(...) --snip-- Sorry about raising your hackles. This one was meant to be a jokey tone but rereading it I see it's not so much. Particularly since I tend to take a strong tone in my arguments in general. Tim (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)

(...) 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)

(...) I do share your frustration, but if the new, slower and much more inefficient way to navigate through the forum threads really will attract new users, I will not stand in its way. I'll give it some time and hope for improvements that will (...) (13 years ago, 7-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

(...) 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)

(...) 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 (...) (13 years ago, 6-Aug-11, to lugnet.cad)

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)
