I came on the LEGO scene too late to "enjoy" (sic) the subject
contributor's "contributions" (sic) to RTL.
My question is this, to people that remember his posts, were they, in and of
themselves, sufficient to get him ToSsed from Lugnet, were he to show up here?
If so, how far would he have went before being ToSsable?
I'm just curious, really.

From the overall terms
Point 4 says that readers may find offensive things on LUGNET, which is their
problem to filter or monitor out.
Point 5 says LUGNET itself is to be held harmless from things such as user

These are good.
From the discussion group terms
Point 5 rules out "abusive" and "defamatory" posts. That seems pretty clear
cut to me.
The net here is that we can't be upset by individual offensive or abusive
posts by others, it's not Lugnet's fault and Lugnet can't be sued over it, but
the poster who posts such things can be banished. But when? How much is too
much?
Mostly I'm posting this as a way of working through this myself...

(points 12 and 13 are actually ToSsable offenses! Whoa. Knew that academically

I'll crosspost this to lugnet.castle too... Oops. er, ah never mind. :-) )

| (...) M*ndroid was probably a much clearer case. Matthew Moulton's case is a lot fuzzier, I think. Maybe tomorrow he wakes up and realizes he was having a bad day, and grows up, and apologizes, and stops posting off-topic in .space. Or maybe not. I (...)
