The issue with fractioning groups is that a fan must scan more groups to
find new MOC's.
I only build mini-fig style models, but I like to look at pretty-much
everything else.
I think that the mecha sub-group is a good idea because it is a HUGE
percentage of the MOCS out there. However, there are a lot fewer sculpture
builders.
Because of this issue, I think that splintering the groups makes builders
more motivated to cross-post. For instance, if I were to build a sculpture,
I would be tempted to post it both to the sculpture group AND build.
Interestingly enough, I find that a lot of people don't even scan "build."
Occasionally, I'll be naughty and sneak a MOC post into general or
something, and people will say something like "Hey - I didn't know you were
building all that cool stuff!" In fact, I think I was actively posting on
LUGNET for about 6 months before I even found out about build. If we
further sub-divide build, then this problem will become more acute.
That's my 2 cents. I would prefer to see it remain all in "build," but I
don't intend to throw a big stink if they are split.
