  Re: Change in News Display Behavior
 
Update: The list Todd spotted has now also been cleared of the poster name display if visitor is not signed in. I have now disabled the link to the raw message for non-signed-in users as well. Hope that helps. Thanks, Jerry (10 years ago, 15-Dec-14, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Change in News Display Behavior
 
(...) Hi Todd, yes correct, I only took out the Author field from the message display and the "name" field from the list view - however you seem to have spotted at least one more place that I have not covered, so I'll probably spend some more time (...)

  Re: Change in News Display Behavior
 
(...) Hi Jerry, Thanks for the update. Point of clarification: This is only for the web view, yes? And specifically, only the field called "Author"? I see that the "From" and "X-Real-Life-Name" headers of the raw NNTP message, e.g. (URL) still (...) (10 years ago, 15-Dec-14, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Change in News Display Behavior
 
All, due to privacy concerns raised by a few individuals, the news display has been modified slightly. Going forward, only registered and signed-in members will be able to see the "Author" field of news posts. For visitors and search engines, this (...)

  Please add LUGNET Color Reference to Guide homepage
 
Hey, I just noticed that LUGNET's Color Reference: (URL) is missing from the links on the Guide entry page: (URL) Here's the original announcement for the color reference: (URL) Obviously it's out of date at this point, but I still find it useful (...)

(...) That's not a terrible idea. Open up the database area to input from all members. Although I have some concerns that the existing input methods may not be terribly user-friendly. Steve (12 years ago, 17-Dec-12, to lugnet.admin.general)  
 
  Please add game/set 3853
 
Please add game 'Banana Balance' #3853, to the Lugnet set reference. Front of box says 2-4 players, ages 6+, 5-15 (minutes I presume) Back of box says: 1 buildable LEGO Dice, 48 LEGO pieces, Rules booklet. No obvious price, but I'm guessing (...) (12 years ago, 30-Oct-12, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I took a look at the archives of the debian-security-announce mailing-list from 2001 up to today. I couldn't find a single security report on CNEWS (and only one 2001 local vulnerability in INN). Play well, Jacob (13 years ago, 27-Jun-11, to lugnet.admin.general)

Hi all, my apologies, I am indeed monitoring the forum, but have had quite a bit of workload recently and thus only noticed these posts when working through my backlog (luckily I have subscribed to a few newsgroups by email and do get notifications (...)

  Weird issue signing in?
 
I seem to be having weird issues signing in to Lugnet. When I go to the sign-in page, it displays the ID/password fields, but also has "Ross, you are already signed in. Did you want to sign out?" at the top, when I'm definitely signed out. In IE9 I (...) (13 years ago, 21-May-11, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Forum shift

Apologies, I wasn't talking about totally overhauling the NNTP system, I was talking about using what's available-- IE, the member passwords, which are the only passwords currently on the LUGNET interface to my knowledge.

  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.
