(...) I understand that you're acting in good faith and make no accusations against you. However, since this information was apparently available to the public before being posted to LUGnet, I have a hard time seeing how it's not editorial. It's (...)

(...) This is so far from editorial control that light from editorial control takes ten million years just to reach here. The reaons were purely _legal_ and by specific request from TLC. Editorial control would be if TLC requested removal of, say, (...) (26 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Prolly. But removing the whole thing is "less" control than excising words but leaving the rest. Or so I seem to recall Prodigy's lawyer telling me about 15 years ago when I first started looking into this topic. And "less" control, especially (...)

I just went and looked at the 2001 set info tree and with all the cancels, that tree is dust. The tree view for me showed a bunch of disconnected posts with no hierarchy at all. Is that an inevitable outcome of wholesale cancellation or is there a (...) (26 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I don't really have a problem with your reasons for canceling the various posts that began this thread. My problem is that TLC seems to be asking you to replace their clothing when *they* are the ones walking about nude! If they have a problem (...)

And they use e-mail, which makes things go faster. (...) (26 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.admin.general)

I've noticed an increase of identical messages that are posted twice. Todd, Is it possible to do a simple check to see whether the same message has been posted within the last few minutes and then discard the second one? Optimize well, Andreas (...) (26 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
