Guys, I've made an incredible impact!!!!! If any of you have seen my "Gallery chatroom" post, you see I asked Lego a question. Well I did it again, and this time I was discussing how bad Lego.com is, I told him all the reasons and he said they will absolutely fix the site, making it enjoyable again. And get this-he asked me if there was anything I would like to see on the new site, and-oooooh, I'm so excited-
I don't know if anyone's talked about this yet, so I figured I'd set up a topic about it.
LEGO.com has reached a new low in its devolution. Nearly every feature and activity has been taken away from the site. What little there was left of the galleries is completely gone. Themes no longer have dedicated sites or product pages, making finding what you want extremely difficult. There is no longer any way to search for or filter anything on the website, besides filtering content by themes, making it quite literally a disorganized mess of free-advertising, what little passes for a "game" these days, and a confusing jumble of images and videos that are impossible to sort through. Oh, and to make matters worse, the only thing you can judge games or videos by is the thumbnail. There are no longer any titles for anything.
So, to recap: LEGO has completely sacrificed its website's organizational features, its website's intelligibility, and really any sort of fun you can have on it... and for what?
So that it could bombard children with a constant stream of random, meaningless images of different products, sets, and videos. And MAYBE if they're lucky they can actually find that game they DID want to play.
...I just don't know what to say. This is a complete travesty. The non- "Grown-up" portion of the site is completely unfunctional now. HOW DUMB DOES LEGO THINK KIDS ARE?! Nobody's gonna be happy with this!
I hate what LEGO did and am still thinking some not-so-nice thoughts about LEGO.

LEGO as a company is just not the same as it used to be anymore...
Speaking of the LEGO company's business decisions:
Be forewarned: the news-articles I write are satiric parodies of real articles that LEGO releases on their newsroom. There are exaggerated remarks in the spoof that are intended to have the sole purpose of making the article funnier. I did go on a somewhat inane rant afterward about what I think about China's government, however, which kinda goes "full-circle" so to speak back to the issue of LEGO kinda being in cahoots with China's government to, in my estimation, coax favorable court-hearings out of them. Just a wild hunch I have.

*cough cough* Those posts are actually still being discussed, they haven't made it through yet.

Oof.
I hope they're not the subject of too much debate, the article itself is entirely intended for good-clean fun
