I agree with Steve some people just aren't into it. I'll stereotype a bit
and and say the demographic that ain't into it is a bit older. Is there
anybody in the .mecha group that's over 35? I doubt it.
Another thing I've noticed is some people don't even no what to make of
mecha. I've had a woman refer to my innocent valkyrie as a "monster or
whatever it is". :(
Now let me take this opportunity to state why mecha is the bestest. First
of all I think there is a lot of innovation in this group. People using
pieces and methods in ways you may never see in castle or trains(no offense
i like these too). Individuals really pushing the limit of what is possible
with this little brick from denmark.
Second, we are a very prolific group. Tons of new creations coming out
constantly. There's always eye candy to look at.
Third, I think the stuff that comes out of here is very creative. I'll let
that statement stand in it's own stark simplicty.
