languages Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Ok i will look for the button and MEGABLOCKS STINK
Wolf04 Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 OK, we get the point! Jeez! This thread should be locked up and thrown away. It's useless and people just spam here.
sam89 Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 I think it depends. It's OK if you're going to add something to the conversation, and give reasons why you do or don't like Mega Bloks.
Wolf04 Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Yes it must be locked. By bashing how bad Megabloks are, we are only lowering ourselves to the Megablok level. We must act professionally and ignore the lower class.
snefroe Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 i also can't see any point to this. we all agree that lego is, give and take, a better product than the others. so there is no real discussion, is there? in fact, there's so little debate that we're even asking the question why we're having a debate at all... Eventually, by lack of substance you end up bashing another company, people and products and I can't really see the use in that. and it's not a good thing for the image of Eurobricks either... I think the essence about a forum here is that we're all open to what every individual thinks and says, without lowering ourselves to insults, bashing,... only then a site like this can work. let's close it down, folks...
jonfett Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Ok, I think everybody has made their point. **LOCKED** *satis* Jon. EDIT by ApophisV: Eh, I wanted to do this... :P
ApophisV Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 Okay folks... I think it's really the time to close a topic when several people are requesting it. Nonetheless some last words (what I think about it): It shouldn't be any problem to make fun about Megabloks in the way we did (e.g. letting the word filter replace all bad words with the term "megablok"). But what we've seen here was only some "Damn Megabloks, it's all bad!" which really is wether funny nor realistic. Surely Megabloks are lacking the quality of the original and so on, but on the otherhand they're also cheaper. I think many people of the whole AFOL community (and I mean the WHOLE community) are judging other brands without of ever having some bricks of them in their own hands just to have some "enemy" they can talk about... So what does I want to say?!? It's just that please talk either in a funny way or in a realistic way about them, okay? Make non-serious fun of Megabloks or otherwise discuss their sets / parts / quality / whatever seriously!
Jipay Posted March 5, 2005 Posted March 5, 2005 I love those admins-only topic where nobody else can reply :P Well I saw some megablock on display at my ToyRus and I'll never buy those : the pieces were not fitting well together. But as apo said, on the other hand they are cheap. Maybe lego could consider Megablock as an opportunity : people start o buy megablock to their kids because they are cheap and then move on to lego because the quality is much better *satis*
