  Re: When to speak one's mind?
 
(...) I just wanted to see if I could get you to post outside of your org.ca.rtltoronto ivory tower, you nutty liberal Canadian West Wing fan. I haven't seen you outside of that group for weeks; if you're not careful, you're going to go native. (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  I did not call Lenny a racist was Re: When to speak one's mind?
 
(...) Dear all, I would like to add to the record that I did not, and nor would I, call Lenny a racist. I don't believe that Lenny is a racist. If he is referring to someone else calling him a racist then you can ignore this. Tim (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: When to speak one's mind?
 
(...) Well, you're a curator, so when your posts are viewed with that in mind. Granted, curatorship doesn't impart any magical powers, but it makes you seem more "official" than those of us who aren't curators, for what that's worth. I wouldn't (...)

  Re: overreaction was Re: More random flaming
 
Lenny, I assume that by changing the title you see my post as random flaming. It is not at all random and nor is it flaming. You have irritated me with your holier-than-thou attitude and I have merely pointed out some of your character flaws. (...) (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshelf-- opinions?
 
(...) Non-adults participate in JLUG and are perfectly welcome to do so. And just to be clear, immature people are also welcome. Just because we say "..intended for a mature audience" does not mean others are not welcome to participate, if they find (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  When to speak one's mind?
 
Just an open question to Lugnet. In the recent thread about Richie Dulin's Nazi Spiffcraft, I felt the need to speak my mind about the subject matter Richie posted. I made, what I felt, was an honest and accurate critique. That critique prompted a (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshelf-- opinions?
 
(...) I doubt you've made Richie cry but you've certainly made me irked. Stop acting as though you are somehow superior. You've been picking fights just as much as he has. (...) If you are one of these people, you have a valid right to make a (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshelf-- opinions?
 
(...) What does "mature" equate to? Typically the adjectives 'mature' and 'adult' mean the same thing (Mature Language/Adult Language, etc). Or are you suggesting that non-adults can participate in JLUG? Funny thing that you would specifically (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshellf-- opinions?
 
I understand your point Dave. I think that its up to the parents to make sure that Brickshelf isn't the first place their kids learn about guns especially if there are guns in the child’s home. At have a .357 Magnum in my closet (locked in a gun (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshellf-- opinions?
 
(...) I think Allister was posting a satirical critique of Lenny's post(s) suggesting that JLug was the place to discuss stuff that he didn't think belonged on Lugnet. As I suspect you have just discovered, sometimes satire on the internet can be (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshellf-- opinions?
 
Allister, It’s not really conducive to debate when one person raises issues and asks questions, but the other responds by suggesting three times in the same message that he go away. I’ll probably stick around to see if Ondrew ever meant his post as (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
 
  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshellf-- opinions?
 
(...) I agree, Joe. The effect would/will probably be minimal, if at all. Having seen how kids react to the replica I made, I would definitely not encourage them to be exposed to it given the reactions I've seen. I don't think most children have (...)

  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshellf-- opinions?
 
Hey James, I believe OnDrew's concern, as stated in his post, was specifically with full-scale and very accurate replicas of real pistols and/or assault rifles, not historical vehicles. I'd be willing to be that the odds of a child finding a German (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  One important addendum . . .
 
I thought I should say that I don't advocate censoring anyone's MOC submissions. However, I think we may need to consider that a significant number of contributors to Brickshelf are adults who create works that some would say should only be viewed (...)

  Re: Life size guns and assault rifles on Brickshelf-- opinions?
 
(...) I would just like to point out to all that seem to have formed an incorrect opinion about what JLUG is: JLUG is NOT an adult forum. From the user agreement, JLUG "..is for discussing any facet of creating with bricks but is intended for a (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
