  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) That is true. (...) I don't think that it explicitly says the opposite, but regardless, you have a point. On the other hand, if Larry divulged personal information about you without knowing that it was private, do you think it is accurate to (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) Assuming the information is "personal" rather than "common knowledge". (...) I'm not sure what Ken means here, some elaboration might be helpful. What is it that I've been picky about, exactly? And how does my being "picky" correlate to the (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) There is no clause that say’s it’s ok to divulge personal information if you didn’t know the person did not want it divulged. In fact it say’s exactly the opposite. If you don’t specifically have permission it is wrong. Friends could perhaps (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) Ok, I'm looking at the ToU agreement: (URL) do you mean that his divulging of your association with LEGO without your permission violated point #6 of the Discussion Group Terms and Conditions? That is to say, do you feel your privacy was (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) No, but divulging personal info without permission is obviously a violation of TOU (...) Hurtful no, but an obvious attack especilly when he himself has been so picky within debate forums where there should be more latitude for this type of (...)

  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
Hi Ken, (...) We're talking about this post: (URL) you feel that his associating your name with LEGO Brand Retail was a personal attack? Did you find his wording involving the words "messing up" hurtful? Was it the act of replying publicly to make a (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) Thank you Todd, This has nothing to do with the exchange between Larry and Ken, but since I wanted to comment on your last paragraph I see no better place to post. As a member I appreciate you stating that a "feeling" is valid, and that it is (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)  
 
  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) What can be more clear than the original post? Followed by the fact that instead of a simple appology to the library and NILTC that he had no buissnes spoiling their post he continues to make excusses and avoid responsibility. Conduct quite (...)

  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) Hi Ken, I don't think David is looking for a fight. I think many of us are curious about this because it is all so public. You obviously felt that Larry's comments were a personal attack against you, and first I want to acknowledge to you that (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) SNIP (...) I don't care what you think. I've detailed the awnsers to every one of your questions elsewhere in the thread. Others have agreed with me. This is not a debate forum. If you are looking for a fight move on. Ken (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: The whole story?
 
(...) This is what I thought at the onset of the problem. I thought just because his name was every where in the community he was to be respected. From talking to others I've found out I was wrong. Respect is earned not granted because one is there. (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: The whole story?
 
(...) No I passed along public information as witnessed by the fact I found it throught normal public channels. (...) Don't know what they wanted announced but the fact is the horse was out of the barn. (...) My assessment is the fact that you are (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: "Some pigs are more equal than other pigs"
 
(...) I don't see how you could construe it as a personal attack. He explicitly said that he thought you WEREN'T responsible for the error. Besides, even if he DID think you were responsible, it was him pointing out the error, not accusing you of (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: The whole story?
 
(...) wow, I guess I've been away for a while. I'm not even following this thread - I read only Lar's and this one. But it's enough for me to see that there's rudeness being flung toward those who deserve the community's respect. This is directed at (...)

  Re: The whole story?
 
Snipped a lot of stuff to get to the crux. (...) So you're not denying that you did in fact pass around unannounced information? (regardless of source, it was unannounced, right?) (...) Irrelevant. Was it unannounced at the time? If so, are you (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: "fired"?
 
(...) I've addressed this complete with quotes from Lugnet polocies and updates. It's not a debate. Ken (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "fired"?
 
(...) Technically, the "no baiting/no bickering" policy isn't new, it's been in place for a while, and we treat it as part of the ToS although we acknowledge that the TOU document should be revised to include that material. (...) Bingo. That was (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: The whole story?
 
(...) You are pathetic. I guess your apology wasn’t worth the keystrokes it took to enter it. The manager had in his hands printouts of my posts. (...) I don't have to say it. It's there for everyone to refere back to. (...) That info came from (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: "fired"?
 
(...) All I know is what I ws told. I said I didn't mention anythiing that wasn't public knowledge and the reply was "That doesn't matter" Ken (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: "fired"?
 
(...) This seems a bit misplaced... How did Larry violate the TOU? By bringing up your employment? By correcting the library's wording? By saying that he didn't think you were the one responsible for the wording? For a few grammar and spelling (...) (20 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
