katikatOkay, I think that nobody on my flist knows that I'm the owner and co-moderator of the GWyaoificsearch ML. So far, it was an easy job because people didn't start any discussions, there were no OT entries... But today, a poster was flamed for advertising their own stories - even though it's allowed in the rules *sigh*
Damage control. Most people reacted in a rather negative way, so we decided to make some changes. I changed the rules, I changed the list's description, I asked the members to be courteous, I explained that the poster had the right to do what they did, I explained that we decided to respect the wishes of the majority though and thus we are changing the rules, making the list fic-search only. And I officially apologized to the girl for the flames she received.
And now, we have to wait and see what will come out of it... *groans*
