 It's been proposed that a new newsgroup be created, 
 digitalmars.D.moderated. It would work like moderated newsgroups on 
 usenet do, such as comp.lang.c++.moderated. There would be 3 or 4 
 volunteer moderators (not me), who would disallow posts that were 
 off-topic, me too, spam, lacked content, or contained personal attacks. 
 Ideally, the moderated group would set the bar for the quality of the 
 messages.
 
 The original newsgroups will remain as the free-for-all wild west that 
 makes them both fun and perhaps a little intimidating for some. While I 
 like the wild west approach, many others clearly find it uncomfortable.


With some irony, I count 5 "me toos" out of 10 posts on just on this thread (at
the time of writing. 4 if I'm not being harsh.  50% pure noise and this is a
small thread. So you can count this as a me too too!
