 | | LDD worse than before?
|
|
Not sure if it is just me, but has the new version of LDD gone a little crazy? I have been trying to place a 4x4 plate on top of a square made with two 1x2 and two 1x4 bricks, and it will not line up whatsoever. It has the plate half a stud off each (...)

(...) Does your username and password also work for a NNTP connection to Lugnet? (That would be new - but very helpful - to me.) Or are you talking about the web interface? Play well, Jacob (14 years ago, 30-Oct-10, to lugnet.general)

(...) As of just a few days ago, I've been a LUGNET member for 10 years. In that time I've posted hundreds of messages, and I've never once had to use any kind of "authentication email." I'm not sure what you're doing wrong to get something like (...) (14 years ago, 30-Oct-10, to lugnet.general)

(...) Do you really think that adding moderation to a dead forum will revive it? That's the equivalent of trying to bring someone back from a coma by reading them the ten commandments.
