I don't feel censorious when I request people to stop ranting about the color
change, Bionicle, BURPs, Juniorisation and how stupid the set selection for 200x
is - I come here to read about Lego - not about people's personal problems.

Well, people come here to talk about everything LEGO.  This includes all the
aformentionned.  People also come here to express themselves on everything LEGO.
Expression themselves also means ranting if they feel like it.  If you don't
want to read it, you have 2 options:

1-Ignore these posts.
and/or
2-Go away.

It's a right to express an opinion, should it be positive or negative, about
LEGO and the products they make.  It's not YOUR right to tell people to shut up
if you don't like their opinions.

And LUGNET would be pretty boring IMHO if there were no debates on these topics.
Furthermore, it's good for the community to have debates and to have people not
agreeing on these topics.  The color change topic proved we could have a (very
small but still...) impact on the decisions that are being taken at TLG.

Respectfully yours,

Terry

The problem is not having debates on LUGNET. The problem is having the same
debate, over and over, with the same people saying the same things, and the same
conclusions.

At the very least, these debates should be contained to the appropriate place on
LUGNET. From what I and other admins can sense, the repeated spilling of such
discussions out of the appropriate groups are frustrating the majority of
posters just trying to enjoy themselves here on LUGNET.

Please play nice in the sandbox.
