Guinan's ability to handily defeat Worf was inexcusable, from a security perspective.
My thoughts, exactally! It is a sad day when the ships bartender is a better marksman than the chief of security! This might explain why Worf couldn't hit the broadside of a Ferengi!

In the case of most energy weapons, I think basic aim is more a factor of hand-eye coordination than anything else. But maybe Guinan would have made a better chief of security :)

D00d, everyone has a lot to fear. Its Whoopie-freakin-Goldberg. She could probably drop 50 men with her dreads alone.

... With her gaseous emissions. There's a reason she took the stage name "Whoopie" to begin with. Hint: Think "cushion".

I agree, its fun to see you take a guy apart, but they run away too fast, why don't you build it up, so we can see other examples of reasons they need a VI tag.

Lol I'm not a vet. But I've been flamed. SD.net is like college. Everyone goes through their beatings. Unless you're a Warsie. Then you get a free ticket. :( I wanna be a warsie..

You don't, example, SD.net reject, I don't remember his original name anymore though.

Nah he's just another rabid idiot, given some strange claims on both Trek and Wars side(look for nice examples in SWvsST board under here and PSThere) to name a few.

And yes a rabid warsie by the name of Mike 6002 is HDS' dumbass in question...

You were flamed for posting stupid ideas, NOT for being a Trekkie.

hmm, i always thought this one should have more. It's cause normally i have to look at the msn ones, which all look like they're being bummed. I prefer these smileys, significantly more innocent, see :D for example.
