' Wrote:I would bet all of my Sirius credits (and thats a lot) that if someone came in here with the Federation, Klingons, Romulans, Borg, Naboo, Jedi, Sith or anything else like that, it would get flamed way harder than this did. I personally would flame the h-e-double hockey stick out of anything like that, and I dont usually flame anything.
Yeah, but there's no good reason to flame them if we allow BSG and Cylons. Once we allow people to start playing stuff from one entirely different universe, we have no ground to disallow other entirely different universes. Our moral high-ground and RP principles are gone.
But, like I said, unless we're going to throw out BSG, allow the Cylons. Can't have one without the other.
I might have to break out the list of flaming.... what is it, you ask? Simply check all that apply (this is for future reference, not here)!

Democracy is overrated. It lends itself to emotional persuasion and not rational and informed thought. I say, allow Darwin rule. If we succeed, then we exist.

This should be Flood's first pinned thread! Gave me one hell of a laugh. We should use that from now on. Should always be second post in any YANF thread.
' Wrote:Its called Discovery, which implies creativity, thinking out of the box, inspiration, imagination..................
Aye, it implies interesting original ideas, as opposed to just grabbing a race/society/faction from whatever other sci-fi universe you happen to like the most. That's neither creative, outside the box, inspired, or imaginative.
I say vote on it. Heck, I say vote on ALL new factions.
