Mr. Lenny, what's going on with the MOC highlight? While the current MOC the
"Fugli" is without a doubt excellent and deserving of the spotlight, since the
builder couldn't be troubled to post an announcement to Lugnet, should it really
be there? Maybe it should, I'm just posing a question. I understand why the
work of Japanese builders has been highlighted in the past, they have the excuse
of a language barrier. I, for one, would like to see works featured by non
CSF-clubhouse members, or at least CSF members who can be bothered to
cross-post. You guys have your own private Idaho away from Lugnet, so it is
difficult to understand why you (the clubhouse) keep attempting to dominate this
forum. Let it go, open things up.
I anticpate your argument that..."well Keith, these mocs get highlighted because
they are the best of the best, not because of any agenda or bias."
I'm not buying it Lenny, my friend, I'm just not buying it. There have been
deserving mocs that have not made the highlight (none of them were mine, so I
can't be accused of sour grapes), and I can provide you a list if you need it.
Maybe this is all just a big coincidence, but since you guys (CSF clubhouse) are
so sensitive to charges of elitism, you might consider opening up the "MOC
Highlight" feature to a few people beyond your core group, or at least to those
who can be troubled to post an announcment to this forum.
Before anyone gets too excited, Lenny and I are buddies, and this has nothing to
do with the ongoing drama surrounding his larger administrative duties.
-Keith

My post had nothing to do with the speed at which you update the MOC Highlight,
you are confusing that with my rant from a few months ago. In fact, you have
been great about keeping it updated.

It isn't? Should I have taken it to the hidden forum on CSF? Sure I could have
emailed you, but at least this way there is no mistaking what I said, for better
or worse. It isn't like I'm derailing the overwhelming activity in .Space, and
I know for a fact that I'm not the only one who feels this way. You've got it
all wrong Lenny, I have every confidence in you.

to answer my own post-
the other reason why there hasnt been an update is that there has just been so
many great mocs the past few days.. i didnt know how to pick just one. but im
gonna make a list and get the really really good ones up there.. prolly later
tonight.

No you're right. I read a bit too quickly because I've been a little stressed
lately. Your post was about me spotlighting someone who SHOULDN"T be
spotlighted.
I don't care about where Tom posted the FUGLI. Some manufactured rivalry
between lugnet and csf is stupid, in my opinion. To me, the highlight is about
quality mocs.
if that makes me an elitist, then fine. i dont care.

Maybe an email would have been nicer, instead of calling me out in public.
ANd yeah, maybe id like to see that list of everyone ive been passing up because
they're not in the 'clubhouse'.. that would convince me a little bit more.

this is supposed to be fun. the moc highlight isnt something worth ranting and
raving about. keith thinks im a part of the space elite, and that i only put
other members of the space elite on the highlight. fine. he thinks im doing a
bad job. okay. im out. enough of this.
ive taken off the highlight, and deleted my name from the curator list. if
someone else wants to do this, fine.. they can. whatever.

Actually, I questioned (questioned) whether or not he should be spotlighted when
he doesnt post the moc to Lugnet, then I went off on an anti CSF rant.

Fair enough, all I was looking for was a little explanation...well, that and
poke at you (and the clubhouse) with a pointed stick. I didn't realize how
stressed out you were. Clearly the court of public opinion in this thread has
come down on your side, so maybe the angry guy needs to "relax" and jab the
pointed stick somewhere else.

