(...) Definitely confusing. If it is for discussion of brickshops, I wonder why we need another group, or does that kind of discussion not really fit lugnet.market.theory. I would dearly love to see lugnet.market.brickshops be the place to announce (...) (23 years ago, 2-Sep-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I agree with Larry. Here's how the charter is worded: *** lugnet.market.brickshops (group): Discussions and informational postings related to personal online LEGO-related "shops" and third-party buyer/seller services (BrickBay, etc.) *** And (...)

G'day folks, If you use the web interface to browse through lugnet.space, this post: (URL) chronologically before the post it is in reply to. Now I know we're all used to temporal anomalies in .space, but this is a little too weird :] I have noticed (...) (23 years ago, 1-Sep-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Let me take back what I said, above. I re-read both charters carefully and I think unless there is a charter change, posting sales announcements or new shop openings may actually be off charter for market.brickshops. Not a LOT off charter, (...) (23 years ago, 1-Sep-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

BTW, here's an example of a superseded article: news://lugnet.com/<m...de.uio.no> (Normally, I would have superseded my original article to add this comment, but now that it doesn't work, I'll post a followup in stead...) Fredrik (23 years ago, 30-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Well then never mind, I'm all wet and I have no idea why it stopped working. Sounds like a bug rather than an intended policy change. (23 years ago, 30-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) No, that is not true. Superseding is technically mostly the same as canceling and reposting the article. The new article gets a new Message-ID and a new article number. It's not like editing an article at all. I've used Supersedes on LUGNET a (...) (23 years ago, 30-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

| | Re: Possible problem/bug

(...) Speculating: I suspect it was a policy change because the effect of Supersede on the historical record is that you changed a particular article at the very point in the thread where it previously was, which is in effect an edit. Mail (...) (23 years ago, 30-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I used to be able to use Supersedes to change my articles, but I haven't been able to do that anymore. I don't know if it is a policy change or a bug. Superseding is more or less the same as canceling an article and posting a new one, but it (...) (23 years ago, 30-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) This is an unfortunate side effect of the "no edit, only cancel" policy here... but this side effect is, I think, massively drowned out by the positive effects of not being able to revise your words in a way that makes replies inconsistent. (23 years ago, 30-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Actually, you're not supposed to post sales announcements in any group but .market.buy-sell-trade, per the TOS. While it's true, he didn't spell out "for sale," the post was soon after a sales announcement in b-s-t, so I think the intent was (...)

Hi, Yes that is my real name :-) I received your update request on the 24th of July, and updated your (and other's) links on the 31st. This was sent off to be changed on the Main site. I suspect that is slipped through the email cracks. I am (...) (23 years ago, 29-Aug-01, to lugnet.admin.general)

The LUGNET links page ((URL) still points to my old xoom.com/nbci.com site where the references to the fibblesnork domain remain. I e-mailed Linc Smith (is (...)
