Lugnet has a problem.
No one can have their own opinion if it differs from everyone elses.
If they do, they are attacked. Read the posts that were in reply to my own,
stating my discontent with the re-release of the Castle set the Guarded Inn.
Because I don't rate that set highly and would rather see another in its place,
I am branded a 'complainer about all that lego does.'
Well here is my response to that.
Citizens of Lugnet, this is one AFOL that will no longer be posting to lugnet
unless it deals directly with his own website. Why? Because if YOU don't care
about what I have to say, then I have no reason to say anything, do I? Don't
think this is some isolated case, either. I have stated my opinions all over
lugnet, and I am either looked over, ignored, or beaten down. Forgive me for
being me. In all reality, I should never post again, as I cannot see a really
good reason to. But because there are the select few whom I care about here on
lugnet, and they care about me, I would think, I shall not leave entirely. As
for the rest of you, well, I hope God gives you the good graces to understand
those who are just a little different than the pack.
To Lego Direct, I never said rereleasing sets was a bad idea. I just think you
could have picked a MUCH better set than the Guarded Inn that represented the
castle line.
And that is my final two cents.

| Anthony (et al.), I followed these posts-ALL OF THEM-and there was some really good talk on all three sides of the fence (if you count those sittin' on the pickets-ouch!). From a fresh perspective, I would like to say that no one in the thread typed (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

That's why there are all these posts about what sets should come next -- those are the very sets that a lot of people (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

The Guarded Inn and the Sopwith Camel are probably the exceptions. Should someone take the other view and (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

| I'm sorry you feel this way, Anthony. I read through the posts and I think, by and large, that most of the replies were pretty cordial, but there were a couple that went a bit overboard on attacking you personally instead of debating your point. I (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

| (...) Well... I dunno if "attacked" is the right word here-- surely if you offer up an opinion that others don't share, they're likely to respond. It's human nature, not Lugnet. Of course attacking does happen, but usually, people set a tone. If I (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
