That's a curious reaction. The discussion has been a little more
contentious than usual, but nothing really worse than some other arguments
we've had. The fact that Paul actually does control the list makes for a
very courteous and tolerent culture.
Meanwhile, the lack of rules on O&S (for example) results in open warfare.
Don't believe that Scott has suddenly assumed control of his list because
it's quiet over there. It's only a stalemate. No one can say anything
without provoking a fight, and word behind the scenes is that in-fighting
has gutted the list.
So, why don't these "senior" Who fans refuse to participate over there? Or
why hasn't the recent brawl on alt.music.who offended them into a
withdrawal? Hmmm.
Curiouser and curiouser (to coin a phrase).
