Well spoken, James.
Clearly I support LEGO in that I buy their product. If I *truly* wanted to
bash TLC, I would simply cease to buy any modern LEGO set... an option that I
would find frighteningly easy to excercise. My LEGO budget can easily be spent
buying secondhand sets online, and LEGO would cease to see any money coming
from me.
Quite on the contrary, I buy their products and wish them well. If I have a
negative thing to say here and there about their policies and practices, I
will. If that means some folks feel like I'm "bashing" them, well, that's not
going to phase me or deter me from expressing my opinion.
