  Re: Survey, new LEGO story. Check it out.
 
Matt - I do not believe this post belongs in lugnet.announce, for the same reason MOC posts were singled out and given a separate group.

  Re: Are you looking for a 1592 Town Square - Castle Scene in MIB condition?
 
You did the right thing IMHO. How would a beginner know if he´s posting to the right place otherwise? Anyone can make a misteak[1], but they need to now about it, so they can avoid it.

(...) Or 2b. Poster receives 10--20 e-mail messages telling him that he's wrong (many probably more caustic than would have been posted in public) because no one is sure that someone has corrected him. 3b.

(...) Some of my thoughts: - I'm glad to see some acknowledgement that the "policing" needs to be done by more than just one or two (or three or four) admins. - With multiple people posting reminders, an advantage of posting over e-mail is less (...)

Well if you think that support for vigilantes is what we need I shall watch with interest. However, I for one do not feel that the bickering which results is helpful to LUGNET. Do you? "Dan Boger" <dan@peeron.com> wrote in message (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

(...) Thanks Dan! I'm sure I speak for a lot of us when I say I want you to have time to code... your rate of feature-add on peeron just whets our appetite. (...) Better than it was before you spoke up but not a certainty. :-) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general)

  LUGNET Awards? (was: My top 10)
 
Do you have any idea what you've just prompted? Of course this may have already come up a long, long time ago, but I may as well state it, had it not been stated before. What am I talking about?
