  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) I've read your post a couple of times, and I am frankly baffled. Why does this annoy you so much? It's a couple of lines at the end of a post that are incredibly easy to ignore. (...) Some people post to more places than LUGNET. They may not (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)

  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) Well, I use the web interface so currently (unless I get off my duff and find a macro solution) my sig is whatever I feel like typing by hand. But when I was posting via Netscape news, my sig was what I had configured it to be. Since I posted (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) While I don't include my position in posts from work, I do make it clear when I am posting from work. This is because I have my Netscape at work set up with my home e-mail identity, but I don't want to hide the fact that the post is (...)

  Re: Building the A10 Thunderbolt "Warthog"
 
I'd build an A-10 out of light grey and use dark grey and black for the details. For a canopy I figure there is no perfect way to do one so I'd us the naboo fighter canopy and then make the back part of it slope into the fuselage, kinda like they (...)

(...) if you've got a proper newsreader, you ought to be able to turn off the display of signatures, assuming people use the proper dash dash space ("-- ") delimiter. that should prevent your being annoyed. (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)
 
  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) Points well taken Richard. There are several ways of looking at my comments. Here is a recent direct email I received from this post and my reply to this poor Canadian: ##### Dave Hylands wrote (me directly): Hi, Marc Cook wrote: > What I (...)

  RE: This will get someone upset...
 
Hi, (...) And some people, like me, just configure their email program to automatically include the signature. I read lugnet using email, not using news. I don't consider it "bragging", I just consider it professional when dealing with others. I (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: This will get someone upset...
 
(...) I don't disagree with you, but at the same time I think that people should be allowed to have whatever signature they want. I see it as a form of freedom of expression. I wouldn't want to stop people from posting with their chosen signatures (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)
 
  This will get someone upset...
 
I've noticed a few people like posting their signature files on Lugnet or a "signature" like saluation. I think degree posting a quote, or a link to your lego pages is fine. What I really see as bragging and I feel is really annoying is posting your (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.admin.terms, lugnet.faq)
