@ancient posted his thoughts. Why shouldn't posters engage him in discussion? This is a discussion board!
OK, well, maybe you are simply joining in the discussion, but these are my thoughts about what you said.
Star Trek Discovery
- Thread starter JoeZhang
- Start date

And there was the scene of Sulu talking to the space hippy girl, and he was basically leering at her (big smile).
Absolutely, engage him in discussion, but the responses to his comments were mostly to call him names (bigot!), and drive him off the "discussion".
@ancient was the one who was treated with disrespect.

That's gonna happen when someone uses terms like 'fake genders' then starts dancing and avoiding explaining what they meant.
You did see where he started calling people "mayonnaise"
(whatever the he'll that means) when they asked him what he meant, refused to post his meaning, and then disappeared before you, oddly, went back ten pages to pull out one reply to his weird-assed rantings, and accused everyone of being disrespectful to start the discussion all over again?
This "discussion" ended a week ago, why would you bring it up again?
To get back on the topic;
It has been a while now and at first I was unsure whether I liked the ship design, more and more as I look at it, the more it is starting to grow on me.
Looking at the secondry hull, I think that it is possible that the ship has landing capabilities, possibly also might be a carrier for fighter craft, and maybe the nacelle pylons can articulate like the Intrepid class can do.
My own theory of the ship design could be that it was first a warship and now re-commissioned as an exploration vessel at a time when the federation is in short supply of ships.

I didn't go back ten pages. Just now getting caught up with this thread. I was not intending to "start the discussion all over again".
...You quoted a post, tossing in your own two cents, a week after the initial discussion occured. That's the definition of starting it all over again. I notice your getting caught up didn't involve bringing back any discussion of the actual topic that might have got short changed in the original crush of discussion, just this one bit of off topic junk, and then defending the troll that started it (MAYONNAISE-XIR? I just don't get it.).
But fine, I'll take your word you had no intention of trying to restart this discussion, but I ask you, then, to realize that that's the inevitable
result of quoting and replying to an old, dead off topic discussion.
Since it came up again, for those upon whom the references were lost...

Yes, thanks!
Point taken.
Thanks for the clarification. I never heard of any of these terms in regard sexual orientation. I will now refer to myself as wasabi sauce.
In all honesty, I myself had never heard them specifically before the discussion in this thread prompted me to Google them, either. I have long been generally familiar (and sympathetic) with the idea that gender identity—which is distinct from sexual orientation, BTW—is more complex and varied than a simple male/female binary, though.Thanks for the clarification.

OK guys. If you need to fight over sexuality and cannot be civil, then you need to log off for a while.
The personal stuff stops here. This is about the new show, not fighting over hot-button issues. Those better belong in TNZ. Take if there, if you wish to get into a discussion about it.
It stops here. I will start warning from here on in. No more fights; no more personal stuff.

Thanks again for posting that. I was befuddled prior to your explanations.
^ What he said...
Will Discovery possibly being set before TOS Do you guys think we're see any Enterprise-Era characters (Like Jonathan Archer, Soval, T'Pol, T'Pau) or TOS characters (Like Sarek, Chris Pike, Robert April, Sarek) appear in the series?
