  Re: Compromised Functionality on Lugnet and Brickshelf?
 
(...) Point taken. There are a number of issues that LUGNET is struggling with, but this certainly is one of them. (...) Left that dangling... I agree that it doesn't. Personally I think it might be desireable to not consider posts that didn't get (...) (19 years ago, 13-Apr-05, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Compromised Functionality on Lugnet and Brickshelf?

(...) Again - in my opinion - yes. Lugnet has already been besieged by some serious challenges in the past 18 months, most of which were natural and forseeable consequences of a community that loved its small-village feel enough that it did (...)
