Hello from The Brick Boards Staff Team! TBB was created by members of the LEGO® Message Boards to keep the LMBs alive for as long as possible, and we’re glad you want to be a part of this awesome community!
Part of what made the LMBs unique was the commitment upheld by moderators to ensure that the site was an 100% safe and clean environment. As our goal right now is to continue the LMBs, we are fully dedicated to keeping these boards 100% safe and clean. As such, our moderation team will be moderating every post before it can go onto the boards, and users will be expected to follow some rules. Not every rule can be covered here, but we’ve tried to cover the most basic and common ones.
External Links
External links will not be allowed except links to official LEGO® sites, the official The Brick Boards gallery, and whitelisted sites. The Brick Board’s full whitelist can be found

While we realise users want more freedom in this regard, TBB needs to be kept age-appropriate. As such, films/movies should not exceed a rating of 12A; video games should not exceed a rating of PEGI 12; and TV shows should not exceed a rating of 12A, unless they are made by LEGO® or LEGO® has endorsed them by basing sets or other media on them. If this is the case, then as a rule they will be accepted, but may be rejected if the staff believe that the discussion is inappropriate or will lead to inappropriate discussion. This will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
Image Guidelines Users should try and keep images to a minimum; they can get spammy. Additionally, users should try to post only images of Lego bricks, images taken from Lego.com, and images from franchises that Lego has endorsed by basing sets or other media on. Other images will be allowed if they are on-topic, but we request that you keep these images to a minimum. All images should be appropriate in the same way as a post, and should either be of a small size or in jammers. Animated imagery should not be used on TBB due to storage limits, and the difficulty and distraction it presents to Moderators.
Roleplays are allowed one map for each area of their world.
Avatar/Signature/Username Guidelines We have some default avatars that users are allowed to choose from. If you wish to upload a different avatar, please send it in a private message to all staff. These avatars must follow the image guidelines above.
If you wish to change your signature, please send it in a private message to all staff. Signatures must follow the image guidelines above.
Avatars, signatures and usernames with content that would be rejected in a post will not be approved.
Be Respectful These boards are designed as a continuation of the previous LMBs, and therefore are geared toward all ages. Please keep all content posted here appropriate for any age group.
Show respect for all community members, their beliefs, opinions, and backgrounds.
If a disagreement or other conflict does occur, stay calm and try to address it peacefully.
