    Re: Faces of LUGNET —Eric Kingsley
   (...) I think this would be a great Idea. I would guess that it would just be Names and Pictures so we would know who we were talking to. I know that I have put rules up for my site when I host model pictures. I don't allow things like Ages, (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jul-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.general)
   
        Re: Faces of LUGNET —Fredrik Glöckner
   (...) Personally, I would find such a page funny. I recently checked out a page with pictures from a LEGOfest and was amused to see what people looked like. But I would hardly say that such a page is needed. If anybody bothers to maintain such a (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jul-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.general)
   
        Re: Faces of LUGNET —Greg Majewski
     (...) How about a place where people submit minifigs that look like them? I have made a minifig of myself, take a look here to see what I mean: (URL) could avoid any "bad stuff," and nobody would ever know if you were an AFOL or not. Greg (...)

         Re: Faces of LUGNET —Eric Harshbarger
     (...) In addition to pictures and names (and maybe email), you could potentially allow the user to associate a link with their pic. At the end of the link (on thier site) they could putwhatever contact/bio information they wished... this could (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jul-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.general)

     (...) I've seen your site and it's very nice. Keep up the good work/fight. (...) It's a safer policy I have to admit.

        appeals mainly to adults —Todd Lehman
   (...) At this stage in its development, it kind of does aim for that a little bit. That is, it's been a conscious decision to make the site much more appealing and useful to adult LEGO Maniacs than to kids or parents of LEGO-Maniac kids, while (...)

        Re: appeals mainly to adults —Eric Kingsley
   (...) This is exactly why I like it here so much. For so many years I did not build with Lego because "society" said it was a toy and a 30 year old should not build with Lego (Society and Peer presure suck some times). Then one day I was helping my (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jul-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.general)
   
        Re: appeals mainly to adults —Gary R. Istok
    (...) Well said Eric! I agree, Todd deserves a lot of credit. I also liked your point about how society looks upon a 30 year old playing with toys. Boy did that bring back memories. I left my dark ages in 1979 (at age 26) and was thrown into the (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jul-99, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.general)
