  Re: suspended Bricklink shops/
 
(...) Chris, if I'm so wrong, maybe you could tell me what you think. Scott A (20 years ago, 26-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: suspended Bricklink shops/
 
(...) Does "suggesting a change" really seem to you to be the same as "dictating?" Seriously? Maybe you think it's just a matter of spin, but your first (unfounded) claim is simply incorrect (based on all the evidence I have) and your most recent (...)

  Re: suspended Bricklink shops/
 
(...) I'm not clear on what the distinction is; was he not suggesting a change in the way BL operates rather than bring his listing within the ToS? Does that not imply that he wanted the ToS changed? Or do you mean he wanted the wording to remain (...) (20 years ago, 26-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: Un-spotlight? (was: suspended Bricklink shops)
 
(...) Which gets me thinking, why not also have a "un-spotlight" function? Not to remove a spot light I've previously set (which I can already do), but to subtract from the spotlights of others (subtract 100 or whatever from its points value). So if (...)

(...) Top news stories are member-selected. Paid LUGNET members can highlight or spotlight posts which causes them to be listed in the top stories. So, the post is at the top of the list because enough LUGNET members thought it was important for (...)

  Re: suspended Bricklink shops
 
Can somebody PLEASE tell me why this crap deserves to be a "Top News Story"?!?! Is it because it is Larry and he is "such a valued AFOL"? Give me a break. Keep issues as stupid as this one between whoever had a shop closed and the Bricklink admin. I (...)

  Re: suspended Bricklink shops
 
(...) I confirm that was the exact wording. Too terse? Yes. Refusing to abide by the ToS? No. Asking that it be altered? No. (20 years ago, 25-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: suspended Bricklink shops/
 
(...) To be fair, his response was "How about you implement bulk correctly instead? Seems a better solution to me." (according to Dan). That doesn't suggest that ToS be altered, rather that (as Lar saw it) a feature be (re-)implemented correctly. (...) (20 years ago, 25-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: suspended Bricklink shops/
 
(...) I'm not sure from your writing if you simply don't know what dictate means or if there is some less transparent explanation for your mischaracterization of the events that you accurately quoted. Maybe you can shed some light on this? Chris (20 years ago, 25-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Kyoto
 
(...) The "world against the USA" paranoia aside, your argument does have some merit. That said, your post brings two points to mind: Bush should have renegotiated the treaty instead of ripping it up. How do you think we should protect the (...)
