I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be a burden to you all. That’s not my business. I don’t want to scare or fool anyone. I should like to help everyone - if possible - Jew, Gentile - black minifig - white. We all want to help one another. LEGO Minifigs are like that. We want to live by each other’s creativity - not by each other’s misery. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this site, there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and creative, but we have lost the way. Removal of the MB's has poisoned our souls, has barricaded the website with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and tearshed.
We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Servers that gave abundance in textual sets has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our creative cleverness, hard and unkind. We type too much and build too little. More than text and words we need plastic. More than literary cleverness we need creative kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, the galleries will be violent and all will be lost.... The aeroplane and the radio sets have brought us closer together. The very nature of these sets cries out for the goodness in all minifigs - cries out for universal legohood - for the unity of us all.
Even now my post is reaching millions throughout this site - millions of despairing minifigures - victims of a removal of the MB's that made us minifigs depressed and scared. To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of the MB's - the bitterness of minifigs who fear the way of lego progress. The hate of those minifigures will pass, and old MB's die, and the power it took from the minifigs will return to the minifigs. And so long as the MB's rest peacefully, lego creativity and liberty will never perish.
Builders! don’t give yourselves to these old MB's - Boards that despise you - Enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! That drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as bully fodder! Don’t give yourselves to this unnatural feature - this machine thing, with a machine mind and a machine heart! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are minifigures! You have the love of lego in your hearts! You don’t hate! Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the uncreative! Builders! Don’t type for dullness! Build for creativity! In the 17th Chapter of St Brick it is written: “the Kingdom of Lego is within Minifigs” - not one minifigure nor a group of minifigs, but in all minifigures! In you! You, the people have the power - the power to create machines! The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this website beautiful and free, to make this website a wonderful adventure!
Then - in the name of legocracy - let us use that power - let us all unite! Let us build for a new lego world - a decent world that will give minifigs a chance to create - that will give youth a creative future and old age a sense of creative security. By the promise of these things, the MB's had risen to power, but it lies - It doesn't fulfill that promise! It never will! The MB's had freed themselves, but it enslaved us all! Now let us build to fulfil that promise! Let us build for a world of reason, a world where lego science and progress and creativity will lead to all minifig’s happiness!
Builders! in the name of legocracy, let us all unite!
(I decided to improve the old speech, its mostly the same except for a few lines. )
I’m sorry, but I don’t want to be such a troublemaker. That’s not my business. I don’t want to vandalize this site for anyone. I should like to help everyone - if possible - Jew, Gentile - black minifigure - white. We all want to help one another. LEGO minifigures beings are like that. We want to live by each other’s happiness And creativeness - not by each other’s misery and dullness. We don’t want to hate and despise one another. In this world there is room for everyone. And the good eternal boards are rich and can provide for every-figure. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. The old MB Greed has poisoned minifig's souls, has barricaded the old timers with hate, has goose-stepped us all into misery and brickshed.
We have developed speed, RP's and fanfics, but we have shut ourselves in. The old Servers that gave abundance in our old boards has left us in want. Our fandom's knowledge has made us cynical. Our literary cleverness, hard and unkind. We think and act too much and feel and react too little. More than machinery we need lego-manity. More than building cleverness we need creative kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities in out boards, life in the lego eternal boards will be violent and all will be lost.... The aeroplane and the radio lego sets have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventive sets cries out for the goodness in minifigures - cries out for universal minifig-hood - for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the site - millions of despairing LEGO men, women, and little children - victims of a removed system that makes us LEGO minifigures torture and imprison innocent people.
To those who can hear me, I say - do not despair. The old elden misery that is now upon us is but the passing of the old MB's - the bitterness of minifgs who fear the way of LEGO's progress. The hate of those Minifigures will pass, and the old dictatives we used to follow, die, and the power they took from the us will return to the us, the LEGO people. And so long as the old dictatives die, our LEGO liberty will never perish. ..... Soldiers, Writers, and Builders! don’t give yourselves to brute memories - memories that despise you - enslave you - that regimented your lives back then - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! That drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder for failure!
Don’t give yourselves to these unnatural ideals - machine ideals with machine concepts and machine hearts behind them! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are minifigures! You have the love of LEGO humanity in your hearts! You don’t hate! Only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural and the uncreative! Soldiers, writers, actors and builders! Don’t fight for an old system! Fight for new Eternal liberty! In the 17th Chapter of St. Brick it is written: “the Kingdom of LEGO is within Minifigures” - not one minifig nor a group of minifigures, but in all minifigures! In you! You, the minifigures have the power - the power to create machines. The power to create happiness. The power to tell stories. The power to act. The power to create this new home for us! You, the people, have the power to make this LEGO Eternal Boards free and beautiful, to make this LEGO life a wonderful adventure. Then - in the name of legocracy - let us use that power - let us all unite! Let us fight, act, build and create for a new world - a decent world that will give us minifigures a chance to work, play, act, write, improve - that will give the young youth a future and old age of the old timers, a sense of security.
By the promise of these things, our old ideas have risen to power. But the illogical old ideas lie! They do not fulfil that promise, they never will! Our old dictions free themselves to be lost and they are forgotten by the people! Now let us fight, play, act, work, write and improve to fulfil that promise! Let us act on these boards to tell the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with old memories, with hate and intolerance, and with a look for this site's future. Let us act on this site for a world of reason, a world where LEGO science and progress will lead to all minifigure’s happiness. Users, mods, ambassadors of these boards, in the name of legocracy, let us all unite!

So anyone feel enlightened after my speech, anyone? Huh?
Charlie Chaplin, "The Greatest Speech Ever Made". Yes, I know it. It is an excellent speech, one of the best. I think of it often and have a copy or two printed out and laying around in my room. How technology has separated us, when it should have brought us together. But hasn't it brought us together, like this place? Technology is only a tool, neither good nor bad. It's goodness or badness is only equal to the person or persons who use it.
If speeches about the 20th-21st century are your kind of thing, I would strongly recommend the speeches from the novels "The Fountainhead" and "Atlas Shrugged". Of course there are also those by Winston Churchill.

I was making reference to the fact that you showed great interest in a great speech. I do not know how well other speeches may be translated into LEGO related topics.

But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing of a pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure?
On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to distinguish. In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammeled and when nothing prevents our being able to do what we like best, every pleasure is to be welcomed and every pain avoided. But in certain circumstances and owing to the claims of duty or the obligations of business it will frequently occur that pleasures have to be repudiated and annoyances accepted. The wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection: he rejects pleasures to secure other greater pleasures, or else he endures pains to avoid worse pains.
I have been inspired by this and now i will make my own speech

Its pbvious the topic of this topic should now be changed to “make your speech to the MB’s.”
