Create your own Castle World type community.

Just leave, right, then? Go make a new board.
Let this one rot in memorys of "good old days."

I don’t really care what you do.
But it just might be easier to create
your own if they won’t let you in.

!!!If you don’t like what McDonalds is serving, you
don’t talk to old’ Ronald, you jus’ go over to Burger King.

well, actually, they both stink,  so you make your own food.

And thus, “so make your own [website].”

Let them do their thing…stop makin’ demands from them.
Do your own thing…be creative…

Do their thing? Its suppost to be a community.

!A community created by them...
That gives them precedence, and control.


And no skills? No skills, eh? I suppose knowing how
Mythologies are made, how castles are built, how towns thrived,  how online
communitys work, how websites are made and maintained, how projects get off the
ground and keep going is no skills? If you arnt a has-been you dont have any skills, i
guess.

I wasn’t aware that this ‘open-letter’ to the community was addressed
specifically to you. It appears a bit neurotic to defend yourself in
regards to a generalized statement I made to the group.

Oh well, i guess im just not skilled in anything. *Siiigghhh.

Sure, if that’s what you think…
But from what you wrote you sound like a pretty talented guy.
Perhaps even talented enough to create your own castle community.

You have as much control over Castle World as you do
over Lugnet TM. Just because you really like and use the
medium doesn't entitle you to it’s direction. If Todd or Suz
choose to let Lugnet go…or KILL it completely they can do
so without recourse. Castle World doesn't have publicly
listed stocks, you are actually lucky these people readily
read and reply to what you write.

Its an arrowed COMMUNITY! We all are suppost to go under one person?

You can go under who ever you like.  ;-)

What makes hop-frog so great?

What difference does this make?
It doesn’t matter to me.
I'm talkin' about their creation!

Were all members, and were all inthusiests of lego.
This kind of behavior is total Orcgutz.

Yes, members of Lugnet.
And members of an AFOL Castle enthusiast Internet society,
but not really members of a defunct  castle web-site!?!

Essentially, whatever you say about dictatorship and
whatnot is true, if not irrelevant.
Don’t make demands of others and their creative works.
Make your own path, and ‘choose your own adventure.’

well, Sava is called a "dictator" and then you yourself say that Hop frog has
total dictatorialship over the CW project and everything!

I, myself, did not say "total dictatorship."
My above statement clearly states" "whatever you say about..."

If he doesnt want to update it in a century, well, we can just wait, right?

...Wait... do something... it doesn't matter!
That's your choice, and it's also his.

We dont have rights to make demands.

!!!Not on his time or creation!!!
But you can feel free to throw around as many demands
as you feel like if you believe it'll make things better.

We cant do anything.

You could start your own Castle World TM
instead of taking another’s pet-project?

Their lucky we even CARE about that crummy
old world they dont do anything with!

If it’s so “crummy” why do you want it?
Obviously it means something to you.
Why then do you demean it?

But its all squish because we have no power and Hop-Frog is dictator.
All hail Rich!!

Yup, you have no power over Hop-Frog.
But you have power over yourself…power to create something new.

In essence, Castle World is a ‘privately-created-website’
that aims to foster the development of the Lego Castle
community.

Why should we not have power of CW?

Perhaps because you didn’t create it and it does not belong to you.

What the heck kind of  community is this? You contridict yourself.
So, we should fall in line or make our own community,
but we have to fall in line- augh!


I did not say: “fall in line.”
I'm simply talkin’ about the rights of an individual
or individuals to their time and creative works.
It’s a matter of personal choice about what one does with their creations.
If Pawel chooses to be lethargic and differs responsibility to Hop-Frog
then it’s their choice. They didn’t choose you… so the choice is not in you
hands.

Your incomprehensible.

Perhaps you miss understood then.
Hope it’s better now!
