It took me three years to notice this...

very interesting. and the sallega intelectual cast has the same life span (120 years) as the borbora - and they have the same planet / atmosphere type.

borbora history suggests they are intelligent but held back by conflict, which the sallega may have been if they didnt have the worker cast to cater to their every whim. the borbora are also superstitious about the void beyond their home system, perhaps they were isolationists or splitters whos founders created the superstitions to keep them from re-uniting with their parent race.

or maybe the sallega are a group of splitters that left the home system long ago and were forgotten about.

or maybe the borbora are the result of an accident with temporal technology, which the sallega have..

or maybe the artist got lazy, and the lifespan / planet type / atmosphere type are just a coincidence.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I like this one. I had hope an explaination close to this would come, at some point, in the Enterprise series to account for the Kligon Enigma, also known as "What the (bleep) happened to your face, man?".

oh, but evil people have to be ugly.

of course, calling people evil isn't pc, but pc is at least 50% evil.

well, the idea of 'politicaly correct' is evil. the ideals it cam out of, some of those are good. i think that's a better way to put it.

Ahh don't be so politically correct narf, one of the things that annoy me about what i class as pc is this.

Someone asks for my opinion, they get it, they are offended and say it isn't politically correct, Lesson:Don't Ask for My Smegging Opinion http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif (Why do people ask you for an opinion anyway? do they hope we're all so mediocre we don't have one, i think i better feed mine sparkling water again, i think my opinions getting a bit too big and it's currently duking it out with my smaller ego)

So yeah lol, anyway why is it called politically correct, because everyone over the age of 5 knows that politics is certainly not correct! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

no, i'm talking about things like 'equal rights' and um yeah. but i'm NOT calling a manhole cover a 'personhole cover'.

Re: It took me three years to notice this...
 
Personaly, I ignore "political correctness".
People know me as an ***.
But there is a difference between being an ***, and being an offensive ***.
I do pay attention to each individual I am with and try to be the least offensive with them that I can be, according to their ideals.

And I am evil, THANK YOU very much.
