  Re: Murfle?
 
(...) It's as the others in this thread said. The "murfling" was done in the past. It's not something being done on posts right now. If it were to be adopted, I'm sure users would be notified. I don't know why they were not before the act was (...) (18 years ago, 1-Apr-06, to lugnet.admin.terms)
 
  Re: Murfle?
 
(...) Many parts snipped out, just to shorten things up. You made some great points and reminded my why I continue to return to Lugnet, and thank you for taking the time to respond so throughly.

  Re: IRON MECHA - The Qwelder Mech - FOR SALE
 
(...) I really can't see why this is so difficult to understand, Eric. No-one had a problem with it when you first released it because it came under 'fair use' and you weren't trying to make money out of it. It wasn't a coincidence that concerns (...)

(...) Yes. What do you propose is done about it? Let it go? Again? How many times should it be let go before he is held accountable? (...) 'Gang of trolls'? I speak for no-one but myself. Look, Eric is the problem here, Lar. There's been plenty of (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.admin.terms) ! 
 
  Re: Murfle?
 
For the record: There is no point in being concerned that something new is being imposed. That post was first murfled a long time ago. I know that to be the case, because I did it. It may have been unmurfled/murfled a few times since, or not, I have (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.admin.terms) !

  Re: Murfle?
 
(...) The way Lugnet is built, any changes like murlfing or editting of one's post and including FTX format, won't work in NNTP. Back when I'd chat with Todd often, I'd give him ideas on improvements to Lugnet's software, and many of those ideas (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.terms)
 
  Re: Murfle?
 
(...) The murfle concept was originally thought up way back when we had an Admin team. I forget who had the idea, but Todd named it (it has that sort of Todd flare to it). The concept was exactly as Tim described it - a compromise between (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.admin.terms)
 
  Re: Murfle?
 
(...) ...snip... (...) ...snip... (...) I might be speaking out of turn, but it's my understanding that for testing purposes, some of the posts that were very clearly out of bounds of the ToS were murfled during the development of this function.

  Re: Murfle?
 
(...) It seems to me the message remains the same on the NNTP server, and more importantly the search index, so searching for any word in the original post will retrieve it. In fact, searching for one of the known "questionable" words in the post (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.terms)
 
  Re: IRON MECHA - The Qwelder Mech - FOR SALE
 
(...) I listen to Larry. I offer this: Please excuse my perceived auction spam. Respect my follow up and my intentions not to get carried away. Rather understand I feel must reach a core audience that may not have known about it otherwise. As for (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.admin.terms)
 
  Re: Murfle?
 
(...) Tim, I agree, to a point, I don't really care if LUGNET decides that "murflement" is THEIR answer. I don't know Suz or Todd, to any great degree aside from having the pleasure of meeting them both, but I feel I have conversed with Todd enough (...)

  Re: Murfle?
 
It's also curious that a search for "murfl" turns up nothing. Still, I think it's a good idea to rein in some of the meanness... (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.terms)
 
  Re: IRON MECHA - The Qwelder Mech - FOR SALE
 
(...) Hi Lar, My problem here is that Eric is entirely unrepentant of his own bad behaviour. He needs to be made to see that what he did was wrong. Many people have tried the polite approach to him on this and other topics, others (myself included (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.admin.terms)  
 
  Re: IRON MECHA - The Qwelder Mech - FOR SALE
 
(...) Yep. To summarise, Eric's in the wrong regarding posting auctionspam, and regarding using material of others without permission, and you and your gang of trolls are using that as an excuse to be disruptive, make fun of him, and egg him on (...)

  Re: Murfle?
 
(...) I think it's a good compromise solution. It is still possible to see the original message but it requires action rather than accident. People are not meant to swear on Lugnet and if they don't pull their message then I think this is a fair (...) (18 years ago, 30-Mar-06, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.terms)

  Murfle?
 
Curious, I just happened to have this brought to my attention, (URL) and forgive me if this has been announced or discussed, but is this a new "feature" of Lugnet, and will we be seeing more of this in the future?
