  brickshelf recent gallery
 
Hello I've just created a brickshelf account and have loaded pictures. Everything has worked fine so far. However, my stuff does not appear in the recent gallery. Does it take a certain amount of time to appear or is there something specific I have (...) (20 years ago, 11-Aug-04, to lugnet.faq)
 
  PayPal finally has to ante-up (long read)
 
For those of you who have been PayPal members (between Oct 99 and Jan 04), this applies to you - but you should have received this already. It does not appear to be a hoax as links are on the PayPal site. I believe this realates to the many stories (...) (20 years ago, 29-Jul-04, to lugnet.faq)

  Re: New group for LUG?
 
(...) You can't. There are no moderation or administration rights at the newsgroup level that are assigned. However, if what you mean is how do you become a curator(1) (2) then the answer is: read the newsgroup lugnet.admin.curators, especially the (...)

  Changing Email Address for Posting
 
I have a new email address, as the old one will expire soon. I filled in the posting application form for the new address but haven't had a response. Perhaps it was thought that someone of the same name but a different email address would confuse (...) (21 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: Whats better?
 
(...) Well you can create your own pages here on Lugnet (eg (URL) ), you can add a list of sets you own (URL) , create a profile page (URL) , and .. well .. probably a few other things that I forgot. Oh and you can become a group curator too. ROSCO (21 years ago, 15-Jan-04, to lugnet.faq)

  Re: RTL query
 
(...) Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I suspect RTL is more of a "wasteland" now than it ever was, at least in my view, based on my (and I suspect a lot of other people's views as well).

  Re: RTL query
 
(...) I'm not sure that's quite fair. You're arguing a subtlety that's actually incorrect, unless your definition of "quality" is so vastly different that it hardly is worth calling it "quality" in public discussion. Unless one considers that only (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: Message awaiting authentication
 
I don't want to use the web client. It's clunky. With NNTP, I can read posts offline, choose my NNTP client (thus finding a UI that is right for me), etc. Thanks for the info though. Now I know that throwing $10 at lugnet won't fix the problem. I (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.admin.nntp)

  Re: How to Signature?
 
(...) It is my belief that there is not currently a way from the web interface to automatically include a signature.
