You notice every time you raise an old thread we ignore your point and just atart talking trash?
Don't you realise what happened? By resurrecting the TR-116 thread, he unleashed the massive off-topic energies that had been building up there. With nowhere else to go, the energy went into his account. Now every time he posts there's a small bit of pure TR-116 in his posts, causing us all to go wildly off topic.

Even nuclear weapons are no match for the power of TR-116. There is only one weapon in existance that can stop him now.
Bring forth.....the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch!

Took me a while to remember, I only saw it once, and that was back in 11th grade.

I myself feel that this is a job for the Emperor to solve. By His light we can destroy this infection by reminding everyone of how much they hate my kicks about the God-Emperor and then allow someone to drag us back to topic. Its so stupid it might even work!

Twas my intention from the beginning. By raising the dead threads, we may now focus our insanity here, and actually discuss the topics at hand on our "newer" subjects. :Nerd:

Yeah, I doubt it'll work. We'll see.

Just out of curiousity before we fly off topic again, what do you guys think would happen?

I imagine it would work, but less effeciently. I haven't seen anything to suggest there's a specific position the nacelles have to be in.

I think Basics even showed the ship at warp with the nacelles in the "impulse" position. The biggest problem would probably be if they tried to go to warp normally, without realising that the pylon was damaged. I can't imagine that flying with one nacelle up and one down could be healthy.

I see it as trying to drive a convertable with the top half down for some reason. I don't know why that analogy works with me though.

Perhaps there's some sort of system to prevent one nacelle rising if the other doesn't?
