You know I'm not sure why I'm even posting. I've yet to see any comment about either of the modules we have done here. I had to find out from a NLF (Non-Lego Friend) that both were built wrong. Now I think that's just wrong. I know that I/we aren't .space big wigs, but having no response at all from ANYBODY makes me think that we're not wanted. For people wanting to get in on the space scene this is VERY distressing. Anyway here it goes AGAIN! These images are of the repaired and now conforming to standards Arcane Family home Module.

(...) Patience, young Obi-Drumm. The Force flows whence it will in .space, not always in ways or directions that we understand. Getting comments is not the true path of the brick... this lies more truly in having fun. Did you have fun building it? (...) (22 years ago, 2-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

		Re: Why do I bother? (was Re: Moonbase Module, the evolving Arcane home)
(...) Try not to let it bother you too much. A lot of folks get missed. Usually it's because several other people may have wowed the group at the same time, or sometimes lots of new MOCs are posted suddenly almost at the same time. It's not angst, (...) (22 years ago, 2-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

Never stop posting Nicole et al! I know that at times it can seem like you post and nothing is returned but the crickets, but I have found that often it is due to circumstances of the moment. I've found that around prime vacation time (beginning of (...) (22 years ago, 3-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

		Re: Why do I bother? (was Re: Moonbase Module, the evolving Arcane home)
(...) This question comes up by someone at least once a month and the same conversation always ensues. Go to your Brickshelf account and look at the number of veiws. At the time I'm writing this, you've got >2500 hits. People are looking. So what do (...) (22 years ago, 3-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

		Re: Why do I bother? (was Re: Moonbase Module, the evolving Arcane home)
I usually don't get involved in discussions of this nature, but I have spare time today. I find that when I post a new MOC, I get about 1 reply for about every 100-200 people that view the post. This is ascertained by checking hit counters on (...) (22 years ago, 3-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

		Re: Why do I bother? (was Re: Moonbase Module, the evolving Arcane home)
(...) <snip> I've seen your ship/module, watched it grow and like it. I just haven't commented on it. I don't comment on every creation posted, although I try to post on/highlight/spotlight those that catch my eye. Just because didn't post doesn't (...) (22 years ago, 4-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

		Re: Why do I bother? (was Re: Moonbase Module, the evolving Arcane home)
(...) You post because you are a Drumm, a caring member of the LEGO community. Need more be said? (22 years ago, 4-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

		Re: Why do I bother? (was Re: Moonbase Module, the evolving Arcane home)
(...) I've just read the other responses to your post here, and your responses to them, and I just wanted to add that, yes, I liked your moonbase module very much. The fact that you combined an existing TLG product design into a moonbase module is (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

		Re: Why do I bother? (was Re: Moonbase Module, the evolving Arcane home)
(...) I know what you mean. That's why I don't bother posting links to my MOCs or to site updates anymore. Nowadays, I don't really care if people see my MOCs or not. Hell, I don't know why I bother uploading pictures to brickshelf. (22 years ago, 6-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)
