  Cool LUGNET MOC of the Week (was: lugnet.announce is not for MOCs)
 
(...) An addendum to this idea of mine (I can't shake it...it's a good idea, so it's rattling around in my head...): If there were a lugnet.build.announce, everyone with a new MOC of any genré would post their MOC announcement there and in their (...)

  Re: Bulk Lego Auctions
 
(...) You asked how one is supposed to determine things. I answered. No critcism of your first post to .announce was intended, I've said (twice or three times now) that it fits the charter as it's written. I think the charter needs changing but (...)

  Re: Bulk Lego Auctions
 
(...) Is it true that there's no easy way? When I was viewing lugnet via NNTP I had my newsreader set to never discard posts (that was a long time ago, it took a lot less space than it would now) so I could go look at post #1 in a group without too (...)

  Re: lugnet.announce is not for MOCs
 
(...) A thought I have is to have a lugnet._.announce for each theme and probably some of the other areas also where folks could announce new MOCs or other newsworthy items related to that theme. It would then provide an easy place to go find just (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

  Re: Bulk Lego Auctions
 
(...) My apologies for making any assumptions. I wondered if the mail had perhaps bounced at the other end without generating an error at my end. (...) As mentioned (twice or three times now) I did, most certainly, read the charter for that group. I (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: lugnet.announce is not for MOCs
 
(...) Well, lugnet.build can be rather high volume at times, and announcements can get lost in the noise. It's nice to have a place where MOCs can be announced with followups directed elsewhere. I'd like to see it under lugnet.announce.{moc,build} (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I don't know what the ratios are as to who uses the web vs. nntp interfaces, but for people using nntp there is no easy way to access the charter of a newsgroup. --Bill. (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: Shop At Home catalog Engine Shed
 
(...) If you're adding comments to the message as you add the other newsgroup(s), then I think it's reasonable. But to just crosspost it for the sake of spreading the word is in violation of the spirit of the lugnet.lego.* restriction. Whether you (...) (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)
 
  Re: lugnet.announce is not for MOCs
 
(...) Not that my opinion counts for anything (since I haven't found the time to build a darn thing lately), but if I may, I would like to chime in with my support for the idea of lugnet.build.announce for strictly LUGNET-wide MOC announcements, for (...)
