@mymyharlow More like a big no-no in any line of work.

@ryank8843 i hope your not joking. galaxy class ships have two bridges, the main bridge at the top of the saucer section, and the battle bridge at the top of the engineering section. those two sections can separate, allowing the saucer section with the civilians to get a chance to get away (though the saucer section doesnt have warp drive) like picard used it, or the way i'd use it as a tactical advantage in combat to split an enemy ship's defenses and focus. but picard was probably right.
"I'll snap you back" in future talk translates as "I'll put your ankles behind your head and cover you in my Space Seed so fast that your Jeffires tube will become distended"
@robsherrard Yeah. She is one of those characters who should have shown up again in DS9 o even Voyager.
DS9 messed around with Vash, Lwaxana, Tom Riker, etc., when they should have continued the storylines of Shelby, Capt. Benjamin Maxwell, Lore (joining the Dominion rather than being dismantled), Sela Yar (a great addition to Dominion War Romulan storylines), Captain Tomalok, etc.
Plus the only episode Kurn came in was a shitty one! DS9 = tons of great opportunities lost.
@kmg4 Perhaps, but then the problem would be that DS9 would be risking havign the image of being dependent on TNG storylines. In other words, people would think that DS9 is using TNG characters because they cannot develop their own storylines.
@Amar7605 Given how much DS9's ratings rose *after* Worf came, that is not a bad thing. Stories that showed Shelby, Maxwell, Sela Yar, Lore escaping to join with the Dominion, etc. would have been great.
Truth be told, Follow the chain of command and you dont get in shit. Most commanding officers and managers in civ life as long as they are good the are willing to listen to you and offer opinion and good open dialog. Right or wrong Command structure is very important to any organization. Shit can roll up hill if given an opportunity to do so. Most in my position know this and listen to our subs and know that there are smart persons making our job easier. Its common sense to do so.
This where the term Snapback came from in Marvel vs. Capcom 2. It makes sense, since Snapback forces your current opponent off the field and forces in one of his tag partners.
Thats how it is u have a person who wants 2 move up as fast as she can a and forgets about going through the steps n the person does not realize that she or he is being rude and offense and just impolite to every 1 and she or he just thinks of them self . If should could she would step on any Admiral if she could be an Admiral above all Admirals the top 1. u have ppl like that in life. n also may b Ryker thought his job was threaten. wat was her real name didn't c her do anything after dat
Some people don’t seem to get, that the very point of the Shelby character, was to be hated. Hey, what do you do with evil but good-looking women? You become the only man more dominant than even her. Which will make you crazy attractive to her. And then you hate-ſuck her as hard as you can. :P Chances are big that’s exactly what she craves too. (BTW: Same thing with men. It’s just that there’s always a dominatrix there for them.)
The only men who are bothered by a strong, confident woman are the ones who don't have any confidence themselves. They're losers, much like everyone here who called her a bitch for taking control.
@CyborgNinja7 Well just gonna go out on a limb here but i think there are probably some men who are bothered by a strong, confident woman who is trying to ruin their career and interfere with their lives.
@Nonsensei436 she wasn't ruining his career, if she pushed him out of fist officer he gets his own ship as captain. but the new ship sucks. prob more wesleys on it
@Aloradelyda The ship he was supposed to command, the Melbourne, got wasted at Wolf 359 so he would have probably been killed in that battle...with a whole bunch of Wesleys. But not to worry, when he took command of the Titan in Nemesis he got stuck with the real deal (per deleted scene).
As has been said before.................. Riker needed to take the bitch and put it to her good, through and relentlessly 'til she was busting sweat off her back, drooling uncontrollably from her mouth and putting out more love stench from her hairy meat curtains than a swamp........................
This was from the episode "Best of both worlds" part 1 or 2. I jes loved the way Riker wuz givin her a hard time. I wasn't happy when he made her first officer cuz he wuz bein light on her then.
i usually don't really like Riker when he acts like a dick, but man... this bitch deserved it so bad. fuck Shelby. GO RIKER!!! should have punched her in the mouth too.
Shelby had a bigger penis than WORF. Fuck I hated that character, I was so glad when Picard came back and they booted her fucking ass off the ship again ...
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I like Shelby. She gives that prick Riker a run for his money.
I mean, I'm sure Jonathan Frakes is a wonderful human being and all, but Riker can be an insufferable asshole, lording over the rest of the crew. He's got the tall, hairy He-Man look - as Scott Adams has pointed out, promotions tend to go to tall men with good hair - but he can't even defend the Enterprise against a Klingon antique.
Then again, maybe he's just really horny and is turning on his asshole mode to see how she responds.
i agree, riker's a prick sometimes. he's just kinda moody. sometimes he's totally nice, and sometimes he's just a complete douchebag. i think he's insecure that he's not in complete command of the ship and takes it out on those beneath him. lolz.
A klingon antique that had access to the enterprises shield frequencies, therefore rendering them useless. And as I recall the klingons involved in that battle were all killed, except Worf.
I talked to a friend of mine who is a black belt in Karate and she confirmed what I thought. Basically what he is threatening to do is grab her by the arm, or more likely the shoulder, and pull back so hard so fast she will get whiplash. He's basically saying, "Try this again and I'll put a stop to it damn quick."
Remember that Picard holds a lot of power in the federation despite being only a Captain. Reputation and connections can elevate a person above others of the same rank.
No, take a look... 2 gold and 1 black pip. She's a lt. commander, Riker is a FULL commander, 3 gold pips. She's got special duties in this ep, but he still outranks her by a full grade, AND he's the first officer of the ship irrespective of rank.
@kmg4 At this point she was a Lt.Cdr and so was one rank below Riker. However even if they had been the same rank, Riker is the XO of the ship. As such day to day operational command and all personnel report to him. This includes any visiting officers. The reason Shelby was given latitiude was because she was a specialist in her field. She needed this "talk" to be reminded that specialist or not there is a chain of command to be followed. Same as modern day navy.
