I never upload anything to it now (and I'm considering revising my website so it doesn't point to anymore images there). I honestly (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.general) !!

| | | | | A big "me to" here. It is really a sad thing to see happen. Not only was it slow when you first brought up this topic, but I feel it is worse now. I feel it may be a result of lack of $$$ which means less bandwith. KL, just ask and I know you shall (...) (22 years ago, 26-Nov-02, to lugnet.general)

I see something a lot like how Lugnet is working, where you can have posting abilities w/o membership, but no added benefits. and benefits could include loading w/o moderation (and if someone does (...)

| | | | | You are right, Jon. People need to realize that "free" is relative anyway. Sure, Kevin did a great deed in setting up the site and helping to build the community.

Kevin could do some investigation of costs though, and come to (...) (22 years ago, 27-Nov-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.dear-lego)

I guess I just dream of it being well supported, as well as being a strong community for sharing our Lego projects. I think TLG has the resources (...)
