And it's also good to see that several people have quickly responded. Less encouraging is that all their posts have been held in the queue while several later ones have been approved.

Ladies and gentlemen, the perverse nature of the URCM "moderators" has reached a new level: meddling with *other peoples'* posts just to spite their "enemies". As predicted, the Chief Moderator is obviously furious that my resubmission was let through, and is now yet again indulging in indiscriminate censorship in order to get his way and show that no-one messes with the toughest kid in the class.

Who knows what'll happen now. If they let those posts through then the thread will still flourish, much to Wacko's annoyance (and sod the opinions of those who made the posts, for whose benefit URCM was supposedly created). So they'll probably be rejected, or held for ages, and with a bit of luck, even more people will come to realise the true "purpose" of URCM and join those who want it to change.

More and more, we're seeing how truly fucked up URCM "moderation" is. Has any other group ever been complained about even 10% as much on UNNM? Worst...newsgroup...ever.
