  Re: From the mouth of babes and just what is going on!?
 
(...) I agree with Diedre here. Eric - while the duplo joke is funny to you and your friends, and while it can be used as a cute joke once in a while among the same, please reconsider FUT'ing Duplo and using this joke when expressing sincere (...)

  Re: 419 scammer in .robotics
 
(...) What are 419s? "Nigerian Lockbox" is how I've always known that scam and its variants. This is not the first time this has happened. (you need to get out more, I guess...) It's due to the gateway with an external mailing list, which does not (...) (20 years ago, 12-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: From the mouth of babes and just what is going on!?
 
Please don't redirect irrelevant threads to .duplo. I don't think this is an appropriate way to handle behaviour that you presumably consider childish. I've cross-posted this to admin.general as this has happened before eg (URL) Would you please (...) (20 years ago, 12-May-04, to lugnet.duplo, lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  419 scammer in .robotics
 
Todd- Someone's been posting 419s via email in the .robotics newsgroup. I don't know why, or how, except that I know its subscription works differently than the rest of LUGNET. But I thought I'd flag it for you. Anyways, that's a first for me, 419 (...) (20 years ago, 12-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

In lugnet.lego, Marc Nelson, Jr. wrote: [Much snippage] (...) Discuss colors, great. It's the force and vitriol with which it's being done, in my view.

Posting a FUT to this older suggestion partly because it's still a good idea and partly to see if so doing will get Rob to stop threadjacking every new group suggestion or announcement to point out what a good idea it is... :-) For starters (...)

  Re: Update on the Update?
 
(...) We might have an update to post later this week -- depends how it goes this week. There may be some upcoming expansion of curator roles, also depending on how things go this week. --Todd (20 years ago, 10-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Update on the Update?
 
I'd just like to know if there is an update on the re-structuring of Lugnet? And also to give a vow of thanks to Todd and everyone else out there working hard for the betterment of us all. -Lenny (20 years ago, 10-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Membership application apology
 
I've been remiss in my duties lately in processing membership applications, and for that I humbly apologize to all who have been stuck waiting, especially those who wrote to complain and received no personal reply. I believe everyone who has paid (...) (20 years ago, 9-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general)  
 
  Re: paid fee 3 months ago, still waiting to become member!!

  Re: Announcing new Legend!
 
(...) Jake has told me, and I believe he's told the group here on LUGNET, that Consumer Affairs *does* track this information and *does* relay it to the appropriate department. But, I suppose that might not be good enough for people who "can never (...) (20 years ago, 8-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, lugnet.admin.nntp, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: paid fee 3 months ago, still waiting to become member!!
 
Me too.. but not an explanation or apology for the long wait. I dont care about the lousy 10 dollars, this is just no way to treat people. I dont understand why becoming a member has to take this long. If Todd or whoever deals with these things is (...) (20 years ago, 7-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

  paid fee 3 months ago, still waiting to become member!!
 
This is getting a little ridiculous. Paid the membership fee on February 11th and still havent heard a thing from Lugnet. Sent 3 e-mails to different addresses, no reply at all. What the #%$! is going on here? Arjan. (20 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: Color Change - Final Update
 
(...) True, but the only two things we've heard so far were that people were complaining that those three colors didn't "match" the rest of the color pallete, and that focus groups agreed. Not only is the idea that the old grey/brown colors match (...) (20 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Suggestion for thread tree viewing
 
At the moment, threads of more than 100 postings suppress the tree of blue/maroon squares, which is very helpful for navigating. Is the format fixed, or could very large threads split themselves, to cut off large branches (of more than 5 or 10 (...) (20 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.admin.suggestions)
