Edit: I just noticed its sort of a Lepers Colony because you can see who gets banned - the avatar change to the red BANNED one shows up in there.

That "banned" avatar is interesting, as I originally thought that those who were causing problems on the forums were simply shadowbanned. Nbreeki, for example, can still post on the forums, but absolutely no one else can read my posts. The fact that there is an actual forums ban, with a designated avatar and everything has me wondering why the two separate types of "bans" exist at all. Why not just straight-up ban someone?

Also: Starwordsc has decided to jump in the Cassandra thread in other to keep his righteous battle against all Dentals alive. I'll go ahead and flag this post as well.

He's continuing his meltdown in it.

At this point it's pretty obvious that he's losing his mind over a Star Trek game, and would be pretty funny if it wasn't just plain sad.

Yeah he's losing it. He is really pissed that fake Bajoran and Klingon deaths don't bother us. Trendy seems to moan and whine a lot on twitter these days, and this thread prompted her to take to twitter again.

For the crimes of mildly annoying myself and Yoderfunk, as well as failure to follow instructions or pay attention properly, followed by whining that my dead simple instructions on what foundry to do needed more instructions on how to do it, I assigned one of our Academy cadets to write a 375 word report on how to properly pour piss from a boot with instructions printed on the heel.

He completed his task and it's time we pass judgement over his performance while he is off doing the Starfleet Dental Aptitude Test.

Not MLA formatted, no thesis, obvious padding bordering going off on a tangent, improper grammar and several spelling mistakes. 3/10 would not even trust this pubbie to fetch reverse-polarized blinker fluid. Recommending he write another essay on the ethics and methods of brony rehabilitation after spending time among them in the field.

He started strong, but a third of the way through he starts with a passive aggressive vibe. I just don't think he's takes it seriously enough.

So I think at this point we have The People's Armada of Starfleet Dental, The People's Armada of Nerds of Prey. They are sister armadas and are collectively refered to as the The People's Armada. Does that sound good to everyone?

IMO replace the 'person' glyphs with klingon glyph in-line. And make it yellow to match.

That's actually a really cool idea.

But almost no one can read chinese so I don't know if it would have much impact. People would see "Klingon chinese chinese Chinese"

I think that leaving it as is, with the truly genius use of color for the Klingon emblem, is best.

And it preserves 人民舰队 as a nice conventional 4 character Chinese thing across both sides.

I really don't think nearly anyone would recognize the Klingon symbol as 人, vs lots of people seeing a Chinese thing and being reminded of communism and Tiananmen Square.

All the same its a legit cool idea, but maybe not enough sto players are Chinese-literate to get the joke. I don't know. Maybe on a separate piece?

Anyway I think it's a cool idea

Hmm. Maybe the phrase could fade in on top of the klingon emblem with Person centered in front of it, as part of an animated gif.

I think after we get 人民舰队 propaganda posted around enough that pubbies at least get familiar with seeing it, that a Klingon民舰队 riff would be cool, but people seeing it for the first time will just see it as Klingon-three character Chinese thing.

Up until 50 just go ahead and do story missions, you'll level fairly quickly that way. After 50, give up any hope of leveling before you die of old age.

My loving province is trying to kill me. A shitpile of forest fires (184) are burning and by a quirk of weather, the smoke from many of them have drifted over Vancouver Island and taken up residence for the last two days.

NASA was kind enough to take a picture from orbit:



And a few pics I took:





And a vid of my smoke drive down the island today:
