Woo-Hoo! With the designer sets I got a few weeks back, my collection has finally topped the 60,000 piece mark (not including BrickLink purchases)! I'm so happy. :) (URL) everywhere are breaking open the champagne... -Hendo (22 years ago, 11-Apr-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people)

(...) Carefull! That's how I got started with them too. Now my collection has exploded into almost every set of the series ;-) But does that make me part of the LEGO community? Probably. But more so does the fact that I _say_ I am part of it. Think (...) (22 years ago, 11-Apr-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.fun.community)

(...) LOL - oh what a dork I am! I just tried raising that question in a reply earlier in your post here, without realizing you raised it yourself a few lines down. Glad I didn't post it and make a fool out of myself :^) [1] Anyways... I've seen (...) (22 years ago, 11-Apr-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.fun.community)

(...) Hey Ken - Thanks for posting this. I happened across your post first, then Matt's. I was very close to posting a reply I had written to his post, but didn't want to taint the thread with something negative. I think the ideas put forth in this (...)

(...) I have pondered this sort of topic a bit. I have intentionally only read one post here so as not to color my thoughts up front. Only a couple of small points frist on the LEGO 'community.' It's hard to say 'what' that is. I generally consider (...) (22 years ago, 11-Apr-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.fun.community)

(...) Isn't pondering the unaswerables pretty much what philosphy is generally about? You seemed to be interested in writing a lot in response to a question you didn't seem to deem worthy of answering. You seem to want to disagree with this post on (...)

(...) I don't disagree, but being a member of 'The friendliest place on the internet', I like the idea that people 'into Lego' are automatically included just because they are intrinsically valued as people to begin with. Hmm...here's a (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.fun.community)

(...) My personal feeling is that the "LEGO community" doesn't really exist. That is to say there isn't a singular entity that can qualify to classify the group that might make up this definition. But rather, in my mind what you might really be (...) (22 years ago, 10-Apr-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.people, lugnet.fun.community)
