Sorry, but I don't.

Forget about the JJ icon and look
at his "document" about "My views about the self entitled "Lego

You respected a community and want to become part of it, so what?

He's simply stating some things he doesn't like about the Lego community as he

Once again, what it comes down to is this:  Over on *his* site, which you are

That doesn't mean (IMHO) that he should be excluded from Lugnet.

He's apologised profusely for his recent behaviour, and says that he
understands that rudeness is not welcome here.  If he comes here to Lugnet and
posts more tirades, or uses profanity, *then* I'll agree that he should be

If, on the other hand, he comes here and strongly (but civilly) says that he
sees no problem with gluing/painting LEGO, or that he doesn't think LDraw is
all everyone makes it out to be, or that he enjoys simplicity of designs...  I
will support his right to say any of those things.  The fact that you disagree
with what he says doesn't mean he should be excluded.
