However, on your “this a just a toy” sentence, I agree. But it doesn’t mean we have to screw everything we do about LEGO just because it’s not as important as, say, a decent health-care system. I’m taking my hobby seriously, I expect people to respect that. Not necessarily take it seriously as I do, but at least not screw it up for me.

Unless you REALLY make a point to make sure they don’t. And then they’re going to see it as being heavy handed (why do you think LDRAW.org makes you log in to vote for MOTM and SOTM?)
