Can we get some sort of moderation on this list?

I've noticed a few (rather offensive) emails being posted, that have
absolutely nothing to do with Ruby, or the people involved with it.

Thanks,
Kyle

ruby-lang is unmoderated, so you'll have to do your own moderation. I've
had success with Message Filters on Thunderbird. Probably your mail
client has something similar.

Although I have no filter I feel that would do more harm than good...
Just imagine the moderator(1) would filter my invaluable contributions
out BRRRR.

No seriously it is not that bad, in the two years I read that list
there were mabye 2 (probably 1.5) threads that annoyed me, the other
crap is sooo obvious and soooo infrequent.

Well just my thoughts.

Was so infrequent. Lets hope it returns to that way. Though for the
traffic we have, it's been pointed out, we have an awfully low amount
of noise.

When threads (real ones) start to annoy me, I realize I'm taking it
all too seriously, since ruby is supposed to make programming fun.
Admittedly I have gotten a bit testy before... I can't remember when
or why, but I know it's happened ;)
