		Re: Polybag Racks (was: Shopping Anecdote and Suggestions (Long))
(...) That (LEGO's current HTO concept) is not what I'm talking about. As Mike said, $5 is not an impulse buy. Also, the current displays lack variety. One set is not an adequate selection for a really interesting display. I have also seen the Ninja (...) (24 years ago, 10-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

		Re: Brickfest Questions
(...) It's a name for Baltimore that came from the 19th century. Baltimore was a pretty violent place then (oh wait, it still is), mostly from political conflicts. Every election was like a huge battle in the streets between rival factions, which (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.org.us.wamalug)

I've read the Pacific volumes of Samuel Eliot Morison's History of US Naval Operations, but I don't remember there being too much in there about (...)

		Re: LEGO Company announces poor performance in year 2000
(...) Not knowing what is going on at LEGO, I have to take them at their word. If they say, "We screwed up, we're going back to what worked", why not believe them? When they said, "Kids are dumb, so we have to make video games and crappy sets, (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.general)

		Re: Libertarian Propaganda

I was just saying that whatever we decide they are, it is fine to use force to protect them. But if by economic imperialism, you mean free (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: LEGO is listening! (was...are you listening?)
(...) Does this make any sense? Why would you want to make a product that a kid can be done with in 5 minutes and then forget about? Wouldn't you want kids to spend a lot of time with your product, so they become attached to it (like I did when I (...) (24 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.dear-lego)

		Re: The Relationship - LEGO and its Fans (was: Re: Official vs. unofficial LEGO postings)
(...) theme (...) I'm certainly confused. A few months ago people were citing the Cluetrain Manifesto and begging for LEGO to talk to us. Now we want to box them into one little space on LUGNET because all LEGO wants is (gasp!) money. I certainly (...) (24 years ago, 16-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp, lugnet.lego.direct)

		Re: Community to design new LEGO T-shirts
(...) Could you just contract out the shirts to whoever does them now? I mean the t-shirts and polos in the catalog and at outlets. I think I am more interested in having a say in the look of the shirts than how they are produced. As for high (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

		Re: Polybag Racks (was: Shopping Anecdote and Suggestions (Long))
(...) I don't think that will happen. LEGO's usual design for polybags is 1 minifig and a small cart/backdrop/vehicle to go with him. I'm more concerned with getting more polybags out there than changing the way they make them. Especially since they (...) (24 years ago, 12-Mar-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

		Re: BrikWars Campaign .. first battle writeup
To whoever asked who did the special effects, it was me. It was done in about 5 seconds in a freeware verson of Photoshop 2.0. I hear 5.0 is really spiffy. (...) Do'h to both of those! I'll change it tonight. Obviously, they were both just typos. (...) (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.us.wamalug, lugnet.gaming)

		Re: Compromised Functionality on Lugnet and Brickshelf?
(...) Very good points here. Lugnet has much greater functionality built in than is routinely used. In part this is due to user inaction, but in part this is also due (IMO) to the invisibilty of the functionality. For instance, there is no easy way (...)
