I think this is just as bad as people using BrickShelf to upload pictures
for Ebay.

I'm not complaining about the photos of Bionicle Mocs.  These constantly
flood the recent updates as well but at least they pertain more to Lego and
building.

These Avatar images (etc..) seem to pertain to a website called
BionicleZone. Could the creators of these images please keep these where
they belong and off BrickShelf.

And who are you to even think about suggesting this? Are you an admin of
brickshelf?

I realize that Bionicle is just a fad and these images will probably
dissapear in 4 months (at least until the new wave comes out)  but I can't
wait that long.

Whaa, whaa, whaa... Would you like some cheese to go with that whine? And
this is comming from a person who is selling bionicle masks in his brickbay
shop... tsk tsk tsk!
I am getting very tired of people like you - and what I mean is the type of
person who thinks to themself "I do not like this - so lets ban it and get
rid of it form where I go!" and do not have the maturity to think to
themself "You know, I do not like this, so let me just ignore it."
How are these updates effecting you? Other than having to look at the folder
icon and click 'next' one or two more times? Just because you do not like
it, just because you do not see the point does not mean others do, and does
not give you the right to try to ban them from a sitw you really have
nothing to do with. You do not pay for brickshelf, you have no admin duties
there - so why are you calling for the banishment of them?

Bionicle is made by Lego, brickshelf is for lego items, so to make it simple...
Bionicle = Lego
Brickshelf = Lego
so
Bionicle = Brickshelf

I can fully understand that you do not like Bionicle, but you have to
understand that not everybody shares in your view. And for you to come here
and whine that you are "very tired of checking out the BrickShelf recent
updates page to see it flooded with these annoying pixelated images." shows
me you lack the maturity aand the ability to overlook them.

It seems more and more people are doing this here on Lugnet - 'I do not like
this, so lets ban it!' I mean get real, just let it go people.

You know what personally bugs me - people who open a brickbay shop and sit
there thinking 'I want my store name to start with an 'A' so it will be on
the top of the brickbay list - but not look like I am trying to get it to
the top of the list.'

my 2 cents.
And no, I am not one of the people who have posted any of these images. I
just do not like petty whiners.

'xed to debate
This is one of the most opinionated things I've ever posted to Lugnet but
this issue is really bothering me and I haven't noticed any other posts
about it. I apologize if this has been addressed.
