|
| | | | | | (...) Thanks. It has been announced on the LDraw.org home page. Does it really need to be in the Forum too? It's not really a topic for discussion. Or do we want to move all announcements from the LDraw.org home page to the Forum (now this is a (...) (13 years ago, 26-Jul-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

| | | | | | --snip-- (...) Given that we are transitioning over (eg. the website now points to the new forums) rather than duplicating I'd say that the dedicted forum is the right place and a comment at LUGNET should be considered secondary. Tim (13 years ago, 27-Jul-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) My question (which was snipped) wasn't about LUGNET vs. the new LDraw forum. "It has been announced on the LDraw.org home page. Does it really need to be in the (LDraw discussion) Forum too?" Are you suggesting that we stop making (...) (13 years ago, 27-Jul-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

| | | | | | | | Re: LDraw.org 2011-01 Parts Update Now Available —Timothy Gould
|
| | | | | | (...) Ahhh, sorry, I misunderstood. I think the LDraw website should definitely be the main place to make the main announcement. But if you're going to announce it in a forum as well I'd say the LDraw forum would be the best place. We've already got (...) (13 years ago, 27-Jul-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

|
| | | | | | First, thanks for all the work to get this update out to us! Please continue to announce it on LUGNET. I don't get to the LDRAW website / forums at all, and want to remain apprised of new parts. Is there a possibility of an automated email update (...) (13 years ago, 27-Jul-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

|
| | | | | | (...) If you're interested in LDraw you should get to the forums. The aim is to shift as much conversation there as possible. It is the 'official' place for discussion. Tim (13 years ago, 27-Jul-11, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

| | | | | | | I have a question about this latest parts update. Many of the new parts have file names longer than 8 characters, and none of them will load into MLCad. They just throw up "file not found" errors. (This is MLCad 3.30.) Is there something I need to (...) (13 years ago, 6-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | | | (...) NNTP is simply a more efficient protocol than HTTP for forums. I can't see the point in wasting time on web interfaces to forums, when NNTP is so much more efficient - and allows me to pick a user interface I like. Play well, Jacob (13 years ago, 6-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

Yes, why stay with obsolete methods that are 300-3000% more efficient for reading text messages, why stay with 'one click reads everything' when we can use the much more modern 'upmty-eleven clicks may find everything but you will probably (...)

| | | | | | | (...) Personally I have no problem with NNTP and would happily stick with it. Unfortunately most of the internet will not. So our choices (as I see them) are as follows: 1) Stick with LUGNET with NNTP but suffer a lack of new users who either can't (...) (13 years ago, 6-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | | (...) Here's the deal: When I created the new forum and announced the change, I knew there would be some people who didn't like it. Change is hard, I acknowledge that. But we were driving away new blood for the sake of the old hats. Yes I like NNTP (...) (13 years ago, 7-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

| | | | | | (...) Yeah, sorry, I'm already registered at the new forum. My reaction was mainly against Tim's tone - as if 'modern' is the only working way. For some reason he raises my hackles quite often... I'm well used to web forums, but I still prefer NNTP (...) (13 years ago, 7-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)
