L. Ron Hubbard:

The head of the Galactic Federation (76 planets around larger stars visible from here) (founded 5,000,000 years ago, very space opera) solved overpopulation (250 billion or so per planet, 178 billion on average) by mass implanting.

...

When through with his crime loyal officers (to the people) captured him after six years of battle and put him in an electronic mountain trap where he still is. "They" are gone. The place (Confederation) has since been a desert. The length and brutality of it all was such that this Confederation never recovered. The implant is calculated to kill (by pneumonia etc) anyone who attempts to solve it. This liability has been dispensed with by my tech development.

...

One can freewheel through the implant and die unless it is approached as precisely outlined. The "freewheel" (auto-running on and on) lasts too long, denies sleep etc and one dies. So be careful to do only Incidents I and II as given and not plow around and fail to complete one thetan at a time.[/QB]

Energy-based superweapons aren't really all that scary. Nuclear weapons are just about the maximum of scary already. My worries are that clean and remote fighting will destigmatize the horrors of war because those horrors won't be inflicted on the side using the best and brightest technology, but this is more a concern for unmanned vehicles and such than new weapons.

Ef: the program seems to put that link there, becasue when I look at the "properties" of that image, I see the correct link. When I alter this in the code, the image still can't be found and I get that "torn image" icon.

Aran: i don't think I really understand what you said. Do you mean I should make a seperate wiki?

To all of you: What do you guys prefer: I pop-up which one can just click away, or just leave open, but hide behind the main browser winow, or have ads at the top or bottom of the page?

sorry for my first post i offer no explanation other than that was my first thought.

Fair enough... I think the sarcasm was rather evident in it, personally.

Everyone's hands = wrong hands? Sounds about right to me... what's the current ratio of people who use these things for good to people who use them for evil/extortion/etc?

There is nothing in the CoC against sharing an account, but problems might arise with double posting.

If someone wants to add to the topic but their account already holds the last post, they can just edit "their" post.

GF4 is extremely likely after A4. A5 is extremely likely after GF4. A revamped Nethergate (Jeff claimed that this would include "new material") is likely somewhere in the middle of that or afterwards.

That's what people said about dynamite. And the atomic bomb. Heck, people probably said that about the invention of bronze. Haven't people realized that making war more deadly doesn't deter people? It just makes it more deadly!

Interestingly enough, it seems more people see both Drakey and Stareye as the bad cop than the good cop.

You could just add in a "stagnant user deletion period" where if an account goes stagnant (whether that means foul or unused is up to you) for a period of time it gets deleted.
