Since some people can't seem to understand that votes for new
newsgroups should never be posted, perhaps changing the voting rules
as follows would help: (I know there are two similar proposed sets of
rules for newsgroup creation, and that the process is really more
anarchy than not.)
Any vote posted for creating a new newsgroup shall count as
two votes against creating that newsgroup. The same person will be
allowed to mail a single vote to the vote counter as well.
Any vote posted against creation of a new newsgroup shall be
ignored by the vote counter, except any vote mailed to the vote
counter will be ignored.
Discussion on newsgroup name and proposed running of the
newsgroup is allowed, however it should not contain an explicit vote
on whether the newsgroup should be created or not.
