I will not stand for discrimination in STO.... (Re: Handsome Phaser Guy)

I will not stand for discrimination against handsome phaser guy on the main page! Now, hot Romulan girl gets her own animated advertisement while handsome phaser guy sits below forgotten and frozen in time, relegated to being a back stage prop. Whatever happened to the glorious time when handsome phaser guy was a main feature on main page? Poor guy will be out of a job and on the street collecting SSI before we know it. I don't think I can ever forgive you Cryptic. Sniff, sniff.

    Maybe Handsome Phaser Guy simply prefers being under Hot Romulan Girl? ;) Did you ever think about his needs? :rolleyes:

    A handsome phaser guy only needs his trusty phaser. Hahaha. I think the being underneath part was only coincidence ;D

    TBH, I don't think hot romulan girl would allow handsome rihansu guy to steal her spot light. She's become too powerful and too ambitious.

    Rommie gal I have heard called "Sohawt"
    Vulcan gal= "T'TRIBBLE"
    Doesn't handsome phaser guy deserve a name instead of his current generic moniker?

    Handsome Phaser Guy is and has always been nothing more than a back stage prop. They just need to take things further with the sexytime new Romulan lass. Something like "Find your mate today" in flashing letters. Perhaps then, can STOL compete with the likes of that game behemoth seen advertised across just about every website in the dark back alley of the internet... Evony. :P

    That would make the her make seem like some poster girl for some match making site like e harmony. That's beneath her (no pun intended Bobby Joe McPhaser).

    Come on people, we need your opinion on this. So far, it's three votes in favor of handsome phaser guy being officially named Bobby Joe McPhaser. What other names do you prefer? Help us give phaser guy a name before he becomes a forgotten memory!!!

    I think Handsome Phaser Guy probably tried to read the threads in the news/announcements sections and eventually was so disheartened with the mountains of nonsense that posters who can't read rain down in there he turned the weapon on himself.

    It can't be true! I can't believe it! He was too young, with such a bright future ahead of him. Could it honestly be true?

    Would you prefer something like Pierre Le Pew Pew?

    It's not discrimination my friend, it's affirmative action, besides, with T'TRIBBLE being frozen in a falling down position for so long I doubt she's very happy and do you want to be the one to tell hot Romulan girl she shouldn't have an animated advertisement? I won't be volunteering for that job, I prefer my genitalia intact.

    It sure is. Giving her that front and center advertising position is Cryptic's way of trying to make up for relegating all the female Romulan boffs to second string by giving them inferior traits to the males.

    all we have to do is sneak behind romulan woman, vaporize her and replace her with a romulan version of Bobby Joe McPhaser. Its a instant win, but if she catches you sneaking behind her, i wish good luck to us all...

    Poor bobby joe. Little does he know that Romulan woman is attracted to guys who try to backstab her. Why do you think her last boy friend was Tal Shiar? Keep your friends close and your enemies closer...

    I like S'tud and Count Remanula. Cryptic could potentially do a Count Remanula advertising campaign with general mills who for a limited time could turn Count Chocula into Count Remanula. Smitty "the phase" O'pew is kind of catchy, but I'm not sure I can imagine a Smitty captaining a star ship. Sounds more like a red shirt to me :p

    Commander Bachs sounds too plain to me. It needs to have a ring to it.

    I am a female & I know why phaser guy is being left out in the cold all while the girls get all the action, the animation & it takes no imagination either to figure out why.

    I'd call it "Adonis Advertisement". Some might call it smart or genius even! :D

    I take no offense; you need to make your money some way, some how. It seems as though sex does in fact sell! ;)
