Seems like Star Trek Dimension is only fucking over their English readers. The German address still works, just with the peacenick stuff on the bottom of the page.

Of course, because English-speaking people are evil. Only the German language is synonymous with peace and tolerance :roll:

On a total tangent, I was just ego-surfing on SCN and I found a thread where several folks complained that this place was full of vulgarity and people being mean to each other. Talk about stranger in a strange land...

That is pathetic. First you condem him for his original actions. Then when he does the "Right Thing" you find another excuse to insult him. :roll:

Link please?

While doing nothing against the infringements on human rights in the Iraq by its dictatorian government would not have been a solution either,

So how do you get rid of Saddam? Ask him?

Maybe giving him pretzels might do the trick :wink:

It's the hypocrisy of sticking to his moral stand for all of two weeks. I mean come on? If he really had a moral conviction he would have seen it through to the end but instead he gives up after two weeks. I'd have respected him more, at least, if he had actually stuck to his guns.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. In other words you (I am using that term in a general sense, not signling you out Stormbringer) are going to bitch about what he did regardless.

As for myself, I am glad Bernd changed his mind. I find it a valuable sight and I am insulted by those who would have preferred Bernd stick to his "morals" and deny his sight to people who find it useful.

Yeah, there probably would have been people that bitched either way. I personally don't much care.

While that might be, as a protest it was rather weak and shows how little conviction he had behind it.

Obviously. As soon as he tried that little stunt, a negative reaction was a foregone conclusion. Why is that unfair?

I don't think anyone's saying they would have preferred that he stick to his morals. But this is a guy who spends a lot of time on his moral high horse (perhaps you didn't notice his sanctimonious proclamations of moral superiority during the spat between our board and his), and a lot of people are just pointing out that it sways with the prevailing wind.
