(...) Not sure which forums you visit but they must be unusually obtuse. Just about everywhere I visit tells you which threads have new posts since you last visited and an unread topics page. --snip-- (...) Tim (15 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Err, how am I supposed to remember which "dozens of threads" I visited yesterday? Most "forum" software seems pretty aggressive about not showing visited/unvisited links. I don't spend a lot of time in forums, but the only useful one I've (...) (15 years ago, 17-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I'd see LDraw getting a forum system with most aspects of the bulletin board system like user accounts instead of emails *but* having a threaded layout like here on LUGNET. I myself do not know anybody who uses LDraw or even LEGO for that (...) (15 years ago, 16-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

Hi again! I've done some more Lego modelling! This time I'm playing with the Lego City Police Car. I've created some renders using POV-Ray and I've put the LDR/MLCAD files and various other 3D formats of the model on my website. See the following (...) (15 years ago, 16-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) I'm reading LUGNET through a newsreader - Outlook Express - which is the same as my email program. I donwload all new posts in a batch (much, much, MUCH, faster than loading web pages) and then I can read the posts at my leisure, I don't even (...) (15 years ago, 16-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) The bottom line is that LUGNET needs to change how it handles users. At a minimum the authentication emails have got to go. I'm a member and I use the web interface so I can just log in and skip most of the annoying things (e.g. entering (...) (15 years ago, 16-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Yeah, you're probably right. :) I don't even notice that I enter "to" here in the Name and E-mail fields (the rest of my name and e-mail is auto-filled by IE) and check that "I have carefully read... blah, blah" checkbox; that has become a (...) (15 years ago, 16-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad)
