I completely agree with John’s last point - I’d hit the ‘recent updates’
link on Brickshelf a couple times a day.

And it appears that the mass migration is on! If you go to maj.com, its
recent pages are filled with LEGO MOCs...

Am I the only one that’s a bit nervous about about a mass migration to maj.com?
If a mass migration happens, the maj.com bandwidth shoots through the roof and
Kevin is once again facing overwhelming bandwidth costs. If this happens, does
he shut down that site too, thus leaving everyone in the same spot they’re in
now? Generally, we don’t know if the issue is that Kevin is done hosting
anything or only done hosting brickshelf.com.
Without any communication from Kevin on this matter, I’d be hesitant to rush to
migrate to maj.com. But perhaps that’s just me.
