I really haven't been following this particular ongoing flame war, but
this has got to be one of the most ludicrous ideas I've ever heard --
there's simply too much traffic, even at this late stage of the Apple
II's lifetime, to even consider moderating the comp.sys.apple2
hierarchy.  Doing so would effectively kill interesting discussion and
swamp the poor guy who ended up being moderator.

In my opinion, moderation is only appropriate for groups like
comp.binaries.mac and comp.sys.mac.announce that see relatively few
posts and are not primarily discussion oriented.
