  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) I would expect that any old NNTP server can be plugged in instead, if the one Todd originally selected doesn't support access by username and password. (...) Why should that be necessary? Shouldn't it be enough to hook the password checker of (...) (14 years ago, 3-Nov-10, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Forum shift
 
(...) As I recall, the NNTP engine for LUGNET wasn't something that Todd custom-wrote (like the web interface), but was a build of some already-existing implementation, which could be why it's a little less accessible. I remember hunting around for (...) (14 years ago, 2-Nov-10, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Question Regarding Accounts
 
Hey. I've had this account for the last seven years (admittedly I was a tad too inexperienced for a place such as this) and to be honest I would like to either have it deleted, rendered inactive, or have the mailing address changed. This account's (...) (14 years ago, 1-May-10, to lugnet.admin.general)

  (Re)activating Lugnet? (Was: The future of LDraw?)
 
(...) I must admit that I didn't know that it isn't possible to get a membership on Lugnet anymore. That's not good. (...) Luckily I keep plenty of backups - also of mission-critical cookies. (...) Yes. What will it take to allow people to get (...) (15 years ago, 20-Mar-10, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Password Change
 
Just as a quick note: There is now a link to the Password Change page on the right hand side of the member profile page (visible when you are signed in and go to the "my" Link). Hope that helps ;) Regards, Jerry (15 years ago, 10-Mar-10, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Password Change
 
(...) Hi Michael, actually, all you need to do is go to the (not immediately obvious) (URL) You will see the link on the page where you sign in - but not easily thereafter. I am taking that as a hint to probably add another button on the profile (...) (15 years ago, 10-Mar-10, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Password Change
 
(...) This question still needs to be answered. I recently was able to get my password reset and log back on to update my set list. However, how does one go about changing one's own password!?! The note I got from Rene when he emailed me my new (...) (15 years ago, 9-Mar-10, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: email settings
 
(...) That worked. Thanks! David (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Posting-times?
 
(...) Thanks for replying, Jerry. As you can see by the three-year gap between posts, this isn't exactly a high-priority problem for me--more of a curiosity. But I appreciate you taking the time to respond, and I don't doubt that you've worked to (...) (15 years ago, 4-Feb-10, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Posting-times?
 
(...) Hi Dave, no, you are no nuisance at all - I am still not happy about this effect and can only confirm again that with pressing the "post" button in the web interface, the corresponding message is posted almost instantly to the news system but (...)

  Re: email settings
 
(...) Hi David, interesting effect we are seeing here; it turns out that LUGNET stores your posting email address outside of your normal user profile. Remember that you need to authorize any email address you wish to use for posting separately? It (...) (15 years ago, 31-Jan-10, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: email settings
 
Sooooo...did anyone ever find anything out about this? The LUGNET newsgroups still have my old email address, even though my personal data contains the current, correct one. David (15 years ago, 31-Jan-10, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Posting-times?
 
(...) I hate to be a nuisance, but was this ever resolved? Posting still seems to take an inordinately long time. Just checking. Dave! (15 years ago, 16-Jan-10, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: What am I missing?
 
(...) I too ran into this same problem. I was unable to login to lugnet using Safari 3, but can login successfully using Firefox 3. I was able to login in the past with Safari 2 with no problems. Might this be a bug in webkit ? Ray (15 years ago, 7-Oct-09, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.faq, FTX)
 
  Re: LUGNET outage on July 4th/5th, 2009

  Question regarding real names
 
Regarding this post: (URL) I thought that Lugnet has required a person's real name when posting to show up in the post header information area. Did this requirement change at some point? I'm just curious since 'NXTelectronee' sure sounds like a (...) (15 years ago, 5-Jun-09, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
 
  notes on Set Reference for 6091 and 6098
 
The set reference for 6098, under Notes, says "Ages 8-12". Box images at these two sites show "7-12"... (URL) original 6091 box in my possession says "8-12". My suspicion is that the age difference relates to where those sets were being sold (but (...) (15 years ago, 29-May-09, to lugnet.admin.general)
