Larry: I think that you are seeing your own role in this in too positive a light, I even perceive that you are trying to dress up your contest with Scott as somehow heroic on behalf of the greater community on your part.

  Re: edventures spam
 
(...) Lugnet isn't spam free, although I *think* it's set up to discourage robots and other automated creepy crawlies.

  The Scott and Larry Show: Call for a Series Finale
 
Admins, please, this has to stop. Despite the expressions of disgust over Scott and Larry's mudslinging from many Lugnetters, they continue it with no regard. Just today Scott posts 9 more responses to Larry's posts, all in a short period of time. (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

  edventures spam

I'm stuck here, because I'm more honest than most. Were the shoe on the other foot, Scott would have no qualms about saying he'd never do it again, even if in his heart of hearts he knew he might.
