That's nice. > The previous lojban web site had a link to Loglan. For reasons that > elude me, you changed this to conform to your own point-of-view. What are you *talking* about? Here is an exact mirror of the old site: http://www.digitalkingdom.org/www.lojban.org.old/ Please show me where there are links to loglan. > I consider the omission of links to Loglan to be a violation of > netiquette. Links are not tags. There's a link to the Loglan site at http://www.lojban.org/publications/misc.html, albeit the old site (my bad). > I don't appreciate that either. Now you call me rude, apparently > oblivious to your own posts. What does my calling you rude have to do with my posts bitching about you calling me rude? You annoyed me, I am thus less inclined to be polite to you. I don't see a contradiction. > I like most of what you have done with the website, but I don't like > your imposing your own anti-TLI Loglan point of view on the site. I have not intended to impose an anti-Loglan POV, nor, in fact, do I have such a point of view. We disagree about meta tags. Deal with it. If you would like to give me a list of places where you think *links* to the Loglan site would be appropriate, do so and I'll consider it. -Robin -- http://www.digitalkingdom.org/~rlpowell/ *** I'm a *male* Robin. .i le pamoi velru'e zo'u jmaji le plibu taxfu .i le remoi velru'e zo'u mo .i le cimoi velru'e zo'u ba'e prali .uisai http://www.lojban.org/ *** to sa'a cu'u lei pibyta'u cridrnoma toi
