Introducing the IDM - MODERATED list...
the signal-to-noise ratio has been over-
whelming on the idm list for quite some
time now so in an effort to develop a
much on-topic & civil discussion forum
i have just created an idm-moderated list
using the YahooGroups list service.
the list is MODERATED by me and it will
be used exclusively for the discussion
of idm, ambient, techno, dub, electronica,
downtempo, & experimental music. Off-topic
and aimless threads will not be tolerated
nor will discussions about mp3s, bootlegging,
what is idm, fanboy worship, self promotions,
sale lists, music production, hobbies outside
music, etc. abuse of these rules could result
in expulsion from the idm-m list. i will be
tyranical about these rules only to insure
quality list content.
List membership is by permission-only so
i have to authorize all members. I will
authorize all new members but this feature
also allows me to block repeat offenders
from resubbing to the list.
This idm-m list was just created last
night so it's still in the development
stage. You can subscribe now but keep
in mind it may go though a few changes
in the next few weeks but only with the
purpose of making the list better.
So welcome all who want to talk about
and find out about music and NOTHING BUT
music.
To subscribe to the idm-m list visit:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/idm-m
btw: i will continue posting my messages
to the full idm list so those of you
who want a forum with more 'liberal'
posting policies can remain on this
list.
