    Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Ross Crawford
   (...) No, it bothers me because (as happened in this case) an email to the Lugnet admins does not reach ALL Lugnet admins, and one of the admins that was "out of the loop" reverted my changes. While not a problem in this case, I can see a potential (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Chris Phillips
   (...) It seems that NONE of the admins received your e-mail, because the implication I've been reading is that NONE of them would have told you to go ahead. But the point is, you shouldn't need the admins to tell you when you are crossing that line, (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.admin.general)
   
        Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Ross Crawford
   (...) Well, that's even worse, and should be fixed. (...) No, that's a different point entirely. (...) I don't think anyone had a problem with Dave reverting the pics, do you? (...) At least (URL) one person did>, and preferred to email the admins (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)  
   
        Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Chris Phillips
     (...) A point which is still apparently lost on you? (...) So you sent e-mail to the admins, and then in the absence of a response you assumed that you had administrative approval to alter somebody else's content? No problem. Sure. (...) Under the (...)

         Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Ross Crawford
      (...) No. The admins will determine if I crossed any line, and take action as necessary. (...) Firstly, that has nothing to do with the point I was making about wanting ALL admins to be "in the loop" when someone "contacts admin". And secondly, the (...)

      "Chris Phillips" <drvegetable@comcast.net> wrote in message news:JDqEKz.JzF@lugnet.com... (...) Chris ... I think you are trying to do little more than argue an argument to it's unarguable end. That is why Ross Crawford redirected it to .debate (...) (18 years ago, 20-Feb-07, to lugnet.admin.general)
    
         Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Chris Phillips
     (...) Unfortunately, I believe you are correct. (...) I don't know his motives any better than I assume you do, but it seems to me that he moved it to .debate in order to marginalize my attempts to steer this discussion back toward the central issue (...)

        Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Peter F. Guenther
     (...) So it's OK for you to abuse administrative privilege, as long as only one or two people are bothered by it? Especially if one of the two is a person that a significant people on LUGNET feel it's OK to bully? I just have to post here to say I (...)

         Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Timothy P. Smith
     (...) Gimme a break. This is a prank gone wrong, not an abuse of power. Deleting all of a member's posts, or breaking links in a way that couldn't be restored, that would be an abuse. This was actually a little bit funny (and a little mean, I (...) (18 years ago, 20-Feb-07, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX) ! 
   
        Re: Technic sidebar thingie Rene Hoffmeister
   This is directed to all people who would like to see sanctions against Ross. (...) I am so sorry that I haven't received Ross' and Eric's emails regarding this matter (both sent before Bob's posting), because if I would have received one of them or (...)

        Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Ross Crawford
   (...) Thank you for clarifying your position Rene. I also think it's worth clarifying my statement above. As a curator at Lugnet, I will try my best to act responsibly, and I cannot envisage any set of circumstances that would cause me to ever (...)

        Re: Technic sidebar thingie —Chris Phillips
   (...) Thank you, Rene, for issuing a formal statement about the resolution of this incident, and to Dave for filling in some details. In retrospect, this was the missing link which publicly clarifies the official stance on this issue. It is good to (...) (18 years ago, 21-Feb-07, to lugnet.admin.general)
