Well, this mail is in regards to a query as to whether there is any need for a moderator panel.
In my opinion, Yes, there is. The idea of putting a group entirely into the hands of members looks great theoretically, but if implemented will lead to nothing but chaos.
We have democracy in India, right? Does that mean that each one of us takes part in governance? No. There is only a tiny fraction of population, called as Government, which is formally responsible to the country.
Having a moderator panel doesn’t mean that we distrust our members. It means that we care for our friends who are a part of our online family and wish to spare them from bulky forwards, virus threats and in-consequential one-line mails.
Besides, members can - and do - leave a group as per their whims and wishes... A moderator cannot, or at least is not expected to! He/she is a part of its philosophy.
Before concluding, I wish to note that such mails indicate a genuine interest in group activities. We always welcome such open-minded discussion as well as constructive criticism!
