The how-to articles are very helpful and there are fun little community projects like C-C Roleplay and C-C Picture Captioning.

.space, I feel, doesn’t have that type of community. There are alot of respected builders here (who build awesome MOCs, BTW) and it’s kind of hard for a new builder to get in.

I think it would be great to have a space website based on the structure of Classic-Castle.com.

I have to argue* against you on your point about new builders not being able to work their way into the community. I think the members here are incredibly welcoming. As soon as I started getting my stuff posted here (owe you some personal thanks for that, Nathan) several jumped right in to make me feel at home. I’m happy to call many of them my friends, and finally had an opportunity to meet a lot of them in person this past weekend at PDX.

One of those people was Lenny Hoffman, a man involved in both Castle and Space. Seeing him at PDX and his passion for both themes made me want to check out Classic Castle. I’ll be browsing it when I get the chance. I’m sure it’s every bit as friendly as you say.

(...) Maybe I was being a bit extreme, but I do think some good MOCs in the past made by unknown people have gone largely ignored in favor of space guru's creation. However, this has changed in the last few months. I've seen some newbies make a (...) (21 years ago, 17-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
