I don’t post very often but I like coming here to see whats happening in the wider LEGO community.

I strongly admire Eric Sophie for his work, his building skills and his general attitude on LUGNET, as well as the inspiration he has provided me with over the few years I have been sharing my creations here. This is also true for many people who frequent DOTMecha.

I cannot understand why this unconstructive debate about the TOS has started, and more so, why it has been allowed to continue publicly?!?! If there has been a TOS violation it should be dealt with privately between the user and admin staff. Personally I think it does no harm, if one of the worlds leading LEGO builders is selling something and wants to let the mainstay of the Mecha building communtiy know about it.

I agree with everything you’ve said - up until this point. True, having his for-sale post in .mecha doesn’t do any harm, but rules are rules. Just because he happens to be “one of the world’s leading LEGO builders” (not everybody will agree on that) does NOT mean he is above and beyond the rules. In fact, as a prominent member of the mecha community, he should act accordingly and in-line as a role model to newer/younger builders.
