  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
Trimmed lots of groups and moved to .general. I agree with Terry, LUGNET is -in my world- the central place for all things LEGO. Sure, there are a lot of sites that don't get much attention from LUGNET and there are other issues, most beacuse Todd (...) (22 years ago, 12-Feb-04, to lugnet.general)

Hi everyone Please forgive my ignorance but could someone explain what LUGNET is if it does not meet the description of a LEGO fansite? I have read some of the posts regarding WorldLUG and now LEGOFan.net but I may be missing something here. Also, (...)
