I am fairly new here, but I have an idea on how to make people
happy.  First, create another fanfic mailing list.  Have it be kind of
moderated in that, if someone posts anything *NOT* a fanfic or C&C they
are removed from the list for a set amount of time.  I am not saying get
rid of the list we have, but make a sub list for fanfics and C&C only.
That way, those who use the FFML just for fanfics don't have spam to sort
through.

Here's an idea I got from the Star Wars RPG Mailing List:  It's possible
there for subscribers to set things up so only certain categories of mail
are recieved (e.g. STATS).  Why not do this for the FFML?

BRUTUS: For money, Caesar. He tells me he wants to die rich.
CAESAR: And so he shall. Give him this sack of gold and then strangle him.
