(...) Exactly. However it's sliced, I think there is a need for places to flog, and a need for places to talk about various stores, technologies, theories, etc. .brickshops, to me, is like .theory, .services, and .shipping, a place to talk about (...)

(...) What about: .brickshops.admin .brickshops.theory .brickshops.ads Is this getting too compartmentally dorky? And should .brickshops.theory really be part of .market.theory? Just throwing out ideas.... ROSCO (23 years ago, 20-Apr-02, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) Yes to the too compartmentally dorky. Once upon a time all auction stuff went to auctions and all other LEGO commerce went to buy-sell-trade. Now bricklink has outgrown its boots and needs its own commerce group. Something like brickshops.ads (...) (23 years ago, 21-Apr-02, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) Except that ads should not be rooted in the same hierarchy as discussion. This raises the same (problem? mistake?) that occurred with announce and announce.moc... web viewing market.brickshops will also show the contents of brickshops.ads My (...)

If the new groups are further down in the hierarchy than the one you want to read, the subsequent messages will appear. Move ads (...) (23 years ago, 22-Apr-02, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) I fail to see the problem with .announce.moc - the MOC's are a subset of announcements. There is no discussion in .announce. I agree that they should be separate, but I don't think that's a good analogy. (...) I disagree with the idea of (...) (23 years ago, 22-Apr-02, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) .announce.moc was CREATED to keep traffic out of .announce. It basically (due to the technology) fails to do that for web users. Point your browser at .announce and you see announce.moc traffic as well. Simple as that... it fails to keep (...) (23 years ago, 23-Apr-02, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)
