 MR>> do you not know how to twitfilter?

 WV> temporary "fix" until they log in with a different name...

Really, all it boils down to is the Sysops AND the EC, Moderators, or whatever title the person who provides the mail to the sysops not running the networks correctly..

1. If the EC, Moderato, or whatever title of the day detects a message they do    not see fit, they need to delete it before it goes further downsteam and    notify the offending systems sysop so it can be remedied.

2. This EC, Moderator, title of the day, or whatever they call themselves need
   to login and check on their message bases more than once a week, should 
   really be daily.. some of these people you cannot even get ahold of.. 
   if they cannot do this, something needs to be remedied to replace them. 
   if that is'nt an option, then the network should be considered obsolete.

3. The ^^ above mentioned person needs to arrange that every Sysop check in    once weekly in the Sysop area so that everyone can keep on point, If they
   miss a check-in and/or a couple follow up messages they should be put on 
   hold until they pay attention.. 

Heck.. thats really about it.. It's not a "Dumb" sysop issue, It's a "Lazy" sysop issue. and the main issues is with some of the upstream hubs, etc who do not correctly maintain their message networks. whether it be an FTN, QWK, etc.

A simple structure should be laid out by that EC, and explained to every Sysop that gets a feed from that EC.
