J,

 

It might work for JUST your group, but I see examples of this type of behaviour in groups most every day. Saw one at the weekend in a Ham Radio group where some ones post was blocked, and in a Vintage Computer group just today where a reply was removed..

When folks figure out their replies are moderated they will simply create new threads or change the subject in a different thread to get their urgent replies through.

I disagree. That will not happen in our group. How do I know this? Because I ALREADY moderate such threads and it doesn't happen. The only difference is that I now have to do it by hand.

The "having worked in IT for years" argument also holds no sway with me - although, as I posted before re the Freakonomics Radio story, human nature does make people find a way around rules. This is not about IT.
