CBS/Paramount sues to stop Axanar

Not open for further replies.
I personally think it is too much, for example, to be looking at the girlfriend's professional activities and trying to draw inferences about their potential degree of sympathy for Axanar because of 'similarities'. If her relationship to Axanar is social with a staff member, she has the right to be left alone no matter what she does or believes. Not a criticism, please don't take it that way, I just offer my sense of it.

I agree. And just to be clear, this isn't a gendered double standard. I'd say the same thing about Alec's nephews. The fact is, these individuals' relationships and private conduct are tangential to the Axanar scam perpetrated by AP. Alec's public misdeeds are an embarrassment of riches that we're justified in discussing. However, it's none of our business who he takes to the Olive Garden.

, Diana could have bought some postage, done a mail merge, been done with it all, but she still has to answer to Alec, her boss.
I totally agree with you and I'm glad earlier in your post you pointed out that she should at least shoulder some guilt for her part in the mess because, essentially, that was all I was questioning. Personal lives are just that. Let's take the recently departed Terry McIntosh. No matter how odious his online behavior appears to be that would be no justification for any references to his partner (if he has one). But if his partner was the guy or gal responsible for, lets say, refunding unhappy donors and that task simply wasn't happening then he or she would, in my opinion, be justifiably in the firing line.

But I understand mine's a minority view and that's fine and dandy. I hope I haven't annoyed anyone too much:)
 
Then I apologise but I found it staggering that this woman was being patronisingly described as "extremely sweet" based on what? Her online persona? Her online image? For all we know this lady is also enjoying benefits derived from the money donated by Star Trek fans. During the short time I've been following this I've noticed a certain level of ire directed at the likes of Peters, Burnett (Meyer Burnett? I'm never sure) et al and yet Miss Kingsbury and now Miss Hubbard often receive a free pass and I find myself wondering if that's down to their gender?
So it's "Are you now or have you ever been" associated with Alec Peters?
 
I was browsing the net earlier and came across a website where someone is doing an upgraded version of the game Jurassic Park: Trespasser as a hobby and fan effort. In the about us section I found these sentences and was immediatley struck by the contrast between what this person is doing and the subject of what is being discussed in this thread:

As this project is based on a commercial title, abandoned or not, I have no plans to start a Kickstarter campaign, or actively seek any kind of commercial publishing. The is a fan made project, for fans and will be released for free when its competed.

Given the latest updates from the Axanar blog, Deadwood Sheriff Seth Bullock seemed to understand Lord Alec pretty fucking well:

“Again, why you don’t listen to the bloggers with agendas and armchair lawyers who think they know what they are talking about….they don’t.”

And you do? Seriously, you first believed it would take the Judge a couple of weeks to deliver a ruling on your MTD. It took him less than 24 hours after the hearing was cancelled. You also were sure you’d get some items thrown out with your MTD (you believed the ‘unripe’ claim as to the Axanar feature film not being produced yet would prevail… except it did not.

If anything, although you claim you’re a “lawyer by training”; you come across as a very poor ‘armchair lawyer’ yourself of late – so why you still believe anyone should listen to you with regard to this legal situation is beyond me.

(And yeah, I realize my comment won't survive the moderation process - still I do enjoy the fact that someone 'high up' in the Axanar ranks will read at least a portion of it before clicking delete. Hey I want to get SOME small personal satisfaction for my $75 mistake.) ;)
 
Oh my, this is so, so sudden.

I burn easily.
What - now she's gonna comment on Family Law matters (Ugh!) :ack::angel:;)

[I've had to work on PC issues while family Law cases are being heard - those court employees deserve a physiological stipend so they can go see a good psychologist after having to listen to that kind of testimony for 7+ hours a day.]:barf:
