That’s my job, not my rank.
We have Super Moderators as well. Not exactly sure what they do…
@Orac Zen ?
Rumor has it that they're vulnerable to kryptonite.
From the transcript at http://www.chakoteya.net/DS9/459.htm:
WINN: You were able to replace some of his internal organs with artificial implants. Could you do something similar with the damaged parts of his brain?
BASHIR: It's hard to say with any certainty. There's still a great deal about the way the brain operates we don't understand.
BASHIR: It's hard to say with any certainty. There's still a great deal about the way the brain operates we don't understand.
I'm just going to go ahead and interpret "It's hard to say with any certainty" and the follow-up sentence about there being "a great deal about the way the brain operates we don't understand" as Bashir saying that he lacked the medical knowledge to transfer more than just the knowledge, which is what I said.
I don't do anything. I'm just here for the Romulan ale and other perks.
Oh. I don't get either of those things. Useless orange banner thingy.
Fair point. And as it was unknown to anyone else, and was still experimental, I still stand by what I said.
But what about ACT...ING? And singing at mafia boss weddings?
Who moderates the moderators?
Google and the Zuck moderate us all.
Is Zuck the Site Admin? Normally, the Admin is in charge, and the Moderators assist them. On my old site, I had the power to remove or edit posts, and I think I could close topics as well, or pin them. However, I couldn't ban people; that was an admin only privilege.
Zuck runs everything.
He sucks at it, but then so do many Soong-type androids.

There could be AIs among us.
It is my theory that long lasting and epsisode shows should be imagined to happen in many different alternate universes. So each episode should happen in an alternate universe, separete from the alternate universe of every other episode, and selected from billions of alternate universes by the creators to depict because it has an exciting andf dangerous adventure that the protagonists survive.
Except, of course, for episodes which are sequels to other episodes and so much happen in the same alternate universes as those earlier episodes.
Most of the kids seen on the Enterprise-D were seen in only one episode where things got dangerous, and possibly their parents got them off the ship as soon as they could after those dangerous events.
However, TNG was a lot more serialzied than TOS. The series did have some multi episode story arcs. Thus the Enterprise crew faced repeated dangers in the same timeline during those story arcs.
So the kids who were in the multi episode story arcs did face all the dangerous in the multiple episodes of those story arcs -Wesley Crusher, Alexander Rozhenko, and Molly O'Brien. It is rather improbable tha tthe Enterprise crew and passengers in general, and those three kids in particular, always survived all the dangers in the many epsiodes in those story arcs.
[Added 07-06-2021. I just happened to find another example of a child seen on the Enterprise D during multiple episodes. According to IMDB Rickey D'Shon Collins, b. 1983, appeared in three episodes as "Eric" - "Liaisons" 09/27 1993, "Masks" Feb. 21, 1994, and "Firstborn" April 25, 1994.]
But obviously the creators didn't chose to depict the events in alternate universe where everone was killed, but only ddepicted the events in alternate universes where the protagonists (with the exception of Tasha Yar) survived to the end of the series.

Actually the average length of a royal reign in France was longer than usual and nobody fought the rigning king for the crown from about 1000 to the start of the 100 years war, or again until the War of the Three Henrys. And even then I don't now if anyone wanted to depose Henry III or merely seize control of the government from him. Many other kingdoms were far more unstable.
Even though the early modern kings of France are listed as absolute monarchs, and Louis XIV is the typical example of an absolute monarch, they were not as absolute, despotic, tyrannical, autocratic, etc. as you imagine them to be.

Dust in the wind, man. He's long gone and will never see your response.
Honestly, I find that "theory" both extreme and unnecessary.
But as long as you have fun with it, well..
Fairly sure the poster "Freethinker" who joined after Swedish left and posted equally frequently before getting the boot inside a week was him attempting to return. If he didn't see the reply in that guise I'm sure he will try again so hope may not be lost
But they don't run this shit...
I went to the doctor today for stitches. It still sounds more fun than that theory.
I don't find it fun or interesting either, but as long as MAGolding has fun with their theory...well, good for them, I guess.
