[QUOTE]Originally posted by Guardian 2000: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Daniel Butler: [qb] Wow. Just read through the last couple pages...Jesus, guys. Take it easy. The real world is hard enough without having actual feelings about other people's fantasies. Just watch the show, or don't. [/qb][/QUOTE]1. Intense discussion about fantasies created by others is what Flare is all about, historically. 2. Canon policies are fundamental to any discussion of the fantasies created by others. It creates an objective, third-party standard. If a fan rolls up and declares "well in my Trek fanfic I established that such-and-such ship is actually NCC-8008135," what will you do without one? Handling everything case-by-case is just a mess. 3. Canon policy discussion has nothing to do, prima facie, with watching, reading, or enjoying. One of my favorite Star Trek ship designs comes from Discovery, for example. Also, I've enjoyed TAS and various Trek novels and tech manuals. None of that is Original Universe canon. I didn't toss them in the trash or demand no one else enjoy them. Similarly, neither am I going to be told I must accept them as factual to the fiction or else I am a bad fan, as is so often done these days on Twitter. Enjoy what you like, subjectively.
