It was that last sentence that really got me thinking.  Some posts I've seen put
up about going into a "quasi-dark-age" have just left me uneasy.  There is
nothing wrong voicing displeasure with what LEGO has done but to take as far as
"That's it! I'm outta here!" (not those exact words, but...) just bugs the
*bleep* out of me.

It doesn't bug me. If they're only going to stick around to complain, then I'd
rather not have to filter through their posts.

To read of an AFOL leave because of money, family, health, etc. is one thing but
to leave because of a company's dumb decision is another.

Yes, I think it's quite extreme. It puzzles me, but it doesn't upset me. To each
his own.
