I'd like it best if people could personalise and exchange their own • automatic
bowdlerizers, and am working toward this.

I suggested self bowdlerisation earlier this week, and was shouted down.

Scott,

Give it up! I've been watching this thread for some time and frankly I'm • glad
Todd added the Auction and Admin filter to the main page. Your incessant
whining and pestering is getting very hard to tolerate and I'm glad to • have to
actively search it out rather than be confronted with it at every page • refresh.
How many times and how many ways do you have to be told "NO"?

I can only speak for myself and no one else, but I *do not* want Auction
announcements in any of the groups that I regularly cruise.

This is not an issue with me any longer. My 1st post in this thread stated
that the .acition change does not bother me  - or at least it should have:
http://www.lugnet.com/admin/general/?n=5026

I read them to see
what is going on in that theme as far as building ideas and news goes. If • I
want to see what the latest auctions are doing, I go to that group.

This is just what I said:

I see no
reason allow posting of austion announcements in those groups other than • to
actively flog of ones auction. Why would I want to have my regularly • scheduled
LUGNET reading interrupted to bring me this "important announcement from • XYZ's
LEGO Auction"? If I had the opportunity, I'd make it so that my regular • network
TV shows were commercial free too.

It usually takes quite a bit to rile me up, and frankly you've gotten me • there.
Keep your auction announcements in the proper group and they'll be read. • Spread
them around to the other groups and I'm gone.

Sincerely,

-Duane
