Those “two pages of MOC pictures” are things created and submitted by kids, most
under the age of 13. Brickshelf required you be older than 13, with the median
age (I’m confident) being well into the 20s or older.
Again, I have no idea what TLG plans may or may not exists, and that’s not the
point of my post. I just wanted to make sure that we don’t start down a path of
discussion that’s not worthwhile.
