Spewing venom will not get anyone anywhere. The only thing it will serve to do
is create emnity between the two groups here - the AFOLs and LEGO Direct, and
cause both sides to be frustrated even more with each other. If you feel that
way, great, keep it to yourself because I for one (and a lot of others) don't
want to see LUGNET member stirred up to the point they can't be constructive -
and I'm sure it frustrates Brad, Jake, Tomas, etc on the other end to the point
they don't want to post.
Quoted from http://news.lugnet.com/lego/direct/?n=1733 by Tomas Clark:
- Reading Lugnet newsgroups. There are several of us who read
lugnet.dear-lego and lugnet.lego.direct daily. I frequently do so at home,
so that I can get other work done in the office. So yes, we're listening --
we're just figuring out how we can answer these questions. If I knew all the
answers off the top of my head, believe me, I'd post. And when we do know
the answers, we do post. This is especially true of specific questions. Jake
responded</A> to the Microsoft deal "controversy,"
From someone with a bit more familiariry with the LEGO Direct employees who post
here than the average LUGNET member - they're genuinely decent people who are
doing their best to do their jobs and do want to see us satisfied. Some stuff
can't be talked about, some stuff they're genuinely working on. And as Tomas
said, they do read both dear-lego and lego.direct groups daily.

Always a good attitude to hold. Yup. Sugar with that?
Lighten up man - don't make it worse for all of us by frustrating the guys at
the office. They're real people too you know - and I imagine they get pretty
frustrated when they get slammed by (uninformed) people like you. Sure, I could
have this attitude if I wanted, because heck, I'm in the same boat when it comes
to getting parts. Or, I could try to do/say positivie stuff to change that (and
we all could).

| I probably shouldn’t be answering a troll post, but I post infrequency enough anyway. I find it hard to believe I’m siding with Larry again. Having worked for Lego in what seems like a long ago life, I can understand your frustrations about the time (...) (24 years ago, 3-Feb-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)
