I join Flare and start newbiing around and I am thinking about the Excelsior bridge in TSFS. Why? God only knows.
I hop into the S&T thread and there, as plain as day, is a thread called REQUEST - The Definitive Starship Bridge Screencap Collection Pages: 1 2 3 4 ... 15 16 17, a 250 post-pushing thread that has been within the top 5 topics of S&T forum all summer/winter.
[I just can't see how the latter can be justified with what is found in the former...]
Seeing that topic title, in itself, even at first glance, would require neither reading every single post ever in Flare, much less needing to use the search feature, much less posting a thread with a nearly identical title/topic! It's understandable if it was discussed a year ago in a completely unrelated thread, but my God...this is worthy of a stick in the eye.
P.S. Pictures are on the way if you still haven't managed to read the above aforementioned thread.

I wasn't interested in screencaps, though. I was by far more interested in plans or blueprints. Which that thread doesn't explicitly mention. In fact I find screencaps to be a poor way of imagining a bridge layout. I added it as an afterthought. I'd much rather have schematics. Which that thread doesn't explicitly mention. Which would explain why it didn't grab my attention. Because the thread title didn't mention what I was after.

I'm pretty sure we discussed plans of that bridge early on in that thread, and, as I recall, there don't seem to be any around. I remember people referencing comic book pictures and what not.
I've already read the thread, so I'm not going back through it.
