(...) Was that changed back because of a letter to the CEO sent by a member of LUGNET? I'm sorry I must have missed that one. Yeah, changing DUPLO was a mistake, and they changed it back. But that was the kind of mistake that affects their core (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) The only message Ben is sending is that he is a WHINER. LEGO knows that AFOL's are not its main customers, and whatever changes they make or don't make have nothing to do with what AFOL's want. Messages like this just make AFOL's look like (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Dear Orion, I am very sorry about this, but we had not the intention to speak for all AFOLS. How could anybody do so? This was just a single mistranslation and it slipped through the many times the letter got proofread (in fact we worked very (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) I've got lots of suggestions for how you worded the letter, but my biggest one--if the letter doesn't fit on one page, revise until it is one page. Try to keep your passion for the color change out of the discussion--because it only makes one (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)

(...) First, if the packs sold out in days or weeks, not months--perhaps *someone* would notice. If it took 8 months to sell 10,000 packs...that's and average of 42 packs a day. That's not a very rapid fill rate, nor is it something for a (...) (20 years ago, 19-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)

(...) I DON'T agree with this letter and I think sending it from "the group of Adult Fans Of LEGO® (AFOLs)" is misleading. David Arnon, who will buy the new 2005 Technic sets in a heartbeat. (20 years ago, 20-Jan-05, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Some snippage. (...) I agree with Peter, I think excessive crossposting is something to be avoided. And I'm not the only person that feels that way.
