I'm surprised that as frequent of a user you are you took twice as long to
get to the point I got too. The best way to deal with trolls is to not feed them
(though I do fully understand this snack I'm writing to you will be eaten
readily)

Until we get actual moderators that have the ability to police bad behavior the
ignore button and pity are our only tools


Trolls are misunderstood creatures. It’s just not acceptable to use their identity
in a derogatory manner. It’s racist or something? Like, OMG

Sorry, just an attempt at humor

As to the name calling “troll” I don’t mind that you do so, Crystal. Nor did
I mind when Sylvain replied to my posted suggestion, by opening-up with the signature
Sylvain Slam...

In my opening statement
"an idea that briefly visited my headspace some time ago"

Sylvain’s opening statement in reply:
"No, no, you tempter, I won’t ask if it felt alone in there!"


You may have noticed (that is if you haven’t overly used the ignore feature)
that all the others that posted their honest thoughts and critics, received only
honest, positive replies, or no reply from me. I try to be positive and build
others up, but some simply need a spanking (not in the way you're thinking,
Sylvain! I like you, but not in that way )

I don’t mind the banter, and I still enjoy reading your inputs. I am sorry you’ve
been tamed here in the forum, I miss the old Crystal. The one that expressed
her strong unabashed opinions. Can I please say hello to her again. Can she come
out and play?

To those that have no problem using the ignore feature, I would encourage it
be used on my profile. For a self-serving reason, though: it's just one less
sourpuss I'll have to deal with in my posts, is the way I've seen it
for some time, now.

I agree. But in all fairness we can't ignore the question in the back of
our minds: When is this guy finally going to buy some more LEGO?

My wallet has the reverse question

Though getting around 700€ of LEGO for around 15€ thanks to coupons and destocking
made us both quite happy a couple months ago


Wow! Then my question changes... Why is this guy not selling any LEGO?


What, with all the problems you sellers continuously whine about on the forum?


Besides, MY precious, MINE!

You're here discussing its problems out of your own free will, who's
silly now?

Also for what it's worth I took many years to hit 30 ish FB. I was living
in an apartment and didn't have room to build anything. It isn't a user
value system.

  That would be something! We usually have around 100 pounds of un-inventoried
parts on our sorting table but, have little idea what people want to buy! So
we just randomly add as we see fit.

Yet another good point.

Great input, Rachel. Thanks!
