Presumably, if you find you can't reach the outages list because their
listserv has had an outage, you just come up on NANOG like before?

OK, for the purposes of this discussion, we'll postulate that in fact,
the posting was indeed off-topic...

But if he takes the supposedly off-topic stuff away, what "real" content
is he taking away?  You can't have it both ways.  If it's sufficiently
"real" that you're concerned about it being taken to a different list,
you shouldn't have labelled it off-topic earlier.
