LUGNET News-Posting Setup Form


From:

This is what you use when you post news messages. If you use use a newsreader program (for example, Netscape's Messenger, Forté's Agent or Free Agent, MicroPlanet's Gravity, or Microsoft's Outlook Express), the information you provide below must exactly match your newsreader's profile, or else the server won't be able to recognize or accept messages from you.

Generally speaking, the first two boxes below should contain your real-life name and your real e-mail address. You may use a nickname or pseudonym in the name box below (although it is discouraged), and you may use a spamblock version of your real e-mail address in the e-mail box below (but you must not obscure it beyond recognition by a human).

(Kids, make sure you have permission from a parent or guardian first before giving out any personal information.)

Name:  

E-mail Address:  

Your Organization is your company, school, or Internet Service Provider, etc. Some people list their geographical location as well. The Organization field is optional and may be left blank.

Organization:  

If you have more than one Internet Service Provider or news configuration, you can fill out and submit this form once for each.


Real-Life Name:

Your real-life name will appear automatically in all the messages you post to this service, even if you give a different name for your news-posting identity. This is done using a special message header called X-Real-Life-Name.

Your true e-mail address (if different from your news-posting e-mail address) will be kept private. However, if you do use a spamblock in your news identity, your true e-mail address must still be reasonably clear to a human, even if it is unclear to a spambot. In other words, you must not conceal your real-life name or your real e-mail address from other users of this service.

(Kids, make sure you have permission from a parent or guardian first before giving out any personal information.)

True Real-Life Name  
(First name first):  

True E-mail Address  
(No Spamblock):  

If you wish to discuss LEGO® toys using a pseudonym or screen-name only, there are other places on the Internet where that sort of thing is permitted, and you should seek those out instead.


Posting Preferences

These options are useful if you will be using LUGNET's web interface to post messages.
 
E-mail me copies of messages I post from the web interface.

 
Keep my information in web browser cookie on my local machine so that I don't have to retype it whenever I post from the web interface.



Permission to Participate

Once again, it's important to stress: Kids, make sure you have permission from a parent or guardian before submitting this form! Select one of the following:
 
I am 18 years of age or older.
 
I am not yet 18 years of age. I have the permission and approval of my parent(s) or legal guardian(s) to fill out this form and to provide personal information about myself. I am not submitting information without their knowledge and consent.


All Set?

Finally, we take this service very seriously and ask that you do the same. Please indicate your commitment to helping keep this a special place:

I swear that all the information I am submitting on this page is correct and that I am not submitting any false, fraudulent, incomplete, or deceptive information.
