I would not vote for any moderated group that would allow people
to be banned and I could not see usw.m being created with that
power being available to the moderators.


If nobody could be banned, what would be the point?


The point is to keep the group on-topic. Posts are moderated, not
posters.


And yet, in another reply, you say post-moderation is frowned upon and
not allowed in uk.* newsgroups. I'm sorry, Alan, but you've left me a
little confused.
