| (...) YES. Thank you, Jake. I have a problem with being too subtle, so I'll be more blunt: Lugnet is targeted to a particular audience, an adult audience. This is _not_ the ONLY audience interested in LEGO. For those whose online LEGO experience (...)

| (...) I mean it is insulting to see someone trying to replace a website by using its ressources to publicize itself. I see this as insulting to Lugnet. To us, I see it as an insult that some people would want to create a website and call it the (...)

Those types of messages *do* need to be moderated if you are operating in a sphere (...)

| (...) I don't think you should expect LEGOFan.net to lower the number of LEGO fan community sites. If we manage to release some easy to use software for setting up a community site, it will probably result in an increasing number of local LEGO fan (...)

And hopefully we can find a better solution than just depending on a LEGO sponsorship. We have already (...)

| (...) There are a couple of reasons that there isn't more "corporate" presence on LUGNET. First and most important, the owners of the site have by and large declined it. Like you mentioned, the reason for this was to stay independent, and as far as (...)

Who knows if such a site would even allow criticism of (...)

| (...) To spell out the concern directly: it seems like this new site will either add yet one more new place to look, or else kill off one or more existing ones. Or -- and this seems unfortunately possible -- *both*. But as I said elsewhere, that's (...)

I don't know the details -- and may even be completely wrong, but it's my (...)
