Ok..so some of you were around back in the SFOL days, when it became and issue with the new owner of the Star Trek properties, that people were using 'copyrighted' words without their approval or paying royalties. AOL was told to tell the sims in their gaming forum, that we had to cease and desist using certain names and words, so many sims and races changed spellings or names to comply. In turn, the RSE Talon, became the RES Talon. The first noting that it was a Romulan Star Empire ship, the changed name Rihannsu Empire Ship. Having had one of the hosts from way back before I even came on pop in to say hello recently, and comment on the name still being changed...I wanted to ask you all what you thought. Ok...and this also will depend on how much trouble it will be to get it fixed on the website and such, as if it's too much trouble, we'll just let it be.

 

So..Talon crew...what's your opinion?

Doesn't really matter to me one way or the other. With Starfleet ships it would be crazy to be something other than U.S.S., but I don't really remember any mention of a header before a ship name in any of the TV shows about Romulan ships. Not to mention whether it's RSE or RES it's still the English version, I imagine the Rihannsu would be something different anyway.

Speaking as one of the old SFOL'ers....

 

To be honest, I don't have a prefence as to whether or not we're RES or RSE or ERS or ESR...or whatever combination of letters in front of Talon. As long as it has some sort of meaning and not some random alphabetical selection, I'm cool.

 

Now if you were suggesting we change the name from RES/RSE Talon to RES Creampuff, I would raise serious and vocal objection. (Or any variation there of...)

No preference from me either. Though to be honest, I didn't even know that the official acronym was RSE for a Romulan starship.
