Now look, you've been told about this. You're not allowed to ask questions about or comment on the running of URCM, because you have the wrong opinion on cycle helmets, and Wacko doesn't like you.

URCM is only nominally accountable to all usenet posters so as to allow it to operate as a uk.* newsgroup; in reality it is a private club where the moderators can do what they want without having to answer to anyone, and that's exactly as it should be. So stop whining and accept that URCM exists to keep out awkward truths and questions of the type that you tend to post. The psycholists are quite entitled to have their little place where they can deny reality in peace. And it has to be a uk.* newsgroup rather than some obscure private one (as you might argue that it should be), because Wacko and at least some of the other moderators are too important to waste their time tucked away in some tiny newsgroup that no-one knows about.

So there we have it: URCM is a private club that you and your ilk are not welcome in and never have been, but despite that it's been given special dispensation to operate in the uk.* hierarchy because of the notability of the Chief Moderator and his subordinates. That's not going to change (unless a decent RFD is raised...please God), so you're just going to have to live with it and stop complaining.
