the defendent may rise Ok so I am being attacked and now it is time to defend myself. Lets begin by looking at my posts in the 'Enforcing the Prime Directive' thread: my post Alyeska wrote: The Prime Directive only applies to Federation citizens... Are you sure? That seems rather odd since all the ...

final post for today (yes another excuse right? I mean, its not like I have to sleep is it?) Has he been warned about his behavior and signature? I believe so.

I am Admiral_Handsome. I have come to put down the lies which have been spoken of me. (worf before the klingon high council :) ) I have not yet read all this topic, but have quickly posted this because some of you think I turned tale and ran during the adultery debate. I did not. Let me say that I h...

Wow, Admiral_Hatfucker turns out to be another Borg wanker who just happens to be an idiot.

they actually had an episode dealing with that. some civilian members aboard the Enterprise wound up beaming the remnants of a primitive civilization to the holodeck on the Enterprise and picard was definitely pissed. ah yes, I remember that one.

If lying in a court room is a punishable offence, then lying in a church, registry office, mosque or whatever instutue is recognised by the land, should also be illegal.

Quote: I am not suggesting that a Borg shield is merely an impenetrable barrier to the bullets. I'm saying that they have the tech to absorb KE and channel it elsewhere, just like dampening fields do.

Wow, a massive starship's shield generators can absorb the recoil imparted to them by a torpedo so a shield generator inside a body can. Brilliant Shirlock. Odd that you read the words but do not comprehend them, and add an insult for good measure :roll: . If a borg ship can absorb the impact of se...

Then there's S8472, who turned a heck of a lot of drones into sushi. If the Borg could adapt to bullets, they should be able to adapt to being clawed. A fair point. But the borg could not adapt to any of 8472's tech. Their claws must have some of that tech on them :) Like Wolverines adamantium claw...

Adapt how? GAT says that even if they had shields that would take it, the kinetic energy would still be transferred into it and cause damage The borg ship can take the impact of photon topedoes. I therefore (rightly) assumed that this meant the shield were capable of absorbing KE. If the ships have...

Just because he beat Maul in combat doesn't necessarily mean he's ready to be a full Jedi. He gave in to his anger at that point and was on full attack mode. That is not the act of a Jedi. Look at ROTJ; Luke became a full Jedi because he DIDN'T kill Vader. I can see what your saying but I disagree....
