Um, what is with the Rama bashing? Yeah THIS board hasn't been around for 8 years... but the whole UP boards thing has been at least around for 6 (when I started posting - remembering replying to Identity Crisis about the FC ships!) Rama was there then - and a lot were. A lot who are here now, weren't. Just chill people. We all come and go. Although a lot of us come more than we go. OK that didn't sound right. You know what I mean.
*peace out*! LOL!

um, Hitler was on Earth before any of us, so does that mean we can't bash him? i'm not saying that RAMA is Hitler, but he was doing some pretty irritating shit.

For the record, unless I'm greatly mistaken, the original UP board began its existence approximately 5.5 years ago. Maybe slightly less than that.

I was not aware that ST5 featured the first use of the phrase "for the record" ever anywhere by anybody in the history of the universe. Ever.

I'm not sure why people seem to be under the impression that attacking individuals is acceptable. Its quite clearly stated in the forum registration process that it is not acceptable behaviour.

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that we have a "flameboard" and we are called the "Flare Sci-Fi Forums". A certain amount of flaming is to be expected...subliminal messaging of a sort? Just a thought.

Hmm yes, I thought it was rather odd that I was met with such a reaction after some good natured posts (even the Wolf 359 one was meant to be positive, ie: Trek tech being cooler than ever). It just occurred to me a few minutes ago that it may have seemed I made my first post in order to post pics, when I really have just been posting the link lately because the page was updated(and I couldn't update my profile at all). I see people here do that all the time (yes I have lurked once in a blue moon). I think some people may have gotten a bit jealous. Its not a big enough issue to continue on with, so let the tech talk commence!

Subliminal. Maybe. However the flameboard is for the flaming of issues, not for the bashing of people.
