  Re: It is time to ban JAL.
 
(...) Well, I was hoping someone wouldn't waste their time building just that list. Seriously, where does it get us? You missed my instances of a certain 3-letter word...are you sure you don't want to make a LUGNET page listing all of the violations (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) If I had never responded to a post with a "mee too", now would be the time to start. Well-said, Ed. And a huge bucket o' thanks to both Todd and Suz. Cheers, - jsproat (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) by (...) ending (...) expect (...) will (...) I don't think enough could be said in praise of the efforts of Todd and Suz. LUGNET has been a huge success since its inception.

  Re: It is time to ban JAL.
 
(...) As it turns out, I've just received word that JAL *has* been banned. You can consider me to be "voluntarily banning" myself as well until this is changed, although I would consider it to be more of a "this is ridiculous and I'll have no part (...)

  Re: It is time to ban JAL.
 
(...) <snip list, including me> OK. (...) OK. I was completely unaware that the term I habitually use was considered offensive. Now that I've been made aware, I'm voluntarily banning myself. James (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: It is time to ban JAL.
 
(...) No, there isn't. Both have exactly the same effect- obsceneties in a Lugnet post, violating the ToS. Like I said, I understand that (and understand why) Jessie is unpopular, but banning him from Lugnet for something that other people have done (...)

  Re: It is time to ban JAL.
 
(...) Just a note here - Frequently, mild obscenity is let slide by because whenever someone calls the abuser on it, it pretty much invariably turns into a huge fight. Slippery slope? Yup. Ethically lax of me (and others) to let it slide? You (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: It is time to ban JAL.
 
(...) Many people have violated this particular ToS and not been banned. In the past, folks who have posted obscenities (and been called on it, frequently they aren't) have simply been made to understand that NO posting of profanities is allowed, (...)

  Re: It is time to ban JAL.
 
(...) I don't think banning (forever) someone would be appropriate, for using a bad word in his post, not to insult someone, but just as an example, and also apologizing for this afterwards. If I remember correctly, the practice was warning and (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)
