Hapori Tohu Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 It's been a while, but now you can access the BIONICLE website once more by entering BIONICLE.com in your address bar - even BIONICLEstory.com works again! Less typing for everyone and less awkward directing people to LEGO.com/BIONICLE sound like a good thing to me. -- Adrian View the full article 3 Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
END Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Good to hear. When the site first came up I typed "bionicle.com" and got redirected to the LEGO home page. Yay for less typing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 1st Shadow Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 You sure? Because both of those redirect me straight to lego.com/bionicle.

Lenny7092 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 You sure? Because both of those redirect me straight to lego.com/bionicle. Same here. In fact, nothing's new or changed yet. Quote I like Lego, Bionicle, and Hero Factory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I'm also sent to that page when I click on either of those links. But still, I wonder why the Bioniclestory link is doing that. Does anyone else think Lego could bring back that site a part from the Bionicle.com one for other reasons? Like releasing serials again or something like that? Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 You sure? Because both of those redirect me straight to lego.com/bionicle. That's the point. They used to redirect to the LEGO.com homepage. Now they redirect to the new BIONICLE page, like they should. 2 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to redirect to the LEGO.com homepage. Now they redirect to the new BIONICLE page, like they should. So, they fixed a link? That's it? Yes, that's it. That's why this story is just a blurb and not an entire story with Kanohi Nuva icon and all that. Just thought you'd like to know it. 1 Quote - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to redirect to the LEGO.com homepage. Now they redirect to the new BIONICLE page, like they should. So, they fixed a link? That's it? It's pretty significant to a lot of people who are already accustomed to typing in BIONICLE.com rather than LEGO.com/bionicle and for a while were frustrated not to arrive at the correct page. The BIONICLE.com address has always been a redirect, it's just what address it's redirected TO that has changed over the years. Admittedly, the news article could have been a bit clearer about what specifically had changed (i.e. that both those shortened web addresses had previously gone to the LEGO homepage, and now they go directly to the new BIONICLE website). 1 Quote Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Yes! Bionicle.com is much preferable to lego.com/bionicle. Also, curious how bioniclestory.com works too. -NotS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyori Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I'm going to guess bioniclestory.com could be where the web series will air (maybe in addition to the serials)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatanui Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I'm going to guess bioniclestory.com could be where the web series will air (maybe in addition to the serials)?I doubt it. I just guess they thought it would be a waste not to use that domain, since they already own it anyway. Even if they don't actively promote that domain anywhere, that's free traffic you get. 1 Quote - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks!

Click Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I totally typed in Bionicle.com a few days ago without realizing it shouldn't work and it went right to the site, where I proceeded as usual.

You mean that those web serials will be gone forever?! There are no plans to continue the serials or to bring them back in any way, at least as far as we have been told. That would be quite counterproductive, actually. You don't want all the new fans to be confused by those old serials without any relation to the new story.

Mr. Cup of Fail Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 (edited) Ya, this is great for less typing and less clicking. It's good to have it BIONICLE.com again but will BIONICLEstory.com take you to BIONICLE.com for now on or somewhere else later on?
