Lines: 16 "Each site guru" does not necessarily have the authority to allow or prevent people access to USENET. Complaints about an individual's postings should probably be directed to the management at the site and not the SA. The SA could speak to his management on behalf of complainers that a user of the machine should be prevented from accessing USENET, but I don't think (unless s/he has been specifically given that power) s/he should be expected to take it upon his/her own to determine access. There might be a situation where the supervisor of an SA is posting obnoxious articles -- what could the SA do in that case, order his/her boss of the net? -- It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how I keep from goin' under.
