Well, people come here to talk about everything LEGO. This includes all the
aformentionned. People also come here to express themselves on everything LEGO.
Expression themselves also means ranting if they feel like it. If you don't
want to read it, you have 2 options:
1-Ignore these posts.
and/or
2-Go away.
It's a right to express an opinion, should it be positive or negative, about
LEGO and the products they make. It's not YOUR right to tell people to shut up
if you don't like their opinions.
And LUGNET would be pretty boring IMHO if there were no debates on these topics.
Furthermore, it's good for the community to have debates and to have people not
agreeing on these topics. The color change topic proved we could have a (very
small but still...) impact on the decisions that are being taken at TLG.
Respectfully yours,
Terry
