  Re: Suspend me as well (was Susp. of Chris and Terry)
 
(...) Oh My Goodness--so anything that happens on another website but pertains to someone who posts on LUGNET can get you 'timed out' from LUGNET? Is this an unstated-but-official policy? So if I were to post something in my blog at Sparky's Space (...) (20 years ago, 5-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Suspend me as well (was Susp. of Chris and Terry)
 
(...) The contest is unique - it was a public attempt to remove someone from Lugnet. I feel that its flagrant-ness, plus Chris's obmission that it was not intended as a joke, move it from the 'only on this site' situation. I feel that it contradicts (...)

  Re: Suspend me as well (was Susp. of Chris and Terry)
 
(...) Okay, I was holding off replying, but the night is getting short, so I am going to try to explain this to the best of my ability... Sorry it's a "novel". First of all, I can see many points of views/sides to this story. 4 that I will touch on, (...) (20 years ago, 5-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX) ! 
 
  Re: Issue regarding Moderation of Folders
 
(...) Oh yeah - that makes total sense, I guess I was more curious as to why it took a lil' longer (or forever, either or :) for the folders with them to get an "OK" stamp by whoever does the stamping. Iain (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Suspension of Chris Magno and Terry P
 
(...) An excellent question, Ross! I would suppose it depends on the nature of the admin's suspension. If a conflict of interest is present, then I believe input should be limited. We're in new territory lately, so I can't give a truly official (...) (16 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: wish's
 
(...) By the way, I don't mean to imply that the line isn't ever arbitrary. Maybe sometimes it is -- unintentionally, of course. This is something that needs wringing out. --Todd (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Suspension of Chris Magno and Terry P
 
(...) I have another question Todd: If an admin has their posting privileges suspended, do they still have input on decisions about other member's posting privs? ROSCO (16 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: wish's
 
(...) Wow, that was more than I was expecting. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts and for being candid. (...) I think you are definitely onto something here, in that perceptions are that the line is sometimes set arbitrarily. I don't (...) (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Issue regarding Moderation of Folders
 
(...) That is a tough one...from past experience BS questions [1] are usually posted in lugnet.publish--but you're right, there is no clear place to post them. (...) I've heard a rumor (and I don't have the specifics on this) that video clips aren't (...) (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: wish's - Contest canceled
 
(...) Todd, Thanks for the reply. I was referring to all involved in these recent threads. Thanks for checking. I was not suggesting that the folks in this thread have their posting priveleges suspended, but rather we each voluntarily suspend (...) (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Suspension of Chris Magno and Terry P
 
(...) Sage advice. (...) You raise a good point there. In the future this needs to be taken under advisement if things become personal for whatever reason. (...) You ask a lot of good, tough questions in this post, and these being discussed in the (...) (16 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: wish's - Contest canceled
 
(...) By *all* do you really mean all? As in shutting the discussion groups down for a period of time? That would be awfully unfair to innocent bystanders. Or do you mean all involved in these recent threads? (...) Well, Larry himself has said that (...) (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Issue regarding Moderation of Folders
 
Hi all, (Uh, I couldn't post in lugnet.announce.brickshelf, so I have no idea where else to post this. Hrm...) A few weeks ago, I started an account on Brickshelf to display some of my projects. About half of them have videoclips in them. Within an (...) (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: wish's - Contest canceled
 
(...) Hi Kevin, I'll be the first to say that Larry has a legitimate gripe. The question is, can Lenny bring the very offending action in JLUG to lugnet, and then punish Chris on lugnet for the offense? Lenny's justification for "indefinitly (...)

  Re: wish's
 
(...) Hi Todd, Here's why I see that certain administrators are hurting Lugnet: They're operating in the shadows and there's no transparency to the process. The rules aren't clearly defined, so there's a lot of murkiness as to how they operate. (...) (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general)

Iain Hendry wrote in message ... (...) out of (...) work (...) To make the parallel true, though, the porn would have to name or otherwise specifically involve either your boss or a co-worker, and name your place of work (as Chris's post on JLUG (...)

  Re: wish's - Contest canceled
 
(...) I would have to agree, although, if it were my board (thank goodness it isn't) I'd probably have ended up banning a couple of folks for a while (myself included, I do seem to have some bad days).... But as I've said before.. not my pond. (20 years ago, 4-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Suspension of Chris Magno and Terry P
 
(...) Lenny, Given the new information about that the contest was not created on lugnet, and the fact that news of the contest was not brought to lugnet by Chris, I decided to reread the articles you cited for justifying Chris' "indefinite (...)
