CBS/Paramount sues to stop Axanar

Not open for further replies.
But fleeing to save his own ass shouldn't be seen as some type of "seeing the light" moment. He's still not a very nice person. And what happens to "Ares Digital"? Does this set back sending out perks another year to eighteen months?

Surely the brilliant visionary thought leader of Trek can sit down and knock out a mailing list, now that another person that was letting him down has gotten out of the way. He could even purge the list of haters, if he needs an incentive. Everyone whose address has a unicode character in it would work.
 
yes but how do you *really* feel? :guffaw:

This pretty much sums it up :techman:

This is what happens when I take a day off.

Thank you so much for listening.

Nick's rant = EPIC.............:guffaw::guffaw::guffaw:
 
In the unchanged words of the immortal Phil(osopher) Collins (for pure educational purpose only):

"Do You Know, Do You Care"

You said you would, you didn't and I wanna know why
And don't make no excuses
You promised, you promised, you better explain
Tho' I don't know what the use is
You said you could, you couldn't, now why did you lie
You made it look so easy
You did it, why do it, what was your point?
Laughing while you tease me

Oh, do you know and do you care?

I said I did, I shouldn't cos the magic will go
It happened once before
You'll see it, you'll steal it and take it away
And then come back for more
Don't say you weren't, you were 'cos I saw you myself
It's too late for your reason
You're lying, you're lying, you've done it this time
I'm sick of all the cheating

Oh, well do you know and do you care?

'Cos I watch you
oo every day I watch you pass me by
I'll get you
Yes in the end I'll get you
Just watch me try

Oh you make it hard to be hard but I'm trying my best
Cos down inside I'm burnin'
You want it, you get it, now take it and run
I'll hide how much it's hurtin'

Oh, well do you know and do you care?
Oh, well do you know and do you care?

That is quite a rant.
 
Might Tom have meant this one?

Terry McIntosh Agreed. Had an online friend really screw something up to their detriment and all they can do is blame other people for it on their Facebook posts, when it's clear that they own that one completely. Heck, I've screwed some things up in the last year... but I own that. Sure, it's easier to blame others, but it's flat out dishonest when someone doesn't own up to their mistakes. As you said, learn from it, figure out (honestly) where the mistake(s) were made so that they're not made again, and then work to improve.

Went to the mall yesterday and it was depressing to overhear so many conversations that were just... "me! me! me! they suck! Kardashian's ass! me! me!" Ugh.

EDIT: It could fit... but I'm not sure.
 
What does "sknethng" mean?
Sknethng is what you do when you prepare the hooks for meat carcasses to rest on. As in "That body of beef needs sknethng for thirty days" Or "Where's Alan? Oh, he's just sknethng those pigs that came in. Look, he's over there stood next to the cuthnalgr"
 
FYI, Terry McIntosh has left Axanar Productions. He has a post on Facebook about it. Glad he finally had some sense to leave.
He may have come to his senses now but he's acted very poorly in the recent past, I believe.

Answer to the question [by I_am_not_Herbert, btw.], why Paramount put Star Trek in the hands of JJA in the comments section (not in moderation limbo):

Want an answer? “Google/bing” >Fourth Reich< the go to wiki and enter scroll down to >weaknessesNotverordnung aka Article 38Homeland Protection GuardProtection Squadron< and watch the "fun place" it sends you. What's up with JJ Abrams in all the SyFy? Find out who his dad/granddad was/is. Let me give you a hint, "He was allegedly the head of the V2 Rocket program during WWII for the NAZI's with an alleged kill score of over 20K … Same guy did the Saturn 5 rocket for the USA (Operation Paperclip) … The guy is practically a Klingon or Romulan spy. Fun huh? BOYCOTT PARAMOUNT and TAKE STAR TREK AWAY FROM THEM!

It' not that particular post, he has posted that he has separated from Axanar at 6:41pm yesterday. Just like the posts about Alec new girlfriend, I have a policy that I don't publicly post any Facebook friends posts or messages (whether I get along with them or not) . So guys can believe me or not but I am not going to break that policy. Since this was a wall post it is not a private message, so I can at least tell you about it since its relevant to this topic, but not going to copy/paste or screenshot posts.

Some people are definitely in deep.

You mean they're full of fucking twaddle. Alec Peters is the Donald Trump of fan films, and that supreme idiocy above is the state of his supporters.

This is what happens when you destroy the immune system of an online discussion by suppressing intelligent dissent and intelligent self moderation and make everything dependent on a fearless leader. The agenda trolls find out, crash the party, and try to rescope the audience to their agendas by saying that whatever you don't like is being driven by their agenda conspiracy. Its all to hijack the energy of the audience. And there are endless numbers of agenda trolls.

As long as Axanar Productions thinks its better for their fans to be distracted, it will probably flourish. Not unlike the flood of trolls that noised-out Usenet. It can be contained, but Alec may find he wishes for the day when all he was censoring was reasonable questions, cause it will be an endless job, all attributable to him destroying the community's immune system with overcontrol.

Hah! STC's Haberkorn with a great zinger at the Axanerds deriding STC's fundraising (in a comment thread on a post on the Axanar FB page, as screenshotted by someone on the CBS/Paramount vs Axanar FB page (which is where I saw it)):

Todd Haberkorn said:
The more physical perks you have, the more cost goes towards mailing out perks and making physical perks.

Then, the more that takes away from the overall fundraising campaign whose priority is funding the actual production...hence, us having 7 full length episodes finished with a 40 piece live orchestra, an 18,000 square foot facility, the first full engineering set, and more.

One of our fears we want to avoid is being in over our head with perks and God forbid, we don't get perks out that we have offered because we don't have any money left. Or worse yet, because of perk fulfillment, we aren't able to make episodes. Wouldn't that be crazy?

I think if I had the option of a better perk or the perk of high quality, award winning episodes - I'd choose the latter.
