasn't shown up in the newsgroup and you haven't received
a rejection notice within a day or two of posting, it is almost certain
that the moderation panel has not received your submission.


You'd also know this:

If you would like to verify that your post is, in fact, in the
hands of the moderation panel, contact the panel administrator
at

I think you're being paranoid. I also think you should have made some
effort to find out the true state of affairs before slandering a bunch
of strangers.
I might be wrong, but I'm going to find out.

Next time, maybe you should try finding out *before* you make public
accusations. Completely aside from the benefit of not offending
innocent people, which you may or may not recognize, it would also
benefit you personally to do this, because you would be less likely to
make an ass of yourself, as you did here.

For the record, no article from (e-mail address removed) has ever been
submitted to the moderation panel for comp.lang.perl.moderated. As
the guidelines say, articles can be mailed to
(e-mail address removed) if the usual news posting path isn't
working for you.
