@WilsonTurner Your not the GM, you have no reason to judge anyone's CS or post.
Since I am based in America, and I inhabit it's arrogance into the internet, I say: Freedom of Speech.
And also- we are human beings. We will judge every single thing there is, regardless if it's snotty conscious judging or if it's unconscious. I don't care if you're religious, nonreligious, a plain ol' good person, or a plain ol' bad person. Everyone does it, and everyone will do it until we change our biology to be otherwise.
There are many times when, if I have a conscious judgement, I will say nothing and simply ignore it, push it aside, or let it influence me. But there are some things which I will most certainly not stay silent about. Consider me honest in that way.

Well Dr.Archer has two hearts, so you could consider her a time lord, even though they aren't in her body, their her hearts now, and she is willing to take organs from cremates but don't worry only ones that aren't needed really.
My character- who is not accepted yet- was born in the early days of interplanetary travel- that is, before FTL or even close to FTL travel. And he's still alive.
@MrMinerGuy142First of all- as a part-time Grammar Nazi, you need to space out your words. That giant block of words is painful and hard to read- each topic has its own paragraph. Like so- I am saying that you have something grammar-y that you should correct- you don't have to, of course- and so this paragraph is entirely dedicated to one thing- the grammar that you should fix to be a better writer and etc. etc.
A "Battleship" was a type of ship that was designated when a series of ships designated "superdreadnoughts" became better than a "superdreadnought," thus making a "Battleship" theoretically better than a "superdreadnought." In theory, a "battleship" is superior to a "dreadnought," since the "battleship" was built as the next level of "dreadnought." However, it's often used in science fiction as dreadnoughts being great big bullet sponges with really big guns, with battleships being the step below them, or equal to them, just with more focus on big guns than big armor.
A pirate vessel would be fool to engage any Navy ship unless it absolutely had to, or had almost all advantages- such as eliminating that ship's reinforcement capability. If a pirate vessel engaged a light ship, and that light ship didn't run, it's likely because that light ship just called for backup. Pirates, while they may certainly lack more civilized aspects, cannot afford to be stupid. They have very few friends, and must be wary and cautious, especially in times of advanced technology. Now, I know in FTL every single ship you come across will attack you unless they are really, truly friendly. But this is not FTL- and things are not balanced in real life like they are in games. Even FTL is balanced compared to real life- I know that there are plenty of times when there is quite literally no way to escape a hostile ship because it's so unbalanced. But most of the time- it's always like that.
@MrMinerGuy142 Second Post [recent]:
A) I am not arguing. Disagreeing and giving a lengthy response is not arguing, or flaming. If I were cursing and saying that you are most [insert insulting word] ever, then yes, indeed, I would be. But I'm not.
B) See, some people might say, "who cares, it's [subject]," but that's them- others aren't "who cares," they have a very large passion for it, and don't like a handwavium response. They might like details and facts- I would say, "who cares, it's cars," even though my dad loves cars so much that he's bought them, fixed them, raced them, drove them. I don't care much about cars, even though I kinda like them. But my dad absolutely loves cars, spends all his times on cars, and learns all he can about all the cars he finds interesting- which are most cars. So saying, "who cares," is rather rude to people who
actually care. See what I mean? And before you call this flaming- I am not angry, I am annoyed (as anyone can be), and I am responding reasonably and without insult or anger.
C) I am not taking offense.
@MrMinerGuy142 First Post/CS [recent]:
My personal opinion is that he looks like a cool guy. I don't see anything that I'd disagree with, except for one thing.
Just that swords, even very large sharp ones, would be largely ineffective, if someone had a taser (which could, nowadays, be a simple wrist-device) or somesuch. It might be that you aren't actually using the really large sword (which, with that size, would actually hinder combat inside a starship or inside a building), but that's just me saying this just in case.
@GodOfWarI've had bad experiences with flamewars- being the one people are flaming at, the one that is flaming at others, and as one that has joined in, or has flamed at someone else because of their less-flaming responses. I hold nothing against you- if I were flaming, I would. But I'm not, so I'm not holding anything against you... See?

Just because I am posting long-winded and thorough does not mean I am flaming, arguing, or very heatedly discussing. It means, that I am being thorough and longwinded. I believe something to be illegitimate or unreasonable, and I am saying so. Because no one is taking me serious and is just handwaving it away, I am reinforcing my point more until its paid attention to- if you had ignored me entirely, I would've either stopped entirely and not bothered, or I would've actually become angry and responded accordingly. I love science fiction- very much so. I love details and realism in this otherwise unrealistic possible world of the future. The things that make it seem like it could very much become real- not just a superfusion reactor that works because it does. Rather, a very powerful reactor that creates energy through a chamber that combines antimatter and its opposite matter to collect the burst of energy that comes when antimatter and matter react to each other and annihilate each other.
I've lost track on whether or not I haven't replied to something else that was meant for me, or that I was going to reply to. Either way, these are my responses. Again, since it needs to be reinforced so very often- I am not flaming. I am being thorough in my responses, because no one is taking me seriously. Because no one is taking me seriously, I am responding by elaborating more.
