Actually it's kind of in your title, so new people should be excused for thinking that.

But why should people who've been around awhile automatically get respect? If anything, the people who've been around awhile are the ones who've been here long enough to know that no one gets any respect here.

I believe that i have proven as far as legos go i know what i am talking about. Typing is not my thing but i do know legos so i think maybe just maybe i can get a little respect in lego.You can make fun of my typing i don't care but as far as legos go i know what i am talking about.

True dat.

It's a forum, the only person who deserves respect is the moderators and people who actually show respect to others in my opinion.

Okay, a few things about this.

1. You've shown us you can make minifigs and some MOCs that are good, but nothing special.

2. Let me show you these sentences you typed earlier in this thread:

I wish you new people would show a little respect for the people who have been here a lot longer then you. Second most people have at least some pieces that are the same color. Even if he does not which is not likely can can use the multicolored pieces in coordination.

That may be but people in this world have opinions and if you don't want people to make fun you your stuff then you need to bend to there opinions a little. That or do something like a-tree and just make a new genre that people think is cool. So i see that you are going for the rainbow colors here and that's fine its just that most people will think you don't know how to build become you build that way. Rainbow building is for the most part considered junky and amateur. so by all means build rainbow just know that if you ever get out of the rainbow group and in to the "real world" as for as building goes you will be laughed at for the colors.

You can type fine. You tupe like an idiot and an imbecile just to stand out, which is the most twisted logic in the world. You WANT to be seen as someone who types bad so people are going to focus on that. If you go so far out of your way to look like an imbecile then people are going to see you as one.

3. I'm on birdman's side as well.

why i don't type good most of the time is becouse of never re-read over my post before posting them not cuz i want to stand out.

i like the design.
it would be better if you had the right coloured pieces and some better shapes but its ovious that the design if changed with some less blockey pieces it would be really good.

Well, I know im new to these forums and all, but, I've always got something I'd wanna say.

On the Hovertruck, I rather like the idea of it. I also like the front design, and the roof look. Would look really nice if you kept those like that. Sides however, do look blocky I admit. But its a hoverTRUCK. Its supposed to be blocky. The day I see a Sleek 18wheeler down the street is the day I go home and cry. Sometimes a giant block of sexy is..well..just that..sexy.

Using Broken legoes. most all minifig gear are tehnically "broken" with sawed off handles, grips, so on. Sometimes alittle modification is a good thing.

Uh..*checks list* Oh right!
Need to add some sort of visible heavy duty lifting power for the hover truck. I don't mind the color much myself, I rather liked the torn up caution block on there. The fuel gauge, however, kinda random. Should add some kinda front headlights. Oh, and add some 4x1 flat strip to the sides to keep those blocks from wanting to cave in. Nothing says "OH ****" more than the wall of your truck caving in on your passengers.

If I were you, i'd completely grind and sand off all the remaining wheel spots, put some sort of lift looking device under it or to the sides, and then lastly add some landing gear for park.

To the FlameWar between JB and the Peole of BrikWar Utopia, I hereby declare, hey, its legoes.What you think is great might be ugly to someone else. Just be considerate to other people's views, don't expect an entire meltdown of "Oh yes master!" 'Sides, to be very literal and cite again what I said up above. NatalayNF (I believe is her account name) Sawed off some rifles and stuck bits onto them. Made pistols out of rifles! Thats..broken if you ask an uptight snob. Ask me, thats getting rid of extras that you don't need.

By the way, I know its basically first day and all, but Forums are something im accustomed to. I sorta "Jump on the saddle" as the saying goes.
