I have only been a member for a couple of years. I voted no even though IMHO the poll is flawed. I am fascinated by some of the old threads but I am not young enough (under 18) to be excited by them I guess.

I feel most threads that were dead during the entire fantasy castle line would likely have some new perspective or opinions on the topic by now. TLG has made huge strides over the last few years. It is also a bit interesting to see what people were thinking back then. I guess I better start reading older threads more regularly. I promise not to post anything new in them...
I do believe the TOS should be followed as they have served this site well over the years. These are the terms which we agreed to when we joined this site. You would think that there would be more knightly and honorable behavior at a site like this.
I agree with Athos and feel bad for newer members. It is their enthusiasm about discussing castle lego that is getting them into trouble. They seem to be in a no win situation. I personally find the enthusiasm refreshing.Athos wrote:While the old-timers may have discussed an issue to death and have no desire to rehash the matter, new people have opinions and want to join in. If they start a new thread about the issue some of the wanna-be-mods will be all over them about how they're duplicating threads. But if they go back to that old thread people are all over them about resurrecting dead threads.
Bringing up old topics to raise the number of posts you make is silly. If that is a new members motive I would like you to know this, you don't get respect by the number of posts in your profile... It is how many people you offend that gets you points...
