[QUOTE]Originally posted by Bernd: [QB] http://talk.trekweb.com/articles/2002/04/16/1018955036.html From Trekweb: [QUOTE]"We're very aware of that, and we try very hard. We have made a few mistakes but nothing major. I read all these things on the Internet, these 'continuity pornographers' as I like to call them, though I didn't invent the term. These people honestly think that Rick and I are morons! of course we know that the Ferengi didn't make first contact with Archer. They made it with Picard. The only people who see the Ferengi are Trip, T'pol and Archer, and they never find out who they were. They were 'those weird looking guys' and they never see them again, so you can have fun with continuity!"[/QUOTE]I am more than angry about Mr. Braga's attitude and I wonder if he believes himself what he is writing here. I believe him that they are at least trying to stick to continuity. I believe that he's working hard to come up with good stories. I could understand him if he just declared more or less conscious violations of continuity as "artistic license", because it would allow more exciting stories (although it still wouldn't be right to do this on such a regular basis). I never said he or Berman was a moron (although I was often tempted to). But by making up awkward explanations and insulting fans who care about continuity he certainly doesn't make many friends. No one finds out about the Ferengi? Although Archer would have had all time in the world to scan their databanks after overpowering them? Although Archer threatened that he would inform SF Command of them he didn't even bother looking up how they are named? Although the Valakians mentioned them only a few episodes ago? Although the Ferengi already know the Bolians? Although Starfleet would have thousands of ships 100 years later, they still would never run into the Ferengi? Mr. Braga, better do your own thing and be otherwise silent than trying to teach us continuity! And if not that, what in the world would Braga call a "major mistake"? [/QB][/QUOTE]
