I run several Old sewing Machine groups, mostly now rehomed happily here. We moderate just about everyone, and regard this as a necessary method, as otherwise the levels of misinformation, snarkiness, and just plain "I want my say" can get out of hand really quickly. The phrase we use is "This is not a democracy - if you want to run a group, perhaps you should start one for yourself.."
Works for us <grin>
