Additionally, it cannot be
overlooked that in his role here on LUGNET Lar has gone to admirable lengths
to enforce the TOS as it applies to proper posting venues and subject matter
of posts, and on many occasions he posts mid-thread to call for an FUT.
Therefore it is far more poignant when he chooses to subvert the spirit of
Bricklink's TOS.



I think that the point Suz was trying to make is that often Lar is right.  When
Lar sees a problem, he doesn't stay quiet and live with it.  He tried to fix the
problem.  In this case, he used something like civil disobedience to make a
point.

Is that not rather ironic given his willingness to enforce the ToS on this site?

No, not really.  Its possible that he believes that the TOS of Lugnet is fair
and has no room for improvement at the moment, but that BL has an issue to deal
with that might involve changing the TOS.



It's not because it is "The Great Lar++", it is because Larry is consistently
acting in the best interest of the community.

hmm.

Hmm    ?
