Easiest thing to do would be to simply delete everything except for the
past few days. You won't miss much, and anyway I've not seen many folks
reply to posts made more than two days ago :)

There already are two lists -- ShadowRN (which you're on now) and ShadowGM
(which is for GMs to discuss things they don't want their players knowing
about. Rob Hayden was against that list, BTW).
To tell the truth, I don't see the point in splitting the lists up. What
will likely happen is that either one of the lists falls into disuse (just
look at the traffic on ShadowGM) and that the "remaining" list will serve
the same functions as this one, or that both will get the same kinds of
questions, answers, and ideas.
