We will always be BZPower, and if BIONICLE were to come back, which would probably be a few decades from now, there would always be room for discussion of it here.

This. Even when Hapori Tohu was absent from the forums, their aesthetic blew the very outdated main page out of the water. I spend as much time in the forums section as possible nowadays, and cringe when I have to go back to the frontpage to read a news article. The new aesthetic is great, especially now that Tohu's here, and I'm hoping the frontpage is next on the to-do list.

Chols Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 And that's why the banner says "LEGO", and even if BIONICLE came back in twenty years, if we are still around (and I'd like to believe we would be!), we would still stay as a general LEGO forum. So let's all talk about the banner some more, and not the same, rehashed, concluded argument the site has had since BIONICLE was canceled.I would normally say that BZPower being around for 20 years is unlikely, but if you really are shifting towards being a general Lego community (with of course a particular focus on constraction, which I don't see disappearing from this community), then it's quite possible BZP's longevity will improve.

That made me happy.Haha, yes, we have a real list that we are actually trying to make our way through. It's large, and the things on it aren't simple, matter-of-fact changes. Like the skin, which is our current priority. Which is why we made a new header, because the rest of the stuff is a lot more work than the header, and I had the time to make it, so why not, right? Otherwise, I think that the order I posted them in is basically the order as we are looking at the list now, though that is subject to change if a break-through is made on something else while we're doing stuff.Also, convention stuff. Also on the list, and when it gets closer to convention season stuff will, unfortunately, slow down a bit on the progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's my thoughts: If a person tells the truth and says, " I always lie," Is he lying? Or is he telling the truth? And what has a mouth, but no head, and a body, but no torso? Do caterpillars like to tend to supporting colum of stone's every need? Or is that name misleading by nature? Speaking of nature, why are the children of animals called offspring? don't many young beasts come alive in spring, and thus, should be called onspring? Heeeeeeyy.....
