But not easily. They have to go toggle settings every time they want to post
in a different mode than they last posted. And they can't even easily
*discuss* it in admin.nntp because you blocked access to it unless they jump
through hoops to do it.

I was wrong, I guess it wasn't an oversight on your part to do that. My
apologies for assuming it was a slipup rather than a deliberate action.

I'm baffled by this whole thing. I'm baffled by your choices of what
questions to answer and which ones to ignore, too. I'll ask again, more
pointedly.

What brought this on? Why this precipitious action with no discussion?

Well, the upside is that we can more easily bash TLC for not responding to
us, I guess. (Were I a TLC employee who had to go through hoops to toggle
post settings, I'd leave my settings on my company supplied laptop set at
"AFOL" and never officially answer anything...)
