Posting a message to comp.sys.amiga saying, "I second Chuck's concern.
It is important that we not lose our unmoderated group," will not help
ensure the survival of comp.sys.amiga as an unmoderated group!  The people
who make the decisions watch the newsgroup "news.groups" (catchy name,
eh??) for such comments.

If you want to let the Amiga fraternity know how upset you are, post
to comp.sys.amiga.  But if you want your message to be read by those who
will decide the future of comp.sys.amiga, post the message to news.groups.

You can also cross-post to both groups by putting both newsgroup names
on the "Newsgroups:" line (no spaces are allowed between group names!):

        Newsgroups: comp.sys.amiga,news.groups

This will let you vent your feelings of outrage to a sympathetic audience,
while also letting those who make the decisions know that you care.
