My Trekkie friend complained that they ruined Star Trek by being able to just have people stuck in the transporter buffer.

People could hack your transporter buffer and stick an army inside it just waiting to come out at the right time...

Not sure I feel the same way as him, but it was an interesting argument.

Well, there's still a limit on the buffer size. They're not designed to hold more than like 6 people. -- nm - Ender Sep 1, 09:41 2
- Based on their explanation, maybe more than six. -- nm - Beryllium Sep 1, 10:04 1
  - I expect it's probably a few more than could reasonably fit on a transporter pad, but you certainly couldn't fit an army. -- nm - Ender Sep 1, 10:19
They've been using that trope since TNG though - Roger More Sep 1, 09:39
