Oh, my bad. I thought there was because in a recent discussion (on making a
monsters or studios group) someone suggested getting rid of some of the
low-traffic groups (I believe they specifically mentioned .underground) and
someone else responded that this was a Lego theme and as such deserved a
newsgroup. So I thought that was the policy.

Quite understandable.

Oh, I'm not down on the group itself, I'm more down on the Galidor products.
I think they're so far outside what I think of as "Lego" that they don't
really fit. That said, though, I agree that any Galidor discussion that
might occur will need a home of its own, to avoid stirring up the ire of others.
I'm a relatively recent (6 months) Lugnet member, but I would assume there
was a similar influx of new posters clashing with System builders when
Bionicle was first introduced. For instance there was a big discussion a
while back of whether Bionicle (and especially icons for Bionicle Zone)
belonged on Brickshelf (which resulted in the quite helpful categorization
of Brickshelf).
