The Confederation of Planets webpage has had some problems. Cross links to old layouts and the current layout have forced me to shut the entire site down and revamp the entire thing. Thanks to the support of J. Irvine and his site layout, he ahs (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.publish)

Part of the Fibblesnork(tm) site content (the set guide, the ratings, the info on auctions, the legal info, etc.) was moved to LUGNET(tm) a while back... I, and many others I am sure, use the Fibblesnork background images, in large part because (...) (24 years ago, 3-Aug-01, to lugnet.publish)

I use Xeran (www.xeran.com) for mine. From what I can tell, it seems to kick Pair's butt around the block when it comes to features/price. There's no bandwidth cap and it sounds like they could handle a couple of slashdots a day without breaking a (...) (24 years ago, 2-Aug-01, to lugnet.publish)

Can anyone suggest a good, reliable web host, please? My site does about 1 GB of "business" per month, which is about 4 times the traffic I'm allowed by Texas.net. So, I'm tired of watching the web monitor and ordering extra capacity. I guess having (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-01, to lugnet.publish)
