I've always wanted to say something like this... but I never had the
courage! :) I have to say, I agree on every point.

Very true. This is one of the reasons that Joel Kuester left, I believe-
the 'hey that's cool' posts.
You're stuff is great, by the way- especially the Highwind and the Space
Moose- but this is no place for model feedback.

I have noticed this ALOT. Not to name any names... but some of the truley
phenomenal builders just sort of 'hang out' together, responding mainly only
to each other's MOCs. They seem to build a mystique around themselves, and
the few times they do post they get a tremendous amount of responses, just
because they are who they are, and not necessarily because of the actual post.
I find this a bit annoying... but after all, some builders (*cough cough*
Gil Shaw) leave a large amount of good feedback... but still, one or two is
not enough.
Look at this MOC:
http://news.lugnet.com/space/?n=19233
the Trundeller is just awesome! But when I came around it a day and 1/2
later, it had no responses! NONE! And now I am the only respondant to this
MOC.
I'm sure that if Aaron was somebody else more well known he would get much
more feedback.
