  1. Lego should connect it's fans, not divide them, and yet, just like in some Marxist wet dream, there are two struggling classes: IRL Builders in their ignorance shun away those unfortunate ones who have no choice but to use LDD and other programs to build their MOCs. While IRL MOCers bask in the glory of their constructs made with physycal bricks, and praise eachother in a cycle of arrogance, narcissism and self adoration, We are the dirty brickless plebes to them. I tried, many times, to explain, to show how it hurts, when you are alienated from a community you try to be a member of. LDD users are ignored and unappreciated, and when they try to make their voice heard, they meet with patronizing, ridicule, sometimes disgust and hatred, and ultimately they are pacified by the moderators, like in some sort of police state. My tone may be harsh, my words crude and unpleasant but they are true, and the truth bites. All that I, and other digital builders want, is some understanding and just a little bit of recognition. We want to be able to participate in contests, we want to be treated with equal rights, we don't want to be ignored, shunned and pushed over by anyone. DIGITAL BUILDERS UNITE! The time of our Emancipation is nigh! This is our Manifesto, sign in if you're a LDD, MCLad, Stud.io, and other digital Lego builder, and you agree with me! Eurobricks need to change, and we need to fight for our rights!

      "Therefor, gather like-minded people and organize yourselves." You say. And Why do you think I wrote this? To unite the Digital builders all around Eurobricks under one banner.

      That's good, and that intention was clear to me. Although... the tone of your call makes it sound like you want to channel the frustration of all digital builders and direct it towards 'the system'. And that's not how it should be. "Us" versus "them" thinking will only create greater separation.

      Yes, I was frustrated, angry and agitated when I wrote this status, and I realize my radical and often aggressive tone can be offputting, but believe me, I don't want to start a war or something, I just want to show the problem. I'm a man that doesn't hide his emotions, When something grinds my gears, I speak about it, and I do it loud.

       

      " From here, the alienation grows. But, who's to blame here, if any?" This seemingly perplexing question has a simple answer, which you already gave: "And such thing is unthinkable for any physical builder.", the IRL builders, as a vast majority are unable, or rather unwilling to accept digital MOCs as legitimate builds, their shallow thought horizons are confined within a presumption, that Lego is only about plastic bricks, and other Lego related things don't count. My goal is to open their minds. IRL Mocers aren't my enemies, their ignorance is.
