Holly, I've seen your posts on RGMA and am extending an invitation to
join the mud-dev mailing list. Its a private list, and we keep it
very high signal to noise. Personal attacks are not welcome, but you
wouldn't be seeing this from me if I thought you would...
The good part is that I don't know exactly how to go about
doing this :P
JC is the list owner, claw#null,net, coder#ibm,net
I'll try to get you a more formal invitation scared up, with
actual directions as to what you should do to join.
If I remember right, try sending mail to mud-dev#null,net with
subscribe <email_addr> in the body...

You've got a point, but I think that even just CC'ing this group's
posts to RGMA might offer those who are looking for it a glimpse
of civility and thought that they otherwise would not find. AFAIK
RGMD and RGMA spawned many of us, I know it did me.
I'm not suggesting that we allow losers to post here as they wish
however, they should have to pass some kind of minimal decency test :P
I still think it would be a shame to allow RGM* to die though..although
I am at a loss as to how to save them from themselves...
