Most Ambassador threads will be discussion topics and polls to gather fan feedback for LEGO. I (...) (18 years ago, 27-Nov-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

| | | | | (...) Hi Ben, thank you very much for wording this thought. I view the matter in a similar way. First I thought of lugnet.announce.ambassadors or lugnet.lego.ambassadors, but came to the conclusion to create a separate group for the reasons you have (...)

Ben, About about your last sentence... one of the things the first two or three cycles of Ambassadors discussed was how to be a two-way conduit between TLG and the community, but it sounds like that's changed to be more one way: info goes into (...)

I feel that my participation, however small, helped in some way to improve TLG's response to AFOL concerns. And I hope to (...) (18 years ago, 28-Nov-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

Improvement is one thing it certainly has a lot of potential for. (...) (18 years ago, 28-Nov-06, to lugnet.ambassadors, FTX)

They could give guidance with setting up public events. They could attend (...) (18 years ago, 30-Nov-06, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)
