  Re: Change in LUGNET news appearance
 
(...) Dave, is it possible that this relates only to users who have set up several - potentially invalid - email addresses? I have just tried the procedure you laid out and it works fine with my account (otherwise I wouldn't have been so sure about (...) (19 years ago, 14-Dec-07, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Change in LUGNET news appearance
 
Indeed, it looks like there's an issue with the automatic posting ID setup. I believe that it's supposed to pull a valid posting setup with your member account, which should prevent you from having to fill out the form every time, and also avoid the (...)

  Re: No authentication posts, no posts from the newsreader?
 
(...) Related problem maybe (I haven't been following this thread): I've sent two messages today via NNTP and no authentication posts have shown up as of yet. First message sent 2 hours ago. I am posting this message from the web interface. Thanks, (...) (19 years ago, 14-Dec-07, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

(...) Innnnteresting. Sounds like it's not giving you the cookie that it ought to be giving you. Hm. Not to give you the runaround, but try this: 1) Log out 2) Clear cookies (in case any are left) 3) Don't log in, but try posting to off-topic.test. (...)

  Re: Change in LUGNET news appearance
 
Looks like the issue is the fact that your member page lists a different email address than the one you're using. Since there are 3 separate emails in the membership form (and you only have two listed), you should be able to add your *posting* email (...) (19 years ago, 14-Dec-07, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) This is my situation: 1 - I sign in with the "Sign in" button (and select "keep me logged in until I sign out manually") 2 - I click on "new post" (or "reply") 3 - It asks if I read the terms of use and if I have filled the news-posting setup (...)

(...) Hi Dave, the average ad works on a pay-per-click scheme, however it is pointless for anyone to just click on several ads in a row - anti click-fraud mechanisms with affiliate programs prevent this from generating cash for LUGNET and will (...)

  Re: Change in LUGNET news appearance
 
(...) This is an excellent idea, and it's entirely in line with what countless other web-forums do already. If it helps to keep LUGNET afloat, I say great! When does LUGNET get "credit" for an ad?
