Well I guess the LUGNET gods have spoken. No hard feelings here, but I do
wish there could be more groups with a higher degree of specialization with
regards to subthemes. I suggested it just for easy access to certain
subthemed threads. I figured that if Primo, Belville, Scala, etc could
warrant a group then certainly Arctic would. In the last month there has been
more posts regarding Arctic than the other three I mentioned in their entire
lifespan. What is the criteria? Why Scala, but not Arctic? Why Primo, but
not Divers? Why any low traffic theme over any other with people requesting a
specific posting forum? I realize the system is theme grouping, but if
traffic justifies anything the Town subthemes must be considered. If nothing
else why not start a new product line posting group? This would be a place
where we could talk about all the new sets of a given year. Then you could
see what themes seem to warrant their own groups. Todd, this is not a slam on
your system (which is very good) it is just an idea to be kicked around. Who
knows maybe we can all come to a mutual decision that makes everyone happy.
At the very least LUGNET's current system will be more understood by its users
and therefore stronger.
Cheers,

LEGO PRIMO, LEGO SCALA, and LEGO BELVILLE are all examples of whole Product Programmes, on par with LEGO DUPLO, LEGO SYSTEM, LEGO MINDSTORMS, etc., whereas Arctic and Divers are merely short-lived play themes within the Town System.
