This is all bullshit. The reason net.personals is such a good idea is that nobody has to go through anybody else (like a moderator) to get "set up" with some dream-body. The reason it is such a bad idea is that nobody will post to it, because nobody wants to be made a fool of on the net, and because it is ridiculous to have somebody moderate something like this.
