:::"Condemning" him isn't an option, and as always, any citation is better than nothing. But we should approach his reports with a healthy skepticism and try to uncover his primary sources. --[[User:April Arcus|April Arcus]] 01:52, 16 April 2006 (CDT) | :::"Condemning" him isn't an option, and as always, any citation is better than nothing.

::::Probably because I'm half asleep and I've been watching Apocalypse Now reruns all day, but my patience with Koenigrules is running thin. I honestly don't know why he is considered a more important news source than us by GalacticaStation, he usually just reports stuff based on the things we've seen. Look, really I've had nothing against him before this at all. But like dominoes, I saw all the news sites reporting his *interpretation* of a poorly sourced script as if it was fact, and I'm annoyed--->regardless: I don't want to "condemn" him, I want to know if our official position is that his report is lousy, so that when I'm on the official site, I can say "at BattlestarWiki, we analyzed this and decided he didn't know any more than we did", because if anyone doesn't want me to say that, I will not. But it comes up in conversation alot, but I thought the right thing would be to check here first. ****Brilliant idea. I should try to get an interview with Subject2Discussion, to hype the Golden Toaster Awards which I am a spokesperson for, and mention in passing that KR was a little...overzealous in his reporting. Overzealous is a better word than condemn. The horror....the horror....--[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 02:12, 16 April 2006 (CDT) | ::::Probably because I'm half asleep and I've been watching Apocalypse Now reruns all day, but my patience with Koenigrules is running thin.

::::::Agreed. But we can achive a consensus position. I also agree with what Joe just said. "Koenigrules said it" isn't a source. For the past year I've heard him making interviews on Subject2discussion, but I never really questioned who he was. I assumed he was near production or something. I have the sinking suspicion that he's just a prominent Galacticastation member. --[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 13:11, 16 April 2006 (CDT) | ::::::Agreed.
