New parts weren't loading for me so I had to delete LDD and re install, maybe this update doesn't like Lif Extractor? now a java update killed my Bluerender :(

I often wonder within the massive amount of market research we volunteer for Lego if they ONLY rely on Numbers of support or do they themselves realize that that alone is the largest problem with the whole process, A projects popularity depending on how much promotion you yourself do. Of course this might not mean just anything can get large amounts of support alone regardless of the projects quality but rather leaving out many potential ideas that could otherwise be great sellers. IF however Lego themselves draw on the site for ideas then maybe this is not such a problem THO I would suggest that is not the case sadly and to myself Lego and what they choose to produce gets a little puzzling

I know it has been a while since the last reply But I thought I'd add my 2 cents as this thread is what finally got me to join. As far as what is wrong with Ideas and how it can be addressed.... I really don't understand why some of you have a problem with LDD or any other form of virtual Lego. The way I see it is Ideas is a place to not only submit ideas but also specific projects that often include what I consider "solved puzzles" as to me Lego is a puzzle as much as it is simply a building medium. Lego more often than not IMO releases models that while abide by their strick criteria could have been done FAR better. Many of us Lego fans display hundreds of ideas and examples of exactly this, better ways of building* Lego ideas DOES suffer from far too many simply wanting to display their mocs among other obvious problems and to late the minimum support in what is it 80 days(?) is doing a great job. A suggestion I have is that they limit virtual builds to quality renders and images that way it would naturally filter those without the capacity to accomplish such a task as easy as it is. Ideas to me is a place to submit what is either not such an easy task for anyone to assemble OR build a model in colours that are as yet not available. Almost all of my MOCS require settling on colors that I believe detract from the original concept if brick built with such things as black curved bricks for windows and solid coloured wing pieces that could have otherwise made a great trans red tail lights. My only other concern is inconsistent administration allowing rules to be broken for some submission yet declining others. At one stage EVERY SINGLE submission I made came with a rejection and note from admin explaining in further detail why it didn't pass( I'm unsure if the notes are common so I do admire them for taking the time)But I would be pointed to a list of rules that didn't seem to apply to countless others and often could argue the interpretation on some every strong grounds. But anyway I just wanted a rant lol and see a digital build holding just as much merit as brick built as they both represent possibilities AND impossibilities just as well as each other

Hi all I just thought I'd finally join and say GDay to my fellow Lego fans :)
