Absolute BULL.  They are being punished, as you dropped the rules into place without
a SOLUTION to help meet those rules.  You just counted on external forces to handle
it.

Step 1 - Plan a rule
Step 2 - Be nice and plan a solution to the rule if said rule is restrictive
Step 3 - Let people know about the rule, point to the solution
Step 4 - Institute the rule

YOU FORGOT STEP 2 and part of Step 3 - NEXT time, I hope you are more careful of the
sequence/timing of Step 1-4.

(...) I'm with you on that. My only regret on this is not having made things clear to Brad and his people ahead of time. I have sent an apology and I hope there are no hurt feelings. --Todd (26 years ago, 19-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

(...) You certainly don't know that the vast majority feel that way. You know that about 10 to 12 highly vocal people are complaining and about 4 or 5 generally quieter people are agreeing. (...) Now as in the moment -- not now as in going forward. (...) (26 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp, lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)
