If you really want a moderated newsgroup, you have one.  It's called
rec.arts.ascii.  You probably just have to get someone to agree to
moderate it.  Don Bertino was the last known moderator and postings
were few and far between, so he just seems to have let it die without
turning it over to anyone else.

Help yourself.  It didn't work too well the first time, but maybe
you would have better luck.
