I certainly do not condone how this was done, nor do I want to encourage it, but at the moment there are lots of fibblesnork links on pages and sites across the internet (both forgotten and not) that now (...)

If this were LUGNET itself, to which I have paid a membership fee and am (...) (23 years ago, 27-Aug-01, to lugnet.general)

One that sought a resolution to the problem, and was in no way a perfect solution... and in many (...) (23 years ago, 28-Aug-01, to lugnet.general)

And now that the backgrounds reside at a new home (URL) isn't much point in resurrecting anything at the old (...) (23 years ago, 28-Aug-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.publish)

I would not for a moment consider paying $550 for someone else's domain name, but at approximately .50 per member to save the headaches and "oust the squatter" didn't seem like a (...)

| | | | | (...) That Is a great Idea but I do have to agree with Larry. $550 for a domain name? I also think that is alittle too much, dont you? $0.50 cents is really nothing and will indeed add up if everyone from LUGNET donates, but if Todd let it go for (...)

| | | | | | Plus, it does not say this is for sale for $550 - - it says any bids UNDER $550 will be ignored. So do not assume it is for sale for $550. How did this happen anyway? Did Todd just forget to pay to renew?? And if he DOES own the TM on it (and paid (...) (23 years ago, 28-Aug-01, to lugnet.general)
