Anybody know why there has been so many spam messages/scams on the forum the
past few months? It’s getting kinda irritating….

So I'm currently building a large map about 200 by 300 studs in size and
stud.io always freezes when I move, copy or add pieces. I've read that putting
the 0,0 coordinates into sight when building should resolve the freezing and
crashing, but at the moment it freezes regardless of what I do and eventually
crashes.
There has to be something that's being calculated or something in the background
that causes the program to overload, but I don't know how I could prevent
this from happening. I've tried 30 and 60 fps options, colission off, but
both didn't help.

Does anyone have had similar experiences or ideas how to fix this?

I've been a Lego addict for about the last 20 years of my adult life. It
seemed like now was a good time to get my first ever puppy. What could possibly
go wrong I thought. In the last week I have learned that not all of my Lego
are as secure as I thought. Expecting a response from my puppy I have said countless
times "what are you chewing on".

Prices for my all my policies have risen dramatically:

Business: Up 40% (The Hartford, through an independent agent) They will be getting
a call tomorrow.

Home: Up 45% (USAA)

Auto: Up 28% (USAA)

Is anyone else seeing these types of increases?

Come on you reds !

So happy to see my non league football team Kidderminster Harriers return to
the top division just below the major leagues. (minutes ago ).

Made my year, it’s not been good so far.

Only had a very outside chance of the play offs, had to win all remaining 6 games,
did that.

Qualified for play offs and faced three away games to get promoted, won all three
and we’re there.

⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️

🍾🥂 🍻 🍾🥂 🍻 🍾🥂 🍻

Mark does it again

I really love his comic. I really wish Bricklink wasn't such a rich field
for such satire fodder.

Just wasted two hours trying to get a firestick to work, never had one before.


Tried following instructions and loads of online trouble shooting methods but
cannot get anything but “ check connection, no or weak signal “.

All three ports give same result.

Just adds to my reluctance to add technology as nothing seems to work how it
should, clearly I just don’t understand it.

There always seems to be something else I should be doing that just isn’t mentioned
in the instructions as if I should already know.

I took my time to report an error through the Report a bug or technical issue
link

https://www.bricklink.com/helpDesk.asp?helpDeskID=114

and only after one day I got this back.


  Thank you for contacting us.

  For all API-related questions and suggestions, please contact our API Department at apisupport@bricklink.com.


They could not even forward it themselves and then let me know that I needed
to report issues there!

Ugh! I guess I am going to start calling them the less than helpful desk again.

Hi gang!

This set :

 
Set No: 40504  Name: A Minifigure Tribute
* 
40504-1 (Inv) A Minifigure Tribute
1041 Parts, 2023
Sets: LEGO Brand: LEGO House

Contains a rather nice map on a stickersheet

 
Part No: 40504stk01  Name: Sticker Sheet for Set 40504 - (10102738/6433128)
* 
40504stk01 Sticker Sheet for Set 40504 - (10102738/6433128)
Parts: Sticker Sheet

I would very much like a high resolution scan of this, please

My plan is to photoshop/move the "x marks the spot" all the way up to
the nose of Jutland where I live. Then upsize it (as much as the resolution permits),
get it professionally printed, framed and hang it on my wall

This set is not likely to ever get parted out and I don't feel like paying
150-200EUR for a stickersheet. For that amount of money I could just go to Billund
and buy the set

Thank you in advance

Cheers,

Ole

How do I cause BrickStore to load my saved column layout by default?

Every time I open the program I have to load my saved layout.

Purchased an minifig for about 12SGD from this local seller (Tuahbui) about 2
years ago.

He sent the wrong item and I informed him about it. Initially he accept that
it is his fault. However, he decided to change his words after I told him to
collect it back or refund the return shipping fees.

Things escalated to PayPal. And PayPal decided to do a refund to me. Yet this
seller has been sending harassments mails for the past 2 years or so. Words which
are demeaning and highly offensive. Calling me names and label me as a scammer.

The details were sent to the admin here but nothing was done. The stop-list doesnt
work too.

How do I go about it?

Am about to file a defamation suit soon.
