  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
(...) I'm a professional Software Engineer with 3 years of PHP and mysql experience, were I to log in and discover poorly commented, badly structured, inefficent code I don't think I'd laugh, I think I'd fix it. As a community, I think you are (...) (21 years ago, 17-Feb-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, lugnet.publish, lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.trains)

(...) Icky. What about when amatures come in and write code that is... laughable... at best. Then you have a website made of mangled, chaotic code that definetly does not help the community at all. Poor commenting, bad structure, inefficent (...) (21 years ago, 16-Feb-04, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, lugnet.general, lugnet.lego, lugnet.publish, lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.trains)
 
  2004 American International Toy Fair Pictures on FBTB
 
For those who aren't aware, FBTB is covering the Toy Fair in New York and pictures of new 2004 sets are starting to appear there. So far there are Duplo, Quatro, Dora, Creator, Designer (mecha!), and Technic pictures on there. I'm expecting Star (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
Hello! (...) Well, most AFOLs already have been LEGO fans as kids and - after a periode of neglecting the brick, the so called 'dark ages' - found back to their old love. That means: For the purpose of growing hard core LEGO fans it's necassary to (...)

Is there going to be a controlling body (say, for example, of 9 people) who are going to make all the decisions (...)

[ -> .org ] (...) So what would be available to not-logged-in users? Greatest common factor?

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
(...) My understanding is that LEGO would like to have a site that they can feel comfortable sending traffic (kids and adults), but which they don't control and aren't responsible for. This site (LEGOFan) could include content (such as offsite (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
(...) Perhaps it is time to have another revolution. After all, LUGNET was at least partly founded as a response to user's dissatisfaction with some problems inherent in r.t.l (one of them , ironically, being that r.t.l was too open a system which (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.
 
I really don't have a problem with the community trying to set up a web-site and trying to get the community to come together. I agree (with Terry) that saying that a certain site will be the one-stop shop is insulting. The one point I'd like to (...)

(...) 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 (...)

  Re: LEGOFan.net - central community run hub for all areas of the LEGO community.

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 (...)
