Hey guys,
Congratulations on the site launch. I’ve just done some brief looking around
and it looks really well made. You might even inspire me to try my hand at
some mecha building. :) The forum style seems really odd to me, being more
used to the Lugnet forum and the phpbb-style forums used at Classic-Castle,
Classic Space, FBTB and Eurobricks, but I suppose that is just something to
get used to.

Thank you Bruce! We would love to see what you come up with if you ever try
mecha. I agree that the 4chan style board is odd to us who are used to phpbb
boards. It does take a little bit to get comfortable. But once you try it you’ll
never go back! And remember the first time you hit a phpbb board after being
used to Lugnet? :-)

Good luck on further growth in the mecha theme. Also good luck in suffering
the slings and arrows of those who will claim you are gutting Lugnet.
|
I believe those who follow the mecha genre understand perfectly well. I’m
expecting the rest of the community to be just as positive and “community” as
your comments.

When
they complain, point out that while theme specific sites have, admittedly,
drained 98% of the traffic from lugnet.castle, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space,
etc, they’ve actually led to much greater overall posting in those themes and
fostered new builders. I’m sure that MechaHub will have a similar effect in
bringing forth new mecha builders and improving techniques.
|
I’m hoping for renewed groth and interest in the genre. I’m tired from all the
late nights but very excited about the future of Lego Mecha building. Thank you
for taking a second to comment.
