How Many?

Recommended Posts

Pretty much anyone I know is aware I've had a thing for Bionicle for a long time (I did a large explanatory essay about Bionicle in 10th grade and I often read the books back in high school). I don't discuss my online life with a number of friends, however, so BZP doesn't usually come up with most of my friends in real life. I would say at least 20 friends don't know about my frequency and contributions here on BZPower though.-Ced

BZP: Most. I might mention it in passing, but conversation almost never steers in the appropriate direction for such namedropping. So I doubt many people around me, if any, know of it.BIONICLE: Anyone who looks in my room (at home, and I try to keep it going in my dorm room) would probably realize I'm at least a LEGO fan, and my closest friends are very much aware of how obsessed I am.

Ahaha... haha...eh.Having made bad experiences with talking to someone about Bionicle in the past, I usually keep it to myself. So I think there's only 1 person in my friend circle who knows about it. Some others whom I've known for several years know, too, but they're not really friends... let's say I kinda have a reputation for "drawing those robot characters". But it's not as though anyone really cared.And BZPower? No. None of my IRL friends are even remotely interested in Lego, so why should I bother and tell them about this? :/... don't judge mee :cry:

Certainly I'd say 90% of my friends know of my Lego interests. Only like 2 or 3 know of any BIONICLE related specifics. I have heard those who don't know mention BIONICLE though in Lego conversations, in the early years for my generation, it really was the top of the pile for toys.

None. Hardly any of them even know I write at all, much less fanfiction for a Lego sub-category. I doubt they know what 'Bionicle' is.

Either all of them know or I've never told them because it never seemed all that important.

On the day the wall came down / They threw the locks onto the ground

And with glasses high / We raised a cry / For freedom had arrived

 

On the day the wall came down / The ship of fools had finally run aground

Promises lit up the night / Like paper doves in flight

 

I dreamed you had left my side / No warmth, not even pride remained

And even though you needed me / It was clear that I could not do a thing for you

 

Now life devalues day by day / As friends and neighbors turn away

And there's a change that even with regret / Cannot be undone

 

Now frontiers shift like desert sands / While nations wash their bloodied hands

Of loyalty, of history / In shades of grey

 

I woke to the sound of drums / The music played, the morning sun streamed in

I turned and I looked at you / And all but the bitter residues slipped away

 

slipped away...

Nobody that I know these days knows about BZP- if I told them, I'd never hear the end of it, and unfortunately there would go any chance I have (however slim at this point =P) of fitting it.-ibrow
As much of a nonconformist as I am, that's kinda my reasoning too. :P More than that, it's just something I like to keep to myself. No need to share it, you know?

The majority of my friends don't know that I'm a Bionicle fan or that I visit BZP. My friends who happen to like Bionicle as well know, though.

Everyone knows I'm a BIONICLE fanatic. :POn the other hand, I think about three of my friends ever knew I was on BZP, and I wouldn't be surprised if all of them had forgotten by now.~

Truth be known I've only told one friend that I'm a member on BZP but I never mention it by name. So only one person vaguely knows I on here. Bionicle on the other hand I think no knew I was into Bionicle post elementary school. So only my family and a couple of friends know I'm into Bionicle.

No one outside of my family knows I like BZPower and BIONICLE. It's just something I never bring up in conversations with people I know.-TNTOS-

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt

Well, considering a good portion of my friends wouldn't really care; I'd say few people know about my hobby for Bionicle (especially since the series ended and I haven't been buying HF sets and instead have been collecting minifigure sets here and there) and even fewer know about BZPower. My parents know, my brothers are also members of this site, but outside of that there's really nobody who knows my deep, dark and secret plots to start a civil war on a random website dedicated to a discontinued toy line. Those poor, innocent fools, not knowing that they are in the presence of an evil cool dude. XP

I don't think any of my friends know about BZPower. However, they do know I'm a sculptor/artist, and I have built one bionicle creation for someone. Doubt anyone knew what it was made of though :PHowever if anyone has ever been to my living space, they know that I have to be by the mountain of pieces.
