We've just had news that now LEGO can post wherever they like. Cool, perhaps.

IIRC as a group we can change our charter and whatnot to allow/disallow
certain types of post. (E.g. permitting auction announcements or sales
announcements from Australian sellers, etc.) Pull me up quick if I'm wrong here.

Anyways, I want to throw out a really big idea.

No LEGO posting in loc.au.

What makes you think they'd want to? How can posting to groups, unless it's
group specific, possibly be beneficial to LEGO?

Before there are any knee jerk reactions, lets have some reasoning.

If someone can marshall some good things that we may hear from LD/LEGO,
important stuff that might be specifically Australian, excellent, I'd love
to hear it, and be happy for LEGO to post. Otherwise, I think it's just
going to be a whole lot of pointless noise, bells and  whistles that we
can't access (yet, if ever) or can get pending $90 shipping and handling.

They've hardly gone berserk with noise and bells and whistles on the
group(s?) they have been allowed to post to.... do you think they were just
lulling the rest of LUGNET into a false sense of security?

Cheers
