I'll second Tamy here. LUGNET has become downright beligerent in it's
treatment of TLG Staffers. Restriction is unfair, and tantamount to
segregation. "You work at LEGO, so you can only use these drinking
fountains..." This isn't fair to TLG or the rest of the community.
To agrivate the problem, every post TLG makes here is jumped upon by all,
myself included, for more and sometimes off-topic information (Bulkpack
questions tacked onto every post Jake makes, for instance). LUGNET is a bit
ornery. FBTB is a friendly community. In my time there I've never seen a
flame war, and their average age is half that of LUGNET.
That's not to say I will drop LUGNET altogether. Our LUG uses this as a
wonderful meeting-forum. But, for TLG info, I'll be looking to FBTB from
now on, as they've tried to cultivate a relationship, not drive it into the
ground.
That's my Rant for now,
