Dude you guys dont have to argue it's ok by me no matter what any one post.
I mean every one is entitled to an opinion. I mean negative or posative its
ok. I know there is lot a tension here ever since castle World died.

Excuse me, but I must reply here a moment.

WHAT!!  I'm dead!?
Please, if you must, refer to me as UNDEAD.
That should clear things up.
I'm not tense, I'm high strung!

I was refering to the site but according to chris it was just on a vacation
and hope fully an update is comeing. All though it has been a while since an
update We will finally get one.I still say  we could use some new admins.
The ones like chir who are doing stuff are actually but maybe some subs are
in order. In stead of of replacing some one who is busy just get subs so
this doesn't happen again.

I will say this. I am an honor student. I have gotten an A- in english and a
B+ in reading. So I make typos that doesnt say I cant spell it says I cant
type. I am a pretty good skater and have a ton of friends but in summer it
gets boring so because I am home all summer I orginized a contest. Now if
Castle world was still running We could put the contest page on that site
but unfortunatly it will be dead till paul graduates.

No one said you are dumb, there are just a lot of anal retentave folk out
here who get in an uproar because of your grammar and language usage, it
becomes frustrating for those folk to read/decipher.

Fustration sure if say your spelling it like this. Te, yea of coarse but a
missing comma a wrong letter I mean come on people those are little thing.
You dont have to go nuts over not indenting or capitolization. I can
understand bigger mistakes though and get your point.

This is LUGNET, Castle World is something else, another place on the net
entirely as far as I am concerned.  You can still post your own stuff and
stories without Castle World.  I admire CW and all that it is, but it is not
MY castle world.

See thats kinda the piont but another piont is that more people read if you
let them know its thier. Yea of coarse you can still do it but if no cares
and your not an author the whats the point.


I don't know about you but I miss the good old days. Some one post about a
story a moc an idea a new page or anything everyone would respond and every
one would always be nice and happy. Ever since castle world die or went on
vacation or what ever people got depressed. There was a lack of post and it
just got boring here. Sure every once in a while a story would pop up maybe
a MOC or two but Its not the same. I came here because it was a nice group
of people but now what kind of an example are we setting. If some one is
looking for a theme he will certainly not come here. All you guys do is
argue and talk about this place being dead. The worst part is we were right.
Sure I started that because the Lego company was neglecting castle.

Gee, people post stories, MOC stuff, and ideas all the time.  Nice and happy
is fine, it still happens occasionally.  There is little new LEGO product in
Castle Theme, and all Themes have sudden drops in posts when that happens.
Boring? Lack of posts?  No it's not the same, many LUGNUTs have moved away
from communication here because of all the flame critique they get.  Dan all
you are doing here is, may I quote you, "argue and talk about this place
being dead."  Stop calling me dead, it's UNDEAD :)

Not you my friend the site. Now we have hope atleast thanks to Chris but
like I said Sub admins would be great to ensure we dont have a dry spell.


Now that we have an idea on the anger here maybe we should something about
it. First we should always try and be nice but that doesn't mean you cant
say you don't like what the idea or MOC it means try to post your feeling so
the person doesn't feel like no one cares enough to look. Trust me I get
some negative post but dont care at all.

The anger here is misplaced, some were upset by your typing and grammatical
skills and apparent anger at the rest of us "lazy people".  Just understand
that all of us are posting, discussing and commenting.  You may do that as
well.  If people don't like your posts, IGNORE them.  Or send them to the
Flame Chamber™!!  A few bad experiences are had by all of us because of the
tone and use of our and others language/writting skills.  The medium is
often not the best for casual communication because folks tend to get their
knutes knotted.

Second we need to over through the old admins or start a new site. It would
be easyer to over through the old guy but if I have to I will search for new
admins to help me. You know I can olny do so much I am just a kid.

Are you saying that Mutiny on the LUGNET is in order?  Do you really think
that would solve all your problems?  Seems to me that Todd and Suz have done
the best job any one could have.  I think you just need to understand that
the internet is populated by many lurking trolls.  Ignore them or cast a
"ZOT!" spell on them.

I was just kidding about over throwing them like that. I ment that they
pretty much no longer existed for a while and if we had the page back it
would make group events alot easyer and more official.

We know the problem and well some possible solutions. All we need is to put
in into action. If we can do that they we will truly be a community.
Remember key word is UNITY.


A concerned Castle Dude

Dan A. Ravenda

The question is, do you want a new community, an UNDEAD community, a
community that excludes some, or the ability to deliver the stink eye?

Well all I want is people to be happy. Undead is fine as long as your happy
I'm happy. Thanks to Chris and who ever is helping him maybe the good old
days will be revived. A day when we had things Like IOM ect......

Me, I like my Castle UNDEAD.
The Theme lives on as long as we create within it.
Stories are creating,
3D models are creating,
Pictures are creating,
Posts are creating,
CAD/LDraw models are creating.
So lets go, and damn the torpedoes!!!

Good now lets do so and hope people start to come in so the population grows.
