read many new posts about new MOC's. in space, the main model to build is a
spaceship, be it fighter, carrier, destroyer, etc, and there are dozens of
examples of these on brickshelf. why are pirate fans not posting as many
creations? (besides that the spacers have more people) are we not as creative? i
think not. so, what makes us different from them? are ships just more difficult
to build good examples of? are they more time consuming? what is it, and why do
we not have as many creations floating around?

okay, tirade over. :-)

There's also the not-so-negligible oversight that Brickshelf doesn't even have a
checkbox for Pirate photos/folders/MOCs !! (Star Wars fans don't have one
either, but they just use Space)
