What would you have rated The Quickening from Chuck's system?

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

Maybe it's just so simple a matter as those who agree with him on this site flocking to this thread to back it up and defend him. Okay then, in that respect, I admit I was out of line. I apologize.

Though "never wanting to watch it again" is still vague, I'm sorry, but I'm sticking to my guns on that. The reverse is true. You don't like it, you don't have to comment on this thread, because it's really meant for people who feel it should have been rated higher. People like me, in other words.

Wait, so now you're also telling people who don't agree with you to stay out of this thread? Who the hell are you, and why do you think you can talk to other forum members like this?

Also, the subject of the thread asks a question. For some of us, the answer is low.

I'm NOT TELLING. You can still comment if you want. YOU'RE the one who's escalating this even though I admitted I stepped out of line. But seriously, what is the point in commenting on a thread where you agree with everything SF Debris said?

If you're gonna be that way, then just ignore me, and I'll ignore you.

It's really tough for you, when people disagree with you, isn't it.

Only on this subject. But whatever. I'm officially quitting this thread. Do whatever you guys want.

You are inferring motivations you cannot know.

People can agree without defending someone else.

Likewise they can disagree without attacking someone else.

Yukaphile, get the fuck over yourself. For every good post or thread you make, you seem to make 2 just melting down or going off on people. Calm. Down.

I had to look up that episode to even remember what it was. And then I had to re-read the summary entirely coz the blurb confused it in my mind with two other "Bashir is on an alien planet trying to cure the locals" so it's not really speaking great to the episode to begin with.

And having read the summary I barely remember that episode. Like, I've watched all of DS9 several times, the entire thing. And for the episode to have left me so little an impression, I feel a 4 or 5 seems accurate? I'll prolly have to re-watch it again to give it a fairer shake.

Well I remember Paradise. I dislike the ending, but Paradise has an imminently loathable hate sink villain, so flaws aside, it at least left an impression, which sure as hell puts it ahead of this one.
