(...) I've often wondered how representative the quoted membership numbers are. I remember hearing about instances of people signing up for multiple accounts so they could stuff the ballot boxes during prize-awarding MOC contests. There might also (...)

(...) -snip- (...) So what? Sorry Dave, you are just coming off as bitter here. BZP is a great place to hang out. And yes, it _is_ one of, if not the most popular Lego site out there - and yes even more popular than.... Mask Of Destiny (gasp!). (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) Don't forget to look at the title of this thread... "BZP hits 7,000th member-Lugnet is lagging behind." Which indicates a sort of compitition. I know that the topic of Lugnet member posts is a very old, beat up topic, but I guess we might as (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Indeed. (...) Plus, Todd and Suz are working on improving this system. Additionally, I point out that we cannot really compare these two forums based on number of members anyway. The two of them cater to different audiences and do not (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Some might like to view it as a friendly competition, but that's as far as I think it should go. I think we should be more oriented towards sharing resources in the community than trying to beat each other out for who's best, biggest, etc. I (...)

(...) I'm sorry you feel that way, but it was not the intent. My intent was primarily to point out that this was an apples/oranges comparison, and also to help defuse another Brick Vs. Bionicle argument before it could happen. I figured if people (...) (21 years ago, 31-May-03, to lugnet.general)
