  Re: On Hiatus
 
(...) I think it is a case of why he is leaving that got it highlighted not so much that he is leaving. Tim was a great advocate for LUGNET and it is very disturbing that he feels he has to walk away for a while. (...) It does to some of us who have (...)

  Re: On Hiatus

  RE: On Hiatus
 
(...) IMO, the problem is that people seem to think the noise is more important than the content. To me, the content on LUGNET is the MOCs and the related building discussion. Noise is people bickering about why they can't get along...which leads to (...) (22 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.people, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: On Hiatus
 
(...) Definitely. What is happening to Lugnet anyway? (...) Hmm...The community should really think about this. What exactly Is Lugnet and why was it instated? I'll tell you. Lugnet is the medium for Lego fans like you and me to discuss matters (...) (22 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.people, lugnet.general)

Tim wasn't "just another user"... he had passion not only for making the Lego Community a better place, but also LUGNET. Its your attitude and others (...)

  Re: On Hiatus

You'd be amazed what some people do before thinking, and some (...) (22 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.people, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: On Hiatus

Geezzzzzzz… Where do I begin? You so completely misconstrued my point that I dumbfounded at the amount of reiteration I'll have to clarify… (...) First-off its ‘Spydèr’ not Spider… o.k.

  Re: On Hiatus
