[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] How have the effects evolved, though? I mean, it fades in, it fades out. The effect from Star Trek III is more or less what a cloaking device looks like from then on. The difference between it and TOS is fairly minor, even. Moreover, I think my original point stands. There shouldn't be a "modern" cloaking effect at all. There's no reason why my ten year old cloaking technology should look similar to your three hundred year old one, nor why they have to develop in parallel. (They certainly [i]can[/i] if we're spying on each other or are trading partners.) Besides all of that, why should a more advanced cloak look particularly different than a less advanced one, and what do we even mean by the term? The Suliban cloak, for instance, apparently operates on an entirely different principle than the others we've seen. But does that mean it should look "older" or "younger?" Basically, this just seems, to me, to be a very minor issue. Of course, that being the case, my lengthy rant is probably unnecessary. (On a side note, when do the Klingons use a cloaking device in Enterprise? I can't recall them doing so, but it's very possible I missed it, and if it were from season four then it's certain that I missed it.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
