But when I was posting via Netscape news, my sig was what I had configured it to be. Since I posted (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) While I don't include my position in posts from work, I do make it clear when I am posting from work. This is because I have my Netscape at work set up with my home e-mail identity, but I don't want to hide the fact that the post is (...)

  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) Points well taken Richard. There are several ways of looking at my comments. Here is a recent direct email I received from this post and my reply to this poor Canadian: ##### Dave Hylands wrote (me directly): Hi, Marc Cook wrote: > What I (...)

  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) I don't disagree with you, but at the same time I think that people should be allowed to have whatever signature they want. I see it as a form of freedom of expression. I wouldn't want to stop people from posting with their chosen signatures (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)
 
  This will get someone upset...
 
I've noticed a few people like posting their signature files on Lugnet or a "signature" like saluation. I think degree posting a quote, or a link to your lego pages is fine. What I really see as bragging and I feel is really annoying is posting your (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)

  Re: Why do my posting privileges come un-stuck?
 
(...) Me too and I wish I knew why. I think it's just bugginess in Netscape cookie handling. Or the cookie monster. It seems to happen to me to Lugnet more often than elsewhere (like on Yahoo finance) but I'm *on* Lugnet more. Just as Shiri did, I (...)

  Why do my posting privileges come un-stuck?
 
I have this ongoing problem with Lugnet's web interface. Despite being signed in to Lugnet, at work (uhoh) I always have to enter my name and stuff before each post. At home, occasionally I get to go through the Setup procedure again before posting. (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.faq)
