WHEW! This topic of feedback has grown so big and deep that I figure I
might as well go into the pre-LUGNET, pre-RTL, pre-online world that many of
us AFOL's lived in.
Here's the Q. Did you get feedback 10, 15, 20 yrs or more ago from your
MOC's?
A : Well, I can certainly say it wasn't online.
Ten years ago, that's December of 1992, I did not know any AFOLs like
myself. I was just some 22yr old guy who would regularly check out his
favorite LEGO shops or go ga-ga when the latest SAH catalog arrived on his
mailbox. Feedback for a MOC 10 yrs ago = zero.
In Dec. of 1987, I was the only TFOL (teen-FOL) I knew of in my h.s.
Feedback for a MOC 15 yrs ago = none.
In 1982, I had buddies who played w/ the bricks w/ me and bought sets too.
Feedback for a MOC 20 yrs ago = enough back then, about 15 or so of us but
wasn't online, just face to face.
I'm not giving a thumbs up/down to the whole idea of posting MOCs up, just
that some of us were able to get by and continue to build w/o having to go
online.
Adr.

| (...) I dunno. I sure hope that people have enough of their own steam to keep doing what they love without demanding positive feedback. But I guess if it's not rewarding enough to put your creations online because you don't get scads of feedback, (...) (22 years ago, 17-Dec-02, to lugnet.general)
