  Bringing Up an Old Thread
 
The following project seems interesting. (...) Can anyone tell me if this project is completed, or if it is posted anywhere? Good luck if you are still working on it. Thanks for the info. MM (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Quantifying and Classifying the LEGO Community
 
(...) My personal feeling is that the "LEGO community" doesn't really exist. That is to say there isn't a singular entity that can qualify to classify the group that might make up this definition. But rather, in my mind what you might really be (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.fun.community)

(...) Great topic, Tim! Hmm... Well time for Hendo to babble again... :) In my analysis, the term "Lego Community" is a group of humanity that reaches far beyond any of the limitations you have suggested. The entire Lego Community includes TLC (...) (22 years ago, 9-Apr-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.fun.community)

  Virus spam from Kim Brodie targetting LUGNET members?
 
Heya y'all, I don't know if this is old news or not, but a LUGNET search on "brodie" turned up 0 results. OTOH, it seems there was some discussion about 2 weeks back about a virus email hitting .space and .castle users... Anyway, for about a month (...)

Hey everyone! Long time no see... It's been a while, eh? Man.. I haven't posted here in well over a year, maybe even 2. What sparks this new post you ask?

  Quantifying and Classifying the LEGO Community
 
Over the better part of the last year, I've done a lot of thinking about the LEGO hobby and the LEGO community, trying to develop a philosophy on it which I use to channel my efforts, energies, and interactions.
