 Thanks for your explanation.  I would like to propose a new moderated ng 
 (with a name that would add a suffix of "mod" or "moderated") to the 
 original 
 ng that is currently being swamped by cross posts. 
  
 All articles that are directed to the new ng and not cross posted would go 
 directly to the new ng with no other moderator intervention. 
  
 All articles cross posted to either the new or old ng would go directly 
 to the old ng (which would continue to be swamped by cross posts) 
  with no other moderator intervention. 
  
 There shouldn't be any complaint about censorship since both cross posted 
 articles and non cross posted articles would get posted. 
  
 I'd appreciate any advice about this proposition.
