|
|
G'day, I just got an e-mail from Mark Harrison, in which he informed me that he is unable to post anywhere in lugnet [including the Australian section], and I was wondering 1) What was the reason(s) [if any] behind this blanket ban on his posting 2) (...)

(...) As far as I'm aware, he is still able to post to lugnet.market.* and lugnet.admin.* groups. (...)

(...) I'm pretty surprised you even wrote this, to be honest. Mark's proven to you and others he doesn't feel he has to follow the rules, even if he's warned that not following them will get him kicked out of here. That someone else would be silly (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) It's difficult to vouch for someone who lives 1000km away (lots of miles!) Surely a stiffer penalty would have been to ban him from everywhere except loc.au or even just Brisbane. (...) This is the key issue here. Not what Mark will/will not (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.admin.general)

(...) I would also like to see offers to buy, sell, trade or auction Lego within Australia okayed for .loc.au -- Pete C makes the point well.

(...) I don't think you can do that, as it is unfair to future generations of Aussie users who aren't here yet(1). But - can't you create org.au.* and move all your discussion there? I *think* organisations have more authority over the type of (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.admin.general)
