In lugnet.market.theory, Todd Lehman writes:

- Within reason (this is highly subjective, but I'm sure we'd all recognize
abuse when we saw it), auction announcements or updates CAN be posted to
lugnet.off-topic.test -- but only for the purposes of diagnosing posting
problems.  I suppose that technically in this case, the announcement
wouldn't truly be an announcement, but the charter for .off-topic.test
probably still should be modified to account for this.  To avoid flamage,
it's probably best to cancel such a test-post after diagnosing the problem,
or to use .market.auction as the test area (weighing the two options based
on minimizing the maximum disruption, I suppose).

Please reconsider providing a mechanism for cancelling web originated posts
that is more automated than "send Todd a note in email and hope he sees it".

  Let's define what an auction announcement/update is
 
New thread here...on the coattails of a controversial thread in .admin.general and in response to Frank Filz's post: (URL) define (as best we can) what constitutes an auction announcement or update. Then we can link to that definition from the Terms (...) (25 years ago, 14-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.faq, lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)
