Come on, Steve. Winding people up for fun isn't very nice, and given
the fuss stirred up recently, poorly timed.

Looks like he's unsubscribed, so I'd say he was discouraged, all right.

I'm flipping the list-wide moderation bit on until everyone calms down
a bit. Postings will be slow for the next little while. Sorry for the
chilling effect this will have on several really interesting, on-topic
discussions, but I can't really allow this to continue.

Andrew, you are welcome back, though please consider waiting 24 hours
before responding to an email that makes you angry. Most of the time
on TLUG, it turns out to be one or more misunderstandings, not the
intent to offend. In this case, I read Steve's email as a joke, albeit
one in fairly poor taste in the current list climate.

Your response, while unacceptable, was certainly understandable.
Please exercise better judgement in the future, should you decide to
return to the list.

Cheers,
Josh
