  Re: My Stance
 
(...) I agree. However... I think that there were people who felt that way initially, but that many, if not all, have come around to reject that view. And that's a good thing. For the few remaining, can you identify yourselves and post reasons why (...) (26 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Full-on swingage! OK, I see the other colors there too now. Man, this fully rocks! These are nice and very small and _very_ quick to load. (...) Yup, that's great. (...) Fine too! (...)

  Re: My Stance
 
(...) Me too. (...) Not sure why he needs to be very careful, since the decision years from now whether or not to banish someone else will still be Todd's decision to make, not mine or yours or anyone else's (unless Todd decides to make it someone (...)

  Re: My Stance
 
(...) It's very difficult -- and I'm not even going to try -- to sum everything up in a nice simple pat statement (not that you're asking for one), since, to various extents, I agree with almost everything that everyone here has said. My opinions (...) (26 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general) ! 
 
  Re: My Stance
 
(...) <snip? (...) OK quick question(1). Now I don't think many/any of us know much of Matthew other than he has some personal issues to work out and that he likes to cause havoc. So here's the question. Assume that Matthew is say 14 and he is (...) (26 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: My Stance
 
(...) D'oh. I don't know where I got the impression that he was fairly new (to posting, at least, because there's no way to tell how long someone's been lurking). That does color things slightly- after all, it means he's been here long enough to (...) (26 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: A reixamination of what happened.
 
(...) That would be censorship. No. (...) Even if it _didn't_ have LEGO material, they wouldn't get banned simply for posting a site address, no. Hopefully of course they wouldn't be posting such an address with malicious intentions to injure others (...) (26 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: My Stance
 
(...) Agreed. I went and looked using the search function. I may have missed some but I found a number of posts from Matthew going quite a ways back. Some were hyperbolic, but none (that I found, but I may have missed some) were vitriolic. Nothing (...) (26 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: My Stance
 
(...) I'm sure the phrase "new member" must means different things to different people -- perhaps two weeks to one person, two months to another, or even two years to another. In any case, for the record, Matthew's first post here was on April 9, (...) (26 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.admin.general)

Larry wrote a very friendly introduction to LUGNET and made a lot of good suggestions for links to visit.

  Re: Todd! Admin and owner

I also assume you want specifics as to what I don't like about the reasoning for banning Matthew not reasoning for not liking Matthew. It is my feeling that there (...)

G'day Mike, I've already posted my personal points on this issue: (URL) I'll reinforce them for my part... (...) Why should the ToS of this site be relevant to off-site content?
