Newland called himself "Fleet Admiral Thompson" here. He's a complete imbecile who has absolutely no shame about using an argument even if it's been disproven (to his face) fifty times.

Ok, I honestly don't get this. I'm hardly a scientist. I'm not in college and when I go, I have no intention of studying science or math beyond that which I'm required to take to be a music major. I'm a decently intelligent guy, but I'm no mental juggernaught. But I can see a picture and I passed my high school math and science classes. There is no possible conclusion beyond the Empire kicks the Federation's ass no matter how you look at it. It's not exactly all that complicated.
The gift of Superman is the same in his universe as ours. It's not about his powers, his costume, his persona, it's about the using the gifts he has to help people. We all have gifts too, maybe we can't leap tall buildings in a single bound, but maybe we're good with math, maybe we're charming. We can use our gifts -whatever they are- to help people. We just need to make that choice. And Superman shows us that it's possible.
I agree with that statement 100%. He makes a thread about a subject, we disprove him, then in the next thread he says to look at the other thread about why he's right.Darth Wong wrote:Newland called himself "Fleet Admiral Thompson" here.

Should I sign up to the board and give it a try to help educate these people or would it really be a wasted effort?

Yup. That's what they're claiming.Anarchist Bunny wrote:Wait wait wait, they are claming that phasers are 10 to 100 times more powerful than photon torps? Hell that claim is shot down in just about every episode where those two interact.
Plus the guy just doesn't get a chain reaction. He thinks that if a phaser will cause a chain reaction that totals over a gigaton in ice, it will do the same thing against a Star Destroyer. He doesn't get the match-to-a-forest analogy
They think phasers are 10 gigatons and photons are 100 megatons. Even though we've shot both down, Newland runs to another thread and claims it again.

Where did he prove TL's are pathecially weak? At numerous occasions, I see him saying that he's already proven it at another page, but I can't seem to find said page. Actually, that reminds me of someone else, who used to claim he'd already proven things...

I do not see what being a "warsie" or being a "trekkie" has anything to do with a debate on the ability of the Empire to defeat the Federation in all out war. So somebody who thinks wars will win is a "warsie" and somebody that thinks trek will win is a "trekkie"?
That's ridiculous. Your personal preference of what to watch and what is more enjoyable should have nothing to do with debating. I like watching Star Trek more than Star Wars for the simple fact that I grow tired of the epic good versus evil black and white space fantasy genre. A few exploding consoles here and there isn't going to turn me off Trek. There are only so many times you can watch Wars before you grow bored, and Trek has hundreds of hours.
"Trekkie" means something very specific -- a nerd who dresses up like Spock and goes to Star Trek cons. What the hell does it mean to some people, I don't know. If you want to diss people who think that Trek will win, don't use the word Trekkie. It insults the real Trekkies.
Where the hell did "Warsie" come from.

Trekkie was used as an insult against exactly the sort of folk Trekkie means: A fanatic whose completely out of touch with the real world. Of course, this upset the Trekkies, so they made up 'Warsie'. What's really pathetic is that if you used the terms in the wide world, no one would know what 'Warsie' meant. But everyone would know what 'Trekkie' meant.brianeyci wrote:I do not see what being a "warsie" or being a "trekkie" has anything to do with a debate on the ability of the Empire to defeat the Federation in all out war.

When we felt like being civilized, ASVS referred to the debators as 'Pro Trek' and 'Pro Wars'. Of course, we rarely felt civilized.

Hehehehehehe. The Trekkies are suffering friendly fire. *Accepts Newland's accidental concession that he made by saying his own position is unproven after mistaking it for our position.*

So, this "Last Bastion of Trek" is currently guarded by DarkStar, tjhairball, Fleet Admiral Thompson, and the Avatar of Narendra?
