Ooh, I'd really rather not see such venting in .general. Keep it in
.dear-lego (and I'd actually like to see separate groups .dear-lego.vent
and .dear-lego.constructive (for constructive criticism or suggestions).
I'd really like to see the traffic volume in .general drop dramatically.
It's getting hard to find interesting stuff there (of course we're
getting swamped by the usual new sets discussion - unfortunately, I
think the lugnet.year groups came a bit too late for this year, for next
year [and for discussion of new stuff which comes out mid-year], I'd
really like to see strong encouragement to keep the discussion mostly in
the lugnet.year groups).
