Brilliant! Here we are on the "bring back Manos" thread, thumbs up our 4r53s, and there's something that we can do...

Not a common or garden MODERATOR with no status ..... (if you know what I mean),

After that ... well there ain't no such thing as private when one commits something to the net now is there...

Guilty Conscience? It helps to confess (& I like hearing confessions)

You can tie things down quite well and use mail encryption which is really difficult to crack. There's a good product around for instant messaging as well... Now I've never had control of a UNIX mail system, but I have seen examples of mail admins routinely reading through stuff... and you can imagine what happens to all the dodgy attachments that get "quarantined" by a mail sweeper system. Let's just say that I witnessed some seriously unprofessional practises that made me relieved I wasn't a member of that particular team!

I guess it's a bit different when someone 'owns' a site..I would view everything on that site as coming under the patronage & potential scrutiny (as necessary) by the owner...(& I wouldn't have any prob with that to be honest)

Mmmmm...

I think that John should really have a usage policy. For example, if I typed some information here, it's my work and I can prove I published it (as long as it's still here) and any photographs I post - I retain the copyright.
I can't remember what happens when you "sign up" - there's some stuff then. But I don't believe that ownership of the system and software implies ownership of the data.

[The Jackeens]

By patronage/ scrutiny I was thinking of ACCESS to everything on the site...

I would imagine a responsible site owner (& JK certainly is) would like to have the possibility of access if only to be used when necessary..

e.g. someone posting something dangerous; spamming; even as extreme as someone /something needing investigation (etc. etc.)

Wow! What did I miss? All this got very heavy.. and I was only away for a wee drink...... .. Like, lighten up peeps...life's too short an' all that stuff ....*going for another drink to see if that puts things back to normal*

[The Jackeens]

MISSUS

[Richard B]

I've been red blobbed again, at 00.15, for this thread this time. Guess who was online then.

[Richard B]
