Who is like God arbour wrote:

What was the E-E crew doing while they headed back to Earth? Don't know, and it's not all that important to the story just like it was not terribly important to show what the Rebels are doing on their way from Sullust to Endor, nor everything that Han, Chewie, Luke, Obi-Wan, Artoo, and Threepio were doing on the Falcon during their (presumably) several day trip from Tatooine to Alderaan.
I hope, it is obviously, that I'm only playing devil's advocate here. I try to argue, as if I would be a SDN denizen. I'm able to differentiate between what is real logic and what is SDN logic.
"SDN Logic" is an Oxymoron. After all, over there, it's perfectly OK to completely ignore the points being made in a post and simply spam insults if you can't win the argument, and for forum moderators to vandalise poll questions from "can you replicate a space suit?" to "whose (word that could theoretically refer to a male chicken, but usually doesn't) should I suck?"

Sorry, but SDN is the kindergarden of any serious debate.

There's a membership fee now?

Wow. It's like a fraternity, only sadder.

I presume he's referring to the "hotmail registration fee," whereby one is expected to pay out $5 for any non-ISP account.

That said, the above posts do smell a bit like trollbait to me.

It, above all, lacks any real constructive argument.

Actually, MY post was referring to actual, observed bahavior over there. You can see, for example, the vandalized poll by searching for the MUT 2K Pilot thread that was over there...the CORRECT poll is in the discussion thread here.

As far as I know, relating actual, true, verifiable information isn't trollbait.
