PHASE II

The removal of all discontinued parts regardless of mold variations as
"these entries clutter up important basic parts" for the new users.

This may sound crazy, but no more crazy to the majority of users then what is
currently planned for February 15th.

Who do the current changes benefit?
NOT the Legacy of Daniel Jesek or all of the volunteers who created the database
NOT the Lego Community: Loss of an incredible resource that is used by most of
us on a daily basis
NOT the Sellers: Except for a few who want to save time, but at what cost.
NOT the Buyer: Will make it much harder to find the parts needed. Both new and
old buyers have been navigating this system for years.

Probably NOT Admin: I would assume most are against this move and see the nightmare
ahead.

That leaves LEGO.COM: I left a lengthy post in the first thread about how and
why this might benefit LEGO.COM's revenue, but I deleted it right after posting.
I will leave this topic up to your own critical thinking.
