Get your fill of sci-fi, science, and mockery of stupid ideas

No, that thread is not typical. But IMO it was meant as a joke.Doomriser wrote:Yep, a typical SB thread. (The ASVS thread wouldn't have the Wong bashing.)
Ahem, the link in this thread is to the SB.com Non Scifi Forum. Not all things at SB.com revolve around ST vs SW. Infact the Non Scifi Forum is currently the most active forum at SB.anarchistbunny wrote:I don't go there cause they disregard any of wongs figures, but provide none of their own. I was there for a very short time though.
What's ammusing is that this thread is just another SB bashing thread over a joke. Just another excuse to bash SB again....Alyeska wrote:Ahem, the link in this thread is to the SB.com Non Scifi Forum. Not all things at SB.com revolve around ST vs SW.

You ought to know better. If you don't like it when they make these threads, you don't insult them about it.Isil`Zha wrote:What's ammusing is that this thread is just another SB bashing thread over a joke.

*sigh* Such a hypocritical thread
Really... You accusse the entirety of SB (which at the moment the Star Wars side is currently in control of the Vs Forum) of being something they aren't. I inform you that SB doesn't even concentrate on the subject you have decided to judge them on. Your response? That what I said was pointless. No, what I said is not pointless. Your perpetuating a stereotype that has no place here. Your judging the many by the actions of the VERY few. Myself being a seasoned ST debater at SB I can state for a fact you are referring to at most 20 people at SB, no more. Yet you would judge all 600+ active/semi-active members for the actions of only 20 people?anarchistbunny wrote:Red HerringAlyeska wrote:Ahem, the link in this thread is to the SB.com Non Scifi Forum.

...or they'll just go on being hypocritical?Alyeska wrote:

Well there are two things you ought to learn. Laird is an Ass, and Admiral Valdemar thinks of himself as funny.Doomriser wrote:Hahahah oh it was a joke!
Sorry, we've just seen a lot of jokes (e.g. monkey pissing on Darth Wong's wife, the 'tiny galaxy' "joke", the Connie 'joke') so I did come in with some bias. SB arguments may be a joke but that doesn't make them funny.
You have almost as big an ego as C.S. Strowbridge. Do you actually think we spend any time bashing you guys? Meaning no offense, you're not too important to us. Not nearly as important as Wong. The only people in ASVS who achieve the hate-level that Wong gets in SB are Timothy Jones and Paul Jacques.Alyeska wrote:As for an ASVS version of the thread. No, it wouldn't have Wong bashing, it would have Laird, E1701, Alyeska, BigBryan, or Gothmog bashing.
Well that's good to know. I don't want you guys to waste your time making something that only about 50 people will hear at ASVS compared to the 3,607 people we have at Spacebattles.Pablo Sanchez wrote:You have almost as big an ego as C.S.

But since we're on the subject, let's all insult Laird.
I'm sure that the 100 people that post regularly, and the 10 people that aren't morons, share your opinion.Bryan wrote:Well that's good to know.

Actually before I made that "ego statement" I did a search for the names Gothmog, Alyeska, and E1701 and I found more then one thread (for each person) where you were happily ripping into our beliefs and at the same time stating SB babies and making collective statements about SB.Pablo Sanchez wrote:You have almost as big an ego as C.S.

Actually the 100th ranked member at SB has 2853 posts and joined in April of 2001. The 300th ranked member of SB has 773 posts and joined in Feburary of 2001. There are aproximately 300 some active members at SB, and there are some 300 more semi-active members who post often enough to be recognized by a fair number of people.Pablo Sanchez wrote:I'm sure that the 100 people that post regularly, and the 10 people that aren't morons, share your opinion.Bryan wrote:Well that's good to know.
