Jake, please, please shut up! Do you believe what you are writing? We don`t need your way of community development. I give you a good hint: Look for another job! We don`t trust in any word from you nor TLC. Tomorrow white will die, then red, (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

[snipped lots of not positive blabla] (...) I do not feel understod at all. If this is your final update, you have finally lost a consumer, a big fan, a big supporter and promoter. My buys for this years sets is less than 1% of what I bought in the (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) I wondered about some numbers, so I consulted Peeron: Those named above are 9 most used colours (minus the 'new' word, of course). These account for 91% percents of parts used in all sets. Original Gray is #2 (15.4%), DkGray #7 (3.9%), Brown (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) Yep. If I thought ranting and carrying on would increase our influence in the company rather than diminish it, or would be likely to reverse the change, I'd be out there ranting too. (...) Agreed. Jake started out as in charge of some aspects (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) ... Hi, and at the purple colour you have to think about a little more, how the exact colour has to look like, hmm? What other colours will you try in a wild mix in one set like the HP-bus? Maybe some sorts of tan in the next starwars-set? Or (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego)

(...) red green blue yellow white black new light gray new dark gray new brown Funny thing: Remove the 3 new colors, add back the 3 old colors plus tan (I'm indifferent to tan, but I know a lot of people love it) and I would bet 9 out of 10 of us (...)

(...) In all seriousness, do you suppose that this is how MEGABLOKS does it? I've noticed for years that their "white" is more "white" than LEGO "white," but I never knew the underlying reason. Is there a simple, reliable way to discern the (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, FTX)

(...) Actually, I'm not being that magnanamous. I don't like the color change and if ranting or anything else might get it reversed I will rant. My point was rather that I can't understand why people are questioning that TLC's reasons as given by (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) That's part of the problem. You do get much greater accuracy as you increase the size of the batch. It's also probably a lot easier to do with sheet extrusion than with injection molding, where you have a constant flow of a large amount of (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.general)
