There sure is a lot of earth-related crap floating around in the Delta Quadrant.

On the other side of the galaxy, 70,000 light-years from earth, what are the odds that you’d run into the alien race responsible for the tattoo on your head. Odds would have to be incalculable.

And other characters just happen to run into things that are personal to them.
-Sevens runs into the ship that carried her to the delta quad
-Belanna is reaquainted with the missile she helped create, and later, some Klingons that wanna worship her.
-Even Neelix finds other Talaxians closer to the alpha quad

Then, there's:
-Finding Amelia Earhart
-Earth Borgs stranded on a planet
-Meeting the Voth
-Running into the Equinox.
-And even some Ferengi.

All of this is laid out while in a straight-line course back the the Alpha Quadrant. Not saying I didn’t enjoy these episodes, but c’mon, that was really over-doing it.

Same story with Red Dwarf really ,
they encounter all sorts of human made stuff despite having been headed out into deep space for 3 million years.
Holoships, gelfs, those killer cyborg things , Psirens , prison ships ... even the postman.

If it weren't remarkable they wouldn't have made a tv-show about it, would they?

I think this is the first time I've seen a post from a deleted user so soon after it posted.

User [deleted] posted this 30 minutes ago, along with other replies on this board.

Who posts a bunch of replies, then deletes their account right after? Weird.

There is a poster who deletes his account *minutes* after posting. I suspect that MC allows an unlimited number of accounts from the same email, otherwise it would be cumbersome to keep creating new emails to create an MC account for one post, then delete.

I may have to try it with one of my spam email accounts.

I suppose if you ran your own email server, you can generate as many as you need. I would think they'd get suspicious of the domain eventually.

What I want to know is why? To what end?

[–] strntz (12773) 4 years ago

Just to be different, to have your MC name as [deleted]? Who knows? The world is full of odd ducks.
