- WE do need a division. I don't know about your guys, but I do not have
- the time to wade through literally thousands of postings each day.
-
- I've been reading motss for over 6 years and have seen it grow to an
- immense group -- too large for me to take 3 hours out of my busy day to
- wade through the piles of information looking for those of interest/help to me.
-
- WE NEED different,specialized groups. At least one of which should be
- moderated.
-
- WE need:
- *.politics
- *.activism
- *.misc
- *.news
-
- I, in turn, also support a change from MOTSS to either queer or lesbiangay.
-
- I need the network of gay and lesbian people as a resource in my activist
- duties. It's sad to say that I don't bother with motss half the time because of
- the sheer volume.
