Thanks Bruce,
I visit LUGNet to see what the latest and greatest is in the Lego Block Building
World. I've seen MOCs of religious, sexual and Holocaust themes. Do I come here
to discuss religion, sex or genocide? No. I come here for the MOCs - period.
Style, technique and new part or color combinatioins are what I'm looking for. I
could care less what a person's religious affiliation is or what their sexual
preference is (or whether or not they even have a preference). Heck, show me an
innovative MOC of a Nazi screwing a donkey in a cathedral and I'll check it out
just because it's something new. But if it's not related to the brick, find
another forum.
