Sorry, but there's no conceivable way LUGNET is easier to post to than flickr.
I think you've just been here too long ;)

Yeah, you're probably right. :)

I don't even notice that I enter "to" here in the Name and E-mail fields (the
rest of my name and e-mail is auto-filled by IE) and check that "I have
carefully read... blah, blah" checkbox; that has become a conditional reflex
over all these years.

The bottom line is that LUGNET needs to change how it handles users.  At a
minimum the authentication emails have got to go.  I'm a member and I use the
web interface so I can just log in and skip most of the annoying things (e.g.
entering email, "Terms of posting" checkbox, authentication email, etc...) but
for those who came after LUGNET stopped adding members, this is a huge pain.

I do, however, like the confirmation screen since I can fix spelling/grammar
errors that I missed the first time or add something that I forgot to include.
I also like the fact the LUGNET forces you to use you real name, no hiding
behind your anonymity here.
