[QUOTE]Originally posted by crobato: [QB] TSN: We're not talking about writers getting ideas from fans. We're talking about writers taking note of criticims and praises from the fans. Most SF ideas are recycled from one to the other in the first place. As for the ranks, it is merely assumed for the readers or the watchers that the use of terms like commander and general is to give an equivalent perspective. These can be regarded as English translations of such. Terms like General and Emperor never truly existed with ancient cultures either, such as Persian, Babylonian, Aztec and Chinese. Diane Duane has invented Romulan rankings in her Rihannsu novels. It's non canonical, but it is very respected, such as that many TOS fanficcers follow her Rihannsu model as guidelines in depicting the Romulan empire. For example, the rank of commander is called Riov, and fleet commander is Gael Riov. [This message has been edited by crobato (edited May 14, 2001).] [/QB][/QUOTE]
