  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
(...) No, LEGO would just gives us a few silly words that only work in a few situations and expect us to create meaningful conversations with those words ;) Chris (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

(...) I'm a stubborn old goat, sometimes. Found the cite. --> You can have whatever opinions you want. It ain't my place (or anyone else's) to say otherwise.

Ok, I've been rather busy as of late, so back to the debate... :) (...) Ok. So we agree now? That our definitions of 'prove' differ? Right? (...) Aha!, would say I, are not testimonials subject to personal feelings or prejudices? Can you fully trust (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
(...) Bad, methinks, for us LUGNETers. I think that the level of freedom and topic range would be more exposed to censor. I don't think that LUGNET should EVER be sold, and I'm willing to put my money forth just to keep it the way it is. LUGNET is (...)

  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
(...) Well, one things for sure- If Lugnet bought TLC, we'd never again wonder what theme a given sub-theme was in, as the new nesting logos would clearly tell us where it belonged. eric (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

No, it means that they'd put Flash all over the site, and menus that loaded REAAAALLL slow, and generally muck up a perfectly good setup.

  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
(...) Hmm. This would mean that there would be a large number of newsgroups, each specially designed for a specific purpose. Wait, we've already got that. Steve (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Kevin Zwicker wrote in message ... (...) Just to qualify this: LUGNET is the centre of the ADULT Lego community on the Web.

  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
(...) Yes but T&S would have to want to sell it. (...) knight. This is an interesting point. I wonder how much LUGNET is worth to TLC. I expect it increases sales in a small way - I wonder by how much though? Anyone any idea/willing to guess? (...)

(...) They could send us plane tickets along with the wedding invites to LLC. ;^) I think TLC would likely "Juniorize" the place. *shudder* ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
(...) I would say Woo Hoo! for Todd and Suzanne!!! Then ask for a loan ;-). Hypothetically its a topic for discussion but realistically I doubt it would happen. The bad of course would be that LEGO would undoubtedly monitor, and censor, content so (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
 
  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?

If there were any significant changes in design or policy, I'd probably regress to RTL, and wait for some AFOL with the time and resources to start up LUANET (or something). (...)

  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
(...) The first thing I would do is find a way to guilt them into picking up bar tabs from now on.

  Re: What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
Why would they bother - it probably serves their purposes right now (remember TLC has given funds to LUGNET). If it were to become part of Lego.com, Lego would either have to moderate some of the views spouted here (about Lego and other matters), or (...)

  What would happen if ... TLC bought Lugnet ?
 
Hello, **Warning: Hypothetical situation only!** I was speaking with a friend last night and we were wondering what would happen if TLC bought the rights to Lugnet? Given: 1. The recurring examples of TLC staff refering customers to Lugnet, 2. TLC (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
