PepperEvilMuffinZMrCookieDestroyer I am sending you this e-mail to inform you I think that they are using you’re services (PM) to violate the U.S. Communications Decency Act of 1996. This federal law prohibits: “the use of a telecommunications device (i.e. including Internet technology) that: makes, creates, or solicits, and initiates the transmission of, any comment, request, suggestion, proposal, image, or other communication which is obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, or indecent, with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass another person" They have used foul, abusive and suggestive language in e-mails from your site with the intent of harassing &/or intimidating I or my son. I have also sent alerts to your moderator(s) regarding the material that was posted under a thread entitled “Bazooka” (my son’s username) in the “Drama” section. The sole purpose of the thread was to demean and belittle him and some of that material, I would also suggest, violates the above federal law. Some of the material is deeply disturbing and I am surprised that a site that uses “Lego”-style building blocks to create virtual worlds in order to attract & cater to minors would allow such language & pictures on their forums. If I can be of any additional help, please let me know.

Sadly we are not communist china and sadly i do not have as much time on my hands as you to read through the U.S. Communications Decency Act of 1996 or read all the pms our dysfunctional users are sending eachother. The internet is not a place that is full of goodness, every website is not moderated as scrutinously as club penguin, and your son probably did something to piss everyone off in the first place. I suggest you encourage him to play outside instead because the lego game industry is a mean world.I appreciate that you want to protect your son's innocence (or whatever remains of it after that barrage of indecent photos of an ipod guy hanging himself, and a plane in a tree) but the best way to do this would be to not let him on the forums because these people don't just pick random kids to make drama threads about.By the way, these aren't my forums (i just realised) - you're looking for the guy with "Administrator" under his name.
Not to me, unless he wants to extradite me to the USA haha.
He can't get anyone for anything, I'm reading into the law right now.
Oh don't bother, seriously. The day this guy files a lawsuit for calling his dumbass son a dumbass is the day I eat my hat.
WtfNew hat picture? :o
