  Profile - Inputing websites?
 
To Whom IT May Concern, I am trying to clean up my profile on the people side of LUGNET, and I am trying to update my website information. It seems to point to www.lugnet.com/people and then the website I inputed. Is this a glitch or something, or (...) (23 years ago, 20-Feb-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Totally inappropriate pic link given with no warning whatever.
 
(...) Yes, why indeed... I would posit that you would have served the entire community a lot better by dropping a note to Kevin about this pic instead of posting a link to it to ***.GENERAL***, for goodness sake, with nary a word of warning that (...)

(...) If it does not have an link to some site selling things or an offer it can't be traditional spam so I'd e-mail him back and ask. Sounds like a big misunderstanding, probably due to lack of language skills. /Tobbe (URL) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: E-mails due to Lugnet inventories
 
<snipped> (...) I've gotten wacky emails that are out of touch with reality before. My response is simply to ignore them. Delete, move on.

  E-mails due to Lugnet inventories
 
In the past 24 hours I have received three e-mails from a Michael Chiaravalloti (theoliver50@hotmail.com) requesting that I send him, free of charge, several pieces from sets I have inventoried and posted to lugnet.db.inv. I am not entirely sure how (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Possibility of lugnet.db.inv.discussion?
 
Was there ever any decision on this issue? We now have a number of threads about a tool to create inventories in lugnet.db.inv. This may technically violate the charter for that group, but there doesn't seem to be any more appropriate place to post (...) (23 years ago, 17-Feb-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
