stephen_rockefeller Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 So I am looking into getting into this in my area. I'm sure there are members here that are also LUG members. I know a while back LUGs were brought up and a member who is no longer member here was acting like LUGs are some exlusive super secret underground club. Looking at a LUG chapter website in my area, it doesn't seem that way at all. Any experiences you would like to share would be helpful. If any of my Texas peeps want more info just let me know. Quote
IrishGuy66 Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 LUG....? I'm sure once you remind me what it is I'll feel like an idiot. IrishGuy hands in his nerd card.... :( Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted May 21, 2013 Author Posted May 21, 2013 I will let someone with more experience explain it. I am still looking into it and wouldn't want to explain it wrong. I do believe it stands for Lego user group though. Quote

Mos_Eisley Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 Yes, it's LEGO User Group. It doesn't take anything to join one. Just contact an existing LUG to find out when and where they meet. Attend a meeting and you're a member. Quote

Attend a meeting and you're a member. Hmmmm. Pretty strict guidelines, not sure I like that. Anyway, I know we have one locally here, but I really haven't found the time to join up with them. Quote

They'll also need to make sure you have a used or new 10179 in your collection and every member of any LUG has to Paypal me annual dues of $25 because I trademarked the term LUG. But other than those things, it's easy. Quote

TheOrcKing Posted May 22, 2013 Posted May 22, 2013 I just found that LUG also stands for Linux Users Group. Wierd....Anyway, how do you find local Lego groups? LUGnet.com? Quote
