There is currently a large discussion of the LEGO ambassadors on the LAN (LEGO
Ambassador Network). Common agreement is that all this was predictable, and BL
made serious stupid mistakes here.
As ambassadors, they bring feedback from their groups and websites, sometimes
hundreds and thousands of people, and boy, it does not look good.
One issue is that many people don't want to community of this '90s looking
and feeling board where people don't know if anybody reads the posts at all...
So, whoever has something to say here, please talk to Tanja about the discussion
on LAN.
