(...) No fighting, I haven’t even donned my flame-suit! :) I believe that I put it quite eloquently, talking about “creative anagram” usage, and “relevant content.” (...) Hey, I too agree with Tim, but I just wanted to provide context to the (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.general)

The problem with the kind if spam I get is that it mostly comes from one-man -shows selling me utter crap, get-rich-quick-schemes, or loans: "$80 Crystal Bear Now $4.95" "Our Loan Packages Have Never Been More Attractive!" "Full or Part Time (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: My top 10
 
Since listing one's personal favorites seems to elicit great anger, I thought I would make my own top ten list of my favorite Lego colors. 1. Green (because I like it) 2. Red (because I like it less than green) 3. Blue (because I like water) 4. (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate) !

Kirby, Relax. Of course you are right. I made an ass out of myself and got what I deserved. Friends? (At least until the next time I step in mecha poo poo...) Later, Bryce (23 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Hi Borislav - First off, I'm quoting your message with one of the latter paragraphs first: (...) I would suggest if you want to make your point and have it be well accepted by the person you are targeting it at, you try not to insult them or attack (...)

  Re: My top 10
 
(...) I did. You've explained your opinion well in the new post. (...) I never mentioned that it would prevent me from being able to express my ideas or opinions. I merely point out that my credibility isn't the same and therefore wouldn't hold as (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: My top 10
 
(...) I just made a new post where I snipped out the specific issues that I feel need to be addressed. Please take a look at it. (...) You are correct that you would not have the same status/recognition. But that would not prevent you from sharing (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: My top 10
 
(...) Where did Bryce once mention that posting MOCs is a requirement for participation? I've read his message numerous times now and I don't see where he mentions this at all. By this logic, I should be able to post in .train and have similar (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: America at Work, or When in Doubt -- Shred It!
 
(...) Assuming you meant "funding", well, politicians make lots of noises about that but invariably don't bite the hand they feed themselves with. It's pretty much legalized bribery as long as you jump through the right hoops. It's really up to the (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: America at Work, or When in Doubt -- Shred It!

(...) I think any pundit could have predicted this even by gazing into Willa the Witch's Lego crystal ball. :-) We are going to see a lot of politicians scurrying about like cockroaches once some light is shed on their part in this.

  Re: America at Work, or When in Doubt -- Shred It!
 
(...) I dunno, I am willing to believe that Bush, et al had their collective hands deep inside the cookie jar here -- but that is conjecture only. (...) Wait until we get social security reform, or dispense with it altogether, and then perhaps the (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: My top 10
 
(...) I honestly do not see what is wrong with posting a list of personal favorites to a group and thus sharing that list of favorites with others and inviting them to discuss their favorites as well.

  Re: My top 10
 
(...) We aren't upset at you for this, Jacob. We respect that you have such a list....I have one as well. I choose to post mine on my website rather than leave it out in the open (as you have done) for everyone to scrutinize. (...) I can't disagree (...)

  Re: What is a "review"?
 
(...) It's not relevent because he's not making the comment on other elements, he's making comment on the Jack Stone one. (...) That's right he can form and express opinions in writing. It's when he calls it a "review" that it worries me. (...) But (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: What is a "review"?
 
(...) Allan's familiartity with other lego sets and elements is absolutely relevant, how could it be otherwise? That fact is practically the soul of his reviews. As to his familiarity with Jack Stoned, I'll concede his methods might have been more (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
