I will do the following as of right now.
1. Stop asking for parts, help with parts, models, help with models and related
questions (e.g. is this part in ldraw questions).
2. Start using capital letters and checking the spelling of messages
3. Refrain from posting parts to the parts group until I have figured out what i
am doing wrong when it comes to my parts and unless I am 300% sure that the part
is correct.
4. Stop being a gimme gimme person and start contributing to things like the
Official Model Repository (I have a very good percentage of castle models ldrawn
waiting for the OMR to get off the ground and am ldrawing more all the time e.g.
i am about to start 6080 kings castle and others)
5. Start improving the quality of my parts (but you will admit that the parts
are better this time around than the first tome and that some of them are
actually ready or almost ready)
Having real lego helped immensely when making parts for this vote etc. etc.
