Maybe post-moderation: people who misbehave (in the eyes of The Moderator) get
one warning, and are blocked out afterwards (from posting, and probably from
subscribing - why load the list server for them?). Blocked persons get _one_
new chance to get onto the list again (again with one last, final warning). To
make it more friendly, a weekly FAQ posting should point this out clearly,
with the reasoning behind it, and should also have the current FAQ's about the
list.

The only problem is that the blacklist might grow out of proportions :-)
