(...) A little late on the reply here (missed this post), but here goes anyway: I don't see them as bad per se, it's just that they seem to be replacing LUGNET, because people only have so much time to devote to LEGO (what is wrong with these (...)

(...) While I am also disappointed with the reduced interraction on LUGNET, I don't see other boards as bad, even if they aren't superior in features.

(...) Yeah, but I think that the analogy is flawed. The horseless carriage is FAR superior to what it replaced; other boards may have a nice feature here and there, but they are not VASTLY superior to LUGNET. I think that there is great value in (...)
