Simple--they can't.  As a multi-naitonal and multi million dollar business, I
wouldn't take an AFOL community seriously if what's posted here on LUGNET is any
indication as to the maturity of said group.

I've stated before--bad things happen when good people keep their mouths shut
whilst the vocal minority yip away.



You know, I didn't think of that, and it's a really good point Dave.  A lot of
opportunities are going to disappear when Jake and/or Lego finally get fed up
with us.

OK, i haven't even made it through this thread, and I'm

I'm....

I'm something....

mad, bored, angry, lethargic....

all of the above.

I was NOT going to say this in public.... but now I will.

WE ~HAVE~ JUMPED THE SHARK!!!!

PERIOD!

END OF SENTENCE!!!

if anyone has a way of bringing back the good ol days let me know, but
the future as i see it is simple,


Either LUGNET will die a slow "ratings" death, and live on as a
reference to those future AFOL's

OR

the next generation of AFOL's will by some freak of nature return
LUGNET to some semblance of its former glory.

We can not change anything.  Not only is the glass half full, i want to
know who drank my water!!!

My forecast,  the "core" of LUGNET, and lurkers will get bored and
leave.  that will just leave the bitcher's and whiners.  TODD will get
sick of it, and close it down.  I mean thats why he left USENET to start
this place right?  why in the name of all that is stuff crust cheese,
would he WANT to keep this place alive?

Sorry guys.

just how i see it.
