Sometimes I think that all of you forgot that this is a toy. A toy for kids
that we are so lucky to get to play with. If you HATE the change so much sell
your LEGO®. LEGO® WILL NOT change back. So stop crying like a little school
girl who just scraped her knee. I’ve seen all the rants, cartoons, and stupid
little form letters to send to Jake. Give the man a rest. Better yet tell him
thank you.
To Jake:
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m not even going to address the color issue, as I have made my opinion known
on LUGNET, and I’m making my opinion known to TLC by voting with my dollars.
What’s bothering me are the repeated demands for silence from those who disagree
and continue to be unhappy with the color change. To those who are happy with
the color change:
- Is it that offensive to hear opinions that don’t conform to your own?
- Aren’t there any options other than forming a consensus (in favor of the change) or keeping silent? Can’t we continue to express contrary opinions?
- Why is unhappiness with the color change issue construed as a personal attack on Jake McKee? I have no beef with Jake - he didn’t decide to change the colors. Let me add my own big thanks to Jake for all that he does. But it’s his job to communicate between TLC and AFOLs, so he’s the guy I express my opinions (positive and negative) to. What’s wrong with that?
- Why SHOULD we give up? AFOLs complained for years about (for example) the lack of bulk bricks - and now we have bulk discounts and Pick-a-Brick. I don’t think it was a coincidence.
That’s all. I respect your right to voice your opinions on LUGNET. Please
respect mine.
