  Re: LEGO set 4999 Vestas (please release it)
 
(...) I'd love the chance to buy this set! Please release it! -Joel (16 years ago, 17-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGO set 4999 Vestas (please release it)
 
(...) Over at the LEGO Ambassador forums, we have been actively discussing this set and are as excited about it as all of you are. It is unclear from the information presently available whether this set will ever be released to the public. However, (...) (16 years ago, 17-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX) !

(...) I second too. (16 years ago, 17-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGO set 4999 Vestas (please release it)
 
I second everything that has been said about this set: It's too good to be limited to an exclusive group of commercial customers. Make this thing public, and if Vestas objects (why on Earth should they?), paste a fantasy brand on the turbine. That's (...) (16 years ago, 17-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGO set 4999 Vestas (please release it)
 
(...) Lego is looking for new set ideas... well this seems to be an instant hit. Yep, I'd buy at least one too. Have Fun! C-Ya! Rich (16 years ago, 17-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGO set 4999 Vestas (please release it)

(...) Outrageous! You need at least a dozen to make a reasonably realistic looking wind farm. (16 years ago, 17-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) I googled the set and came up with the following two links: (URL) and (URL) is a very nice set, I will buy if given the opportunity. Ed (16 years ago, 16-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: LEGO set 4999 Vestas (please release it)
 
(...) Amen to that! I agree that this set needs to be released to the general public. -Dave ToT-LUG (16 years ago, 16-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  LEGO set 4999 Vestas (please release it)
 
Dear LEGO and Vestas, LEGO #4999 (Wind Turbine) is a promo set only to be sold or given away to Vestas employees as a gift. (I am not sure). I would suggest and hope LEGO would release this set world wide through LEGO Shop&home and through LEGO (...) (16 years ago, 16-Jul-08, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, FTX) !! 
 
  A request to ambassadors
 
Hi all, Most if not all of you have seen the leaked pictures of the set 4999 Vestas Windmill, and the intense desire of AFOLs to get this set. There are other promo sets in the past, especially airline and ferry sets, that required travel on those (...) (16 years ago, 16-Jul-08, to lugnet.ambassadors, lugnet.general) ! 
 
  Re: How to properly "announce" MOC's
 
(...) First of all, this is a really nice addition to LUGNET. Thanks, Jerry. Even apart from the worry over some LUGNET posters intentionally driving up their own "view counts" for egotistical reasons, I would appreciate some sort of reload-blocking (...)

  Re: How to properly "announce" MOC's
 
(...) I admit I have been tempted to do so already - however the figures as of now are not exactly meaningful yet. This may change rather quickly. I wouldn't want to encourage anyone to "click their posts up the charts" though, if you see what I (...) (16 years ago, 8-Jul-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: How to properly "announce" MOC's
 
(...) This is a fantastic implementation! Nicely done! Will there be a future state where we'll get nightly (or weekly) listings for top read articles akin to the top sets list that LUGNET automatically generates? Just wondering. Keep up the (...) (16 years ago, 8-Jul-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

  Some statistics based on the new read counter
 
All, I just thought you might find this interesting: I have been monitoring the read counter for articles since its implementation last night (local time in Germany ;) ). Out of a grand total of approx. 693,000 articles in the LUGNET newsgroup tree, (...) (16 years ago, 8-Jul-08, to lugnet.general)

  Re: How to properly "announce" MOC's
 
(...) ;) You know, I actually could have implemented some kind of reload-blocking, but then again I'm pretty sure the effort wouldn't pay off in the long run. I have just checked the read counts collected since the update, and it lists some 16,000 (...) (16 years ago, 8-Jul-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
