    Ya know, I just had a thought. As long as SFD and their associates are drawing all this aggro from the crazies, the crazies are not bothering other players or people on these forums with silly stuff.

    So in addition to ensuring your Captain faces down Death yet again with an absolutely stunning set of pearly whites, offering free access to a fully stocked set of maximized Holdings, and throwing some pretty good ingame parties to boot, SFD and their associates are providing a much needed community service. Namely, keeping the attention of the crazies so the rest of us can play this game and visit these forums without harrassment from people who are one Froot Loop shy of a complete breakfast.

    While I am not a member of any of their fleets, I am a fan. Sort of. When they do stuff which keeps the crazies focused on them.
    Thank you. Much appreciated. I mean the above sincerely. If anyone reads this as sarcasm, they are mistaken.

    Here is a random bit of crazy that popped into my mind. Pretty sure it is wrong but still, I found it a bit funny.

    Dental are just viral marketers for Something Awful. Think about it. They troll, use big flashy sigs, and leave their name everywhere. People google the name or whatever and find their site then they either lurk giving it ad views or even waste their money to join a forum.

    Again, odds are this is just my brain running away from me but who knows. If you don't see in a week know that the SA ninjas got me.

    Sounds fine to me... And it looks like it was recorded on a computer, not just video taped off a TV screen. No camera sway or distortion to indicate they were recording it with another camera.

    SFD is the best fleet in the game. All they do is help new players and hold events to give away free high end items and services. They also serve as a police force dedicated to driving out ERP and other inappropriate behavior that is not suitable for a family game. This game would not have lasted as long as it has if it were not for the hard work of people like SFD helping to keep this game healthy.

    Probably depending on your computer speakers I guess. *shrug*

    There are essentially two blocs who hate Dental in the game:

    First, the people who, through either narcissism or exhibitionism, believe that the entire playerbase needs to bear witness to, and assist in maintaining the immersion of, erotic roleplay.

    The second are people who, contrary to the spirit of Trek, hate anyone who acts charitably. The epitome of 'TRIBBLE you, got mine', these people aren't just satisfied with their own possessions, but actively seek to prevent those they see as undeserving from sharing the wealth.

    Why these blocs include a near-total majority of the 'crazy' people in the game is self-evident.

    There is a third bloc. People who almost got doxxed by them. I'm guessing there is another one. People who have been doxxed by them.

    Funny thing with the Xean incident is that based on their stated goals I would have expected them to LIKE Xean....

    Two points. This was in their early days. A friend had to get their @ handle changed thanks to dental also when they tried to do it to me I found a pair of channels they had to turn private after I found them.

    Maybe dental got their act together in the later years but I still a bit paranoid that the good work they are doing now is just PR to make up for the doxxing/trolling/other things.

    I forgot the second point. That doxxing is bad even if it is a "bad" person. If they did something wrong you take that to the law and don't try taking the law into your hands.

    I was browsing the news section for annual events held by STO and came across the following: Star Trek Online: 4th Annual Shutup Wesley Event.


    LOL!!!

    Look long enough on the internet and anyone will find a myriad of things that will offend them.

    As for the image itself... Yeah... I suppose I might be offended by it after chugging a 750ml bottle of scotch and inhaling several lines of "white powder" with my US one dollar bill. Which by the way has the Eye Of Providence on the back side of it.

    Yeah, the inverted star is truly an "evil symbol" because it has been used on the US Republican Party Elephant Symbol, an organization that is truly attempting to spread evil across the galaxy... Well at least on Earth... but you have to start small before stepping into the major leagues.

    3409267.jpeg


    Wings? Yeah, wings are evil. This is my official plea to everyone across the world... shot anything with wings on them. Burn all images with wings on them. I DON'T CARE IF YOUR DAUGHTER OR SON DREW THAT PICTURE WITH SOMETHING THAT HAS WINGS ON IT. BURN IT! BURN IT!! BUUUURRRRNNNN IT!!!
