Enough with the Star Trek crap alright! It has nothing to do with Miranda or Mass Effect.

Calm the **** down. We are merely discussing something else for Miri. We do not have to be caught up with what YOU are talking about.<_<

This is the Miranda character thread dude. Not some TNG post for you to 'speculate on what kind of starfleet ship Miranda would fly.' 

You're more than welcome to leave and go to some other thread or network to post this stuff. 

Yet we can't talk about a mere crossover with Miri involved, in a Miri Thread? You know what's sad? That some of you would report someone for something this small. We were minding our own business talking about this, as you were with your discussion. I do not have to follow one discussion at a time. That would be unfair in a place like this. I shouldn't be reported because I still mention Miri. It's not harming anyone.

If I wanted to talk about a crossover involving I could. Why would be reported for that? It's not spam, because it still involves Miri. Why should I be limited because YOU say so? As long as I'm still talking about Miri, there shouldn't be a problem.

That’s a two-way piece of advice.

Yeah it is. But I'm not the one posting things that have absolutely nothing to do with this thread.

Also, my TNG is on topic, so shutup.

If you're implying what I think you're implying then maybe, but I'm more afraid of the AI going nuts.

I HOPE you're implying what I think you're implying.

While that may technically be true for a couple of those posts, I think you're overreacting a bit. It's... no big deal.

Come on, he was just making a suggestion for a cross-over and we were discussing specifics. 
I don't see how that is so off-topic to get mad about it...

[Skullheart]

I might be the only guy in this thread who hasn't seen any thing about Star Treck.

But I would like to see Miranda in a Imperial uniform from SW.

2.
of or pertaining to a governmental or political system, principle, or practice in which individual freedom is held as completely subordinate to the power or authority of the state, centered either in one person or a small group that is not constitutionally accountable to the people.
3.

Bold is mine.

People on the internet should be forced to actually look words up before commenting on them...

It really isn't hurting anyone is it? I really cannot understand why talking about a crossover involving Miri IN a MIRANDA Thread would anger people. It's sad. I can understand if people got angry if I didn't mention Miri at all, but she is in the subject. A sometimes other people talk about Miri that doesn't involve ME3 as well. I won't be the target this time. Hell, some post perverted pictures.

Definitely agree. Understanding the explanations would be great, too.

Do I need to spell it out? Whether or not there is one person in charge is irrelevant to whether a society or group is authoritarian.

I just saying how Perfect Miri would be in something like Starfleet. I'm using my Imagine: Something some of you who forever object should try. Sorry for insulting, but damn....

whoa, who set whose pants on fire? can we all just calm down? I don't see anything wrong about discussing Miri in other universes, since she is center person in those discussions... Its not like anyone is wondering what ship Shepard would have in ST universe... now that would be waaaay off topic

Yes.  When you make what is on its face a stupid, terrible arguement, then you need to explain why we are all mistaken and you are right.  Especially when I posted a definition specifically linking authoritarian to one person or a small group and you're saying that's irrelevant.

Because right now you're arguement is so bad it's literally killing kittens in some parts of the world.

It wasn’t my argument.

If you find it that difficult to follow along a relatively simple discussion thread, perhaps you should cool it with the insults?

Edit: please, do review the series of posts. I’ll wait.

Edit2: I really have no idea how Taboo suddenly jumped to talking about Control at that point, anyway, but those shifts happen a lot. Y’all having these imaginary arguments in your head does make it hard to follow sometimes…

Your arguement continues to kill kittens.

Back to Miranda related things, this girls does an -amazing Miranda as a cosplay.

*sincerely seeking clarification of the point you are making in a non-hostile manner*

While it's true that multiple people can be in charge in an authoritarian system, does that really contradict the idea that the Control ending has authoritarian vibes? It just happens to be one entity in this case, no?

Correct. The single person is not the determinant.

Or, in very simple terms: all societies in which one person is in charge are not authoritarian.


@flemm: No, Control can absolutely result in an authoritarian society. But, again, the one person isn’t the cause, it’s a symptom.

This is a Mass Effect thread. Keep it Mass Effect related. If you want to make your own thread, go somewhere else. please. And I'm saying this to everybody now. We are ALL starting to get off topic here.

[MASSEFFECTfanforlife101]

It's not off topic if you are still talking about the very Woman who this Thread is about.

That's so funny. 

I guess Cuba, North Korea, Iran, Iraq, The Soviet Union, The Mao-era PRC, Syria, Libya, National Socialist Germany, and a whole host of African and Latin American countries were all republics then right?
