It seems as if my gut, as always, is correct. It's amazing how easy it is to identify SDN member on other boards these days. Though I have to say I’m more then a bit surprised this thread is still around. I guess circle-jerking is just that fun, eh?
You are after all, "an adult scientist", and I'm... let's see if I can remember all this correctly... a creationist, yeah, that's one, a kiddie, mmm, that was the second thing, but what else was there...? I swear there was a third thing.
Someone, please, remind me. And feel free to use your imagination, facts, like always, are just a pesky nuisance.
I don't think I've even said that. For one thing, I'd never confuse coilguns with railguns like you just did. And I can't say I recall the Space Marine part either. In fact, I actually think that's something you just made up. But hey, that’s no biggie around here, is it?General Schatten wrote:l33teltard has trolled here and at SB before as well, frankly he's bloody idiot.

I wouldn't say that. I'm a fan of FR too, but the Drow don't seem terribly wanked to me. They got slaughtered pretty badly at the Battle of Mithril Hall, and the narration itself states that while they're good fighters, they know jack squat about how to fight a conflict at anything above squad level (yet another reason the U.S./Britain/Russia/Insert First World Country of Choice pisses all over them).Elfdart wrote:The guy is a Forgotten Realms fan?
Any drow outside of Greyhawk are pure wank. It's like the difference between Jango, Boba Fett and the clones in the movies, and the M'ast'ur'ba'tion'alor'ia'ns in Traviss' books.

As for Mith, as I tell others, he's proven himself capable of rational argument most of the time, he just is a bit defensive about Trek and DnD, though that is changing, and his is slowly getting better (despite the occasional regression). It was a few months ago, but he was explaining to Ryan (Forget his SDN name, but he was the kid that came here a few weeks ago spouting off about the Timeship) as to why Star Wars crushes Trek.

I can remember when the dark elves were powerful heavies in the Greyhawk campaign. Nothing more, nothing less -just as the late great Gary Gygax wrote them. They had a city under the Hellfurnace Mountains, but they weren't the only inhabitants and arguably weren't even the most powerful creatures of the Underworld. But Gygax was shoved out by TSR's new owner and his creations (especially the drow) were bastardized and pillaged worse than the MGM film library in the late 1980s. But it got worse...
...along came R.A. Salvatore with his Extra-Emo Elric clone, and you have some of the most masturbatory crap in the history of sci-fi/fantasy. It's Traviss' boner'oa multiplied by post-OT Klingons, with a hefty dose of emo thrown in for good measure and Jesus Christ Almighty does it suck!

It was about Trekmiss. Darkstar got his panties in a twist about it, and tried to make a shitty Star Wars version. He started a flamewar, and was banned. Out of "fairness", I was banned too, but mine was temporary.Aratech wrote:IIRC, it had to do with venom spouted during the Trekmiss stuff, either that, or the Last Bastion stuff.

Trying to explain why you avoid facts? A simpler explanation is that you're a mendacious little douchecock.Someone, please, remind me. And feel free to use your imagination, facts, like always, are just a pesky nuisance.

The first books to feature the drow were the G-series, written by Gygax (released in 1978, IIRC). The G and D-series were the first published modules for D&D. At the end, it turns out that a drow noble house led by Eclavdra is behind the giants' attacks.

There are several reviews of the G and D-series (where the PCs go underground to take on Eclavdra and her followers) over at www.dragonsfoot.org

The D&D 3.5Edition setting is still Greyhawk, I think. It's definitely not Eberron, though; Warforged aren't in the core books. I don't think 4th Edition is Greyhawk anymore, since they're changing so much, but again, Eberron doesn't seem to be the core setting. The previews don't associate Halflings with dinosaurs and Warforged are still out of the core.General Schatten wrote:No, they switched over to Eberron a couple years ago, IIRC.
