    Oh good gravy, people. This again? There’s a big freaking red sign right there. What else could “SPOILERS” mean?

    It means the thread has flaps that can be projected in order to create drag and reduce speed.

    Don't go into a Spoilers thread before you've seen the episode LOL There are other general picard threads for spoiler free discussions about what might happen in the episode.

    People have been posting untagged spoilers the moment the episode drops since Episode 1.

    I don't remember anyone getting upset in the first 6 episode threads.

    If they want to show effective audience viewing consequence Vadic will kill Sydney, that's how I would have written it. Killing random unknown Ensign, Lieutenant , not so much

    It was 100% according to the board rules. But still a massive dick-move.

    @KennyB and I have already ruled that the pic being posted last week was fair and legal. We are dropping the bitching about it now, or I'll start handing out Warnings.

    This is about people posting spoilers BEFORE the episode drops.

    IDK - Once I KNOW an episode has dropped, I don't come into one of these threads until AFTER I've watched it. :shrug:

    The threads like these have a big SPOILERS tag attached - and as they're for discussing the episode; if someone wants to post something as they're watching (you can pause and screencap using various methods); who am I to say no?

    Again the thread has a warning, so if you don't want to be spoiled; don't like discussing an episode as it airs - exercise a little self restraint, and don't click on the thread until you've seen the episode.

    I want lore to stay evil. I don't need another evil character redemption story.

    He was about to surrender to the Ferengi in “The Last Outpost”, before realizing they were also snared by the Tkon. That’s twice in the first four episodes, you should have seen the angry letters in the official fan club magazine, lol.

    Episode hasn’t dropped, but after rewatching Dominion.


    But could Jack be the equivalent to the Emissary but for the Pah Wraiths (or however that is spelled).

    What is the payoff for the audience if Jack is a Pah-Wraith?

    I know people are pointing to the red eyes but I really don't see how the Pah Wraiths fit into this season. That just feels completely off to me. And why have Picard's own son be an emissary of evil? That makes no sense.

    Sometime evil destroys evil because they don’t like competition. Or like when the Joker took out the Red Skull. He’s a criminal, but an American criminal!

    In the lap of squalor I assure you.
    The world together shares their hate for the Nazis.

    I'm remembering poorly this once where the Joker saved the Multiverse by killing Lex Luthor at a critical moment, over a petty personal grudge.
