It's not so much a matter of view, as a matter of how they reach that view. SFJ tends to use Darkstar's website as solid evidence. This is, at best, evidence of extremely poor judgement, given the flaws in Darkstar's analysis. Moreover, SFJ debating tends to focus on the strongest aspect of one power and the weaknesst of another, rather than analysing the powers in their entirety and determining the relative power from that.
If you had taken time to read carefully, you would have noticed that not everyone agrees with the more outlandish claims for Star Trek, and that a lot of arguments are actually well formed.
Examples please.

Nope!
A lot of people use it as a basis for analysis, but it's been pointed out a few times as inaccurate in certain analyses, by regulars on the board.
And, to use your favorite phrase:
Examples please... :mrgreen:
Examples please.
Well, this thread, for example (I didn't notice in the rules if linking to other boards was allowed or not, but since I saw it done in a couple of threads, I'll assume we can 8) ):

Wow.

Allow me to strongly disagree.

But I guess that would be harder then just judging based on what others said, right? :mrgreen:

Seriously guys, you may not agree with what is said over there, but don't put us all in the same basket unless you've been there enough times to know... :poke:
Hey man, glad to see you here. This be one of the more intelligent individuals from SFJ.

I've been there for a couple years now Praeothmin, you know that. And yes there are more than a few tools on there, usually the guys who got booted from SDN and sign up to bitch and whine about it.

I do, and I was happy to see your comments where you said SJF was a nice place to debate, except in SW VS ST case... which I have to agree a bit with.

This is also why I didn't point my comments at you, I've known you for a while at SJF, and like debating with you.
I think you are open minded, but I felt that a lot of other comments weren't...

I just felt I had to throw in my 2 cents... :mrgreen:

Let's hope you don't regret this comment... :P

Well you see, I'll have forgotten I posted this by tomorrow morning. :wink: But then I'll spend most of the morning trying to figure out where I posted talking to you.