Lenny,
I'm not sure people realized everything you are up to, plus close
involvement in several FOL sites. I certainly didn't.
I just want to point out that in times like this, when you have so much
going on, I've found it helpful to:
* step back for a short time before answering
* ask for clarification
* play with something - LEGO, computer games, leaves in a tree...something.
* get back to it when you're darned good and ready, instead of immediately
* wary be of the dark side. Strong the pull is of the dark side.
We're all human. I've enjoyed your presence here on LUGNET; please don't
give that up so easily. Just step back a little, take a breath, relax, and
reply when you've had a chance to think about things a little.
If I've read correctly elsewhere, Mr. Goldman is known to be something of a
smackster...are we really to believe half the crap that flies out of his
fingers? 8>) (smiley... you're getting VEEERY happy now... YEEESSSSSSS....
veeerryy happy... now, bark like a chicken!)
Dude, just don't let everything get to you. You're cool, and I wish you
much fun.
Peace and Long Life,
Tony Alexander

You're right, it is supposed to be fun, deep breath now, hold, exhale, good. To
quote Walter, "Dude, you're being very un-Dude right now." And yes Lenny, I
just compared you to the Dude from The Big Lebowski, which is very high praise
indeed.
And what I'm saying is, first of all, Goldie's post was actually worded kinda
diplomatically (well, worded diplomatically for him). His basic question was,
"is it a Good Thing or a Bad Thing that the Lugnet .space MOC highlight is
highlighting things that the builder doesn't even bother to post on Lugnet
itself?"
Which is a fair question.
And in my opinion, the answer is yes, it is a Good Thing to highlight such MOCs.
Because let's face it, I barely have time to read Lugnet, much less every other
AFOL-related website that's out there. And when I do peruse the .space group on
Lugnet, I like seeing a great MOC, regardless of who made it. And of course,
anything that makes my life better is what you guys should be doing, since I
spend so much of my time saving the world and all. It's the least you can do,
really. So please Lenny, come back, show me cool MOCs.
Besides, I think this whole thing is a plot by non-spacers (probably those
no-goodnik train pukes) to split up the ruling class (that's spacers for any
castle guys reading this). So if there's no .space MOC highlight, then the
terrorists, er, train pukes have already won. Don't let the train pukes win,
Lenny.
PS, when something is spotlighted on the main Lugnet page and it has, say, 13
spotlights and one think everyone hates oneself, realize that there are over
2000 registered Lugnetters who didn't spotlight that post and who mainly wish
that people would spend more time playing with Lego or otherwise making the
world a better place and less time whining about the impact that little pieces
of plastic have on their lives.

Curse you Schin! Aggghh it true, it is all true, I've been operating covertly
for Iltco for the last six months. My mission, destroy the spacers from within,
and eliminate the last pathetic rival to the glorious Brotherhood of
Locomotives! (BRO-LOCO) And it would of worked, if it weren't for you meddling
kids. Now that Sandlin has foolishly offered me some kind of curatorship, your
destruction is complete. Lenny was the best and brightest among you, and with a
simple jedi-mind trick...he's gone.

Nathan, I’m sorry for your poor treatment as shown above.
It was just Tuesday
and I’m sure it still stings.
As for all this “elitism” and “clubhouse” talk. I don’t get it. Its about
bricks and building better. CSF is not in competition with .space, heck it’s
advertised on the front page of LUGNET. It’s just a different kind of
conversation.
Some folks like being an “outsider” and sitting outside and complaining because
that’s who they are. It’s kinda sad. Especially when the door is open. Some
need to shore up their loner personality by distancing themselves from folks who
like them. I don’t get that.

I wasn't going to post (Lord knows I hardly ever do), but I did want to comment:
I joined CSF when it first went up, but it quickly didn't seem all that
friendly. No where near as friendly as lugnet.space; I realized that part of it
is probably that many of them knew each other fairly well, even if just online
personalities. Lots of smack-talk and whatnot.
It certainly didn't seem to lend itself to newcomers. It's intimidating and I
can certainly see why it might get labeled as a "clubhouse" or "elitist".
I'll concede that it might not be like that any more - I haven't been back in
months - but I kind of doubt it.
And it's too bad that's it's apparently turned lugnet.space into a ghost town; I
used to enjoy the getting my .space fix from here.

Wow, the ivory tower that was lugnet.space has finally fallen to the pettiness
that has fouled the rest of lugnet. And all it took was one man, a viral
attack, and a pack of lies. Then everyone jumps on the bandwagon to make
lugnet.space sound like the rest of lugnet. Pathetic!
I guess it's good to finally fit in.
Good job Kieth, er CaptianHate, that is your CSF name isn't it? Good choice
there, it fits...

