  Re: New email address - how to?
 
(...) Well, I've now got a new one (thanks Rene). (...) A link on your member page would be good indeed. There is also a link at the bottom left of admin (URL) but really it does need to be more prominent. Tim (18 years ago, 21-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

  New email address - how to?
 
I would like to change my posting email address for Lugnet. Unfortunately I can't find out how. As such I have two requests: 1) Could someone tell me how to do this. 2) Could someone put a link somewhere obvious for future reference. Thanks in (...)

  Re: How to change the "newsgroup" after a message is being posted?
 
(...) Hi Diana! Lugnet doesn't allow editing of messages after they are posted. You can request a message be cancelled, but that's not done very often. The best you can really do in this case is to post a reply to your original message, to the (...) (18 years ago, 6-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Why do pictures in the guide detect as banner adds to Zone Labs/Check Point Integrity
 
(...) It could be that there are settings for ZA that make it quite touchy when it comes to image links. This would block quite a number of useful web links however, so it's probably a setting you do not want in the first place. Just btw., even (...) (18 years ago, 6-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: Why do pictures in the guide detect as banner adds to Zone Labs/Check Point Integrity
 
(...) That's probably it - the fact that it's hosted by a different server. Though, since it's from the same TLD, it shouldn't be an issue. FWIW, my ZA doesn't block any lugnet images. (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Why do pictures in the guide detect as banner adds to Zone Labs/Check Point Integrity
 
(...) I think one reason Zone Labs tries to block certain advertising images may be to prevent using the image to collect information or something like that. Also annoying are some animated images, though those may be separately blockable. (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Why do pictures in the guide detect as banner adds to Zone Labs/Check Point Integrity
 
(...) From my experience with Zone Labs Zone alarm a long time ago, I recall that the pics always were labeled as banner/skyscraper ads. At least, that's what I experienced with ZA Dave K (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Why do pictures in the guide detect as banner adds to Zone Labs/Check Point Integrity
 
There may be a simple explanation for that, although I would rate ZoneLabs as pretty pedantic if this should prove true: Due to a severe issue with a script that generates the guide thumbnail images, I have replaced that script by a solution using (...)

  Re: Why do pictures in the guide detect as banner adds to Zone Labs/Check Point Integrity
 
(...) Uh, no idea! Does it give you any hint as to what would cause an image to be blocked? (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Why do pictures in the guide detect as banner adds to Zone Labs/Check Point Integrity
 
I am using Zone Labs/Check Point Integrity desktop for personal firewalling. Recently (not sure when), the Lugnet set guide pictures have stopped showing up. I just did an experiment and determined they are registering as banner/skyscrapper ads. (...) (18 years ago, 5-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Abusive
 
(...) Once again, by posting to a public forum the topic becomes public property in a sense. If you were to stand on a street corner mumbling your incoherent diatribes, you might possibly get the same sort of reactions. Why are you so surprised when (...)

  Re: Posts disappearing when posted 'in the future'?
 
(...) Hi Anders, AFAIK if your computer's hardware clock itself is inaccurate by large amounts, it *could* damage or omit the time stamp in your message, but normally it's replaced by the news server with the GMT time. In our case depending on what (...) (18 years ago, 4-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Question on which newsgroups to use

But I can't risk to make it a clear statement, otherwise there might be similar requests in the future which are less transparent than your's. Leg Godt! Rene *I'm playing around with various (...)

  Re: Question on which newsgroups to use

Hi Ben, As one of the teller-offerers I've been working on the principal that if there is new information (as in your case) then it is OK to post to both .trains and .marketplace but you should set the followup to marketplace. I base this on (...) (18 years ago, 3-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Question on which newsgroups to use
 
Previously, Big Ben Bricks LLC has posted new product announcements to .trains or other lugnet newsgroups depending on the product. However, It seems like some people have been getting in 'trouble' for announcing mocs and other things for sale in (...) (18 years ago, 3-Sep-06, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Posts disappearing when posted 'in the future'?
 
My computer clock is almost always wrong when I start the computer. If it's some days ahead and I forget to correct it before posting to lugnet, it seems my posts just disappear (or will they magically display when the date finally arrives?). I (...)
