Posting this here to promote awareness of the lawsuit CBS is in over the blatant plagiarism case. Thye stole the idea from a game dev and are trying to make it look like he is the bad guy. Please spread around.

Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

The worry here is more that the guy that is suing is basically duped by some fanatic Discovery haters that have lost all sense of proportion and realism to pursue this and end up sitting on his legal fees and have nothing to show for it.
The most recent genuine development was the judge telling Anas Abdin to find proof that ANYONE at CBS had even HEARD of his game prior to writing Discovery. So far he's batted 0. His latest attempt was yet another mass-media campaign combined with trying to subpeona the Steam access history of everyone at CBS...
IE: the core premise of his case was not verifiable as fact before he started litigation. He literally filed a case without proof.

And I doubt this will be the last thread about this nonsense.

Really... getting... tired... of this insanity. The evidence speaks for itself. Case is baseless. Just frickin' let it go already. In the end its probably going to hurt Abdin more due to discovering that he ripped stuff from Dune and maybe Stargate.
I don't think you could have used an image which more perfectly captures my thoughts on this absurdity.

Pretty much any scientist who discovered some unknown/odd looking insect/fish could have sued Star Trek for 'stealing idea's' (as we did not have much to go on in the 60's... or even the 80's...
But most people have better things to do than sue over an idea involving an enlarged Tardigrade, discovered in the 1700's.
you folks might love the big corporations, but I'm backing the little guy.
amazing how many are siding with CBS, on these threads.
stockholm syndrome, i guess.
Right, becuase we DARE disagree with you.
The case is paper thin, the lawsuit is B.S. this thread is Spam. Just because we recognize bull TRIBBLE when we see it doesn't mean we're 'siding with the big corporation.'
Get over yourself.
Why post a video from Nerdrotic, he picks up on anything that allows him to spread his hatred of Discovery to all his subbers who regularly lap it up and spread it around, he's got more in common with a virus than a Star Trek fan. That guy is like a eunuch's mammaries
All those butt hurt Discovery haters have to stick together.
No one else is going to listen to their garbage.
Too right, can't get through a single one of his videos all the way because of all the negativity and effin' an' jeffin', it's social media that has a lion's share of the blame for that
Also, even the judge told CBS to put "put up, or shut up". And I see the Taridgrade game.....Anas is in the right, he made the stuff FIRST. Also, funny how folks accuse Discovery haters being desperate....YET the Disco folks seem to have NO problem giving VERY negative, very toxic words to Anas...such as saying they are HAPPY his father died.
*slow sarcastic clap*
Interesting

If CBS was actually confident that they didn't steal the blue tardigrade, then they would have kept it blue.
BINGO!
So far, a lot of the pro disco folks are sending hate mail to Anas.....including they are HAPPY his father died.
I'm not telling the Disco folks, or the fans to die or happy their sick parents died.
So.......you want to be a pot or a kettle?
So, like the folk sending hate mail to Anas as better?
First of all, that has nothing to do with the topic.
Second, that is a shameful minority of the fan base that would partake in actions like that. Trying to use that as a reflection on the majority is a shameful practice that should be beneath you.
No one accused you of such. The only person that even brought this up is you.
I'm neither. And if you're trying to accuse me of these type of shameful practices then frankly, you can go TRIBBLE yourself.

Also Sea of Sorrows. Cool it down a bit. The only one acting butthurt is you, Bailey and the rest of the people have been completely civil here, no need to start telling people to go tribble themselves because honestly, you're only proving her point by acting like that.
I don't think the mods should close this down, but maybe put out a warning to keep it civil.
First of all, I am backing CBS not because I love big corporations but because Abdin's case has no legal merit. Also, you do not know what is in my heart. It is your bias against corporations, who you probably think are evil, that is why you are having a problem. Also, I do not agree with threats against family members or death threats, period. Whether they like Star Trek: Discovery or they do not like Star Trek: Discovery. Thanks.
