(...) I think I agree. (...) I'm not sure I like this idea - here we are all AFOLs, I see no reason to treat official TLC announcements any different. If we get the rankings right, there should be no need. (...) I would be fairly strongly against (...) (20 years ago, 27-Dec-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) The weights today are global, there is no facility for an admin to adjust weights on a post other than by voting him or herself (or not voting). Nor do I think there should be one. I honestly enjoy some of the debating and whatnot too, but you (...) (20 years ago, 27-Dec-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Huh! So-- if Jake made an announcement about, say, new bulk pack sets in "klassik grey" (or if new colors were switched back to old) and posted to .announce, .color, and .lego, the net result would be a -1 default? I think I like all of the (...) (20 years ago, 27-Dec-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) There will no doubt be a formal announcement for this, well, maybe this is it. Here are what I think the current weights are: [ ".announce" => 2 ], [ ".moc" => 3 ], # Net effect +5 [ ".admin" => -1 ], [ ".off-topic" => -1 ], [ ".debate" => -4 (...)

(...) I believe (as ROSCO mentinoed) that these FTX shortcuts use the Partsref pictures, which have not been updated at least for a 2-3 years, and afaik, there is currently no plan to continue updateing them. (...) Interesting. Cool even! That would (...) (20 years ago, 27-Dec-04, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) OK, just to confirm, you've been using lugnet.robotics for this (not lugnet.robotics.rcx)? I guess what's maybe not generally known is that lugnet.robotics.rcx is actually a newsgroup and not just a hierarchy. Its charter specifically includes (...)

(...) I believe the LDrawPart macro uses images from the Lugnet parts reference, which isn't always up-to-date with the latest official library. Solution is to either get it up to date, or change the macro to use the images from ldraw.org. ROSCO (20 years ago, 26-Dec-04, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

why does this (the shortcut for a skeleton) work: [LDrawPart 6260c01:15] [LDrawPart 6260c01:15] but this(the shortcut for the train wheel holder, wheels and axle completel assembly) doesn't: [LDrawPart 2878c01:0] [LDrawPart 2878c01:0] nor does this (...)
