-------------------
1. ASD on the web is "semi-moderated" in the sense that, there is
no person or person who actively moderates or screens posts;
however, a few "founders" posses administrative control over the
format and content of the website, and they have the power to
delete posts or even entire topics ("discussions") that are patently
offensive or merely obsolete.
B. If someone is spamming or a stalking psychopath, or otherwise
exhibits cretinous behavior, one of the "founders" with administrave
control can prevent them from posting.

Can those posts be googled?
I hope not.
In case some poster regrets a particular post it should be possible to
remove that particular post before it can cause any further damage.

The bad thing about the normal Usenet is that if you just make one
mistake it will be there for up to 10 years and any vicious person can
and will look in to all your posts going back in time searching for the
one particular message to backstab you.
I hope the posts in this new group will remain only in that group and
won't find their way in to different web sites or servers.
