According to someone who worked for Ashley at LEGOLAND California, Ashley
doesn't actually work for LEGO anymore. If other LEGO employees wish to
post there officially, we'll reexamine the issue.

Try not to think of it as a restriction so much as harder lines about where
LEGO employees are invited to post in an official manner. When LEGO Direct
showed up unannounced in December, 1999, it was a jolt to the community.
Certain things just changed overnight -- some for the better, some for the
worse. We created the special lugnet.lego.* hierarchy of groups later to
help LEGO Direct focus one aspect of its direct-to-consumer communications
channel. That's why that area exists and why the offer for LEGO to post
here in and among the fan community shouldn't be assumed to extend to all
the groups. Remember that LUGNET is a site by fans, for fans -- and the
sanctity of the theme groups is vitally important. It's not necessary for
LEGO to participate in the theme groups (for example) to have a presence
here.
