•In 'the inevitable instance' of a situation about to flame up, each moderator will take one side and contact the parties for discussion.
•The moderators will liaise and try to find a compromise for the injured parties.
•If we cannot find a compromise, then we call in a neutral third party. Picked randomly from the forum members with no connection or bias.
.This third party will review the situation as we present it to them and advise the list-owner in order to make an unbiased decision about what actions to take.
