(...) I'm comfortable with *suggesting* that you switch. I don't see "should consider" as a sweeping statment that is dictating anything to you or not. You know what? I participate in a LOT of communities that *only* offer a web interface. People (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jun-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp, lugnet.general)

(...) Normally I use the web interface (for over a year now), but I have the NNTP still set up in Navigator, so I gave it a test shot. 1) Open 'lugnet.com' in NS/Messenger window 2) Try to add 'lugnet.off-topic.test', then realize that I already had (...)

(...) Yeh, that's a problem with Germanic languages other than English--zullen/sollen/etc are modals that correspond to "should" yet "should" also has the meaning of kunnen/koennen/etc. But to make matters even cloudier, you *can* use "should" in (...)
