Over the years, I feel it's become less fascinating.
Back in the day I relied on the promos to tell me when things came out. Heck, I didn't know about the Bohrok until I saw them on a shelf in a toy store. I truly wondered what they did and what they were. From the back of the package it looked like they had two masks even (faceplate and Krana). I didn't know how they worked until I saw a commercial.
Even the story held some mystery.
Now I'm a member on several BIONICLE sites and I know almost everything, and I know about sets long before they are released. I am also much older, so I'm able to comprehend more.
But most of the loss can be attributed to stuff like BS01, BZP, and Brickshelf. Any potential surprises are made publicly viewable for thousands before anyone has a chance to find out.
In order to preserve BIONICLE's mystic feel, steps must be taken.
It's simple: kill the Batman.
…
Wait, no that's not it.
In order to preserve the magic, we must destroy the internet.
This is brought about by those threads about "What's the most noobish thing you've heard?" I'm sick of it. You can't honestly expect everyone on the face of the earth to know everything there is to know about BIONICLE.

I have a problem here. Two actually. Because of convention circuits, I now have two things: my choice of personal custom member title, and a six-month Premier Membership.
I can't think of a title I want at the moment.
I don't need the Premier Membership.
(Try to guess where this is going.)
So yeah, I'm open to suggestions. Best suggestion (as judged by me) from a non-Premier Member gets six months of not having to pay for a blog and stuff. Whether I use any of the suggestions or not depends on how clever you all are, but the best (non-PM) one still wins the prize.
Rules: 1. don't cheat 2. don't make my job harder if you win 3. entry period ends Wednesday Dec. 17 at 11:59:59PM East coast US time (any entries after this won't be counted)
Rules are rules. Quit griping about them. I'm sure you can survive without texting someone every minute. Swearing every three words does not make you any of the following: "cool", funny, mature, older, smart, or popular. SHUT UP I'M TRYING TO LISTEN
This can be applied to about half my school. Maybe more.
