(...) Whoa boy, backup. We not voting in a world leader to determine the lives of millions, we're voting on LSC membership. Since most people balk at even giving out their real name and Email address, I think this is a little extreme. -Orion (22 years ago, 25-Apr-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)

(...) Good point, Orion! Now we get to the meat. Sending in a paper ID photocopy and utility bill gives a high degree of certainty of a real person behind the ID but is pretty intrusive.

(...) That's not a bad idea, but it leads to the point that someone (or someones) will have to accept the dues, track the moneys, pay the bill(s). So we'll need a treasurer right away. LDraw.org is an international thing, so there could be fees for (...) (22 years ago, 1-May-03, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
