Re: Moderation

I agree.

Moderation of first posters has major risks, especially if the
moderators are idle, or in case of an issue which moderators are not
aware of.

If moderation be concluded, I am willing to moderate messages of
first-time posters, six days per week, fifteen hours per day.

Kind reagrds,
Schimon