First off, I've got nothing whatsoever to say about Keith's post. That's
his deal and I really don't have an opinion one way or another.
And obviously I don't need to say anything to shut down your yawn-worthy
elitist comment. It's that tired.
BUT I will say that at its height .space probably represented half of
LUGNET's total traffic. So taking that into account, CSF isn't really a
little club, it's just like .space, only bigger. Also, now we can get
the word out to more new builders who have been bewildered by LUGNET's
mystifying post setup process.
I don't know why you feel like you need to come in out of the blue and
peck at us. None of us have ever made you feel unwelcome.
We've even more than welcomed you despite your frequent tantrums in the
past:
http://news.lugnet.com/build/mecha/?n=955
http://news.lugnet.com/general/?n=30766
I just strongly suspect you have no idea what you're talking about or
you're just an angry guy or something.
Regardless, you are still completely welcome in lugnet.space and on CSF.
I've always loved your MOCs. I can't wait to see what you build in the
future.

That's not fair. While I'd love to take sole credit for such a demolition, I
would be remiss if I didn't mention the Freemasons, I couldn't have done it
without the Freemasons... well...and Little Debbie snack-cakes...and Fradel
Gonzalez. Beware of the 5th column! Burn Galactica! Burn!

Yes it is Jason, thanks, I was going to go with NeoHitler, TehPawnz0rd, Admiral
FussyPants and MrJerkfaceSatan but they were already taken.
Hugs and kisses, JW, I still love you.

Okay, yesterday was a REALLY bad day for me (online drama + problems at work and
at home, etc) and Keith's post was the straw that broke the camel's back. After
some intensive beer therapy and excessive vomitting, I'm back.
So this is what I came up with: from now on, the MOC Highlight is going to be
renamed "Lenny's MOC Highlight" - with the implication that this is what >I<
have been impressed with and want to give the spotlight. This will be any MOC,
whether posted to Lugnet, to CSF, to BrickShelf or anywhere else that I find it.
It will be work that I think is the best of the past few days. And it will
feature MOCs by people who are my friends, people who are acquaintances, and
people I've never met before - what interests me in this is MOC quality.
If you disagree with me, or feel that I've someone out who deserves recognition,
then sending me an email is best. That way we can talk about it without me
feeling put out in the spotlight where I'm forced to say something like "Keith's
work is good, sure, but its not THAT good. Tom's fighter is just better than
what Keith made, so I'm keeping Tom on the highlight."
To begin this new highlight, I'm gonna break a rule and put up more than one.
Space MOCs have been fiercely good lately, and I wanna pass out the recognition.
On a related note, Mark stepped down, and took his awesome graphics. I'll be
working on making some new ones so bear with me. I want to get this all up and
ready by the end of the night tonight.
Once again, Sorry for the drama everyone and thanks for the kind words.
-Lenny

Thank you Lenny. I'm glad to see your quick return! :D
While I am at it, I want to explain my below post:
http://news.lugnet.com/space/?n=38645
I always try to stay out of these types of discussions, but today I was feeling
a but grumpy and posted. Well, I've looked back and thought about it, and I
want to revise that post. I joined CSF the day is was announced publically. I
was new to 'the club', and therefore felt a bit shunned. I considered CSF
elitist. Well, now, I don't. I feel welcome now. I would espcially would like
to thank all the posters at CSF forum being extremely helpful and honest about
by latest MOC, the KOP Trooper. CSF has opened up. So, thanks. :)

Indeed. Now, back to building!

I don't mind that kind of silly! :-) But it's REALLY silly to highlight
whining.
'nuff said, rant off.

I really don't see what was so bad about the MOC Highlight being from other
places, I believed it allowed builders here to see really good MOCs they would
normally not see.
So there are my 2 bricks.
