The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Isn't this basically the premise to the "3 Body Problem"
In which reguard?
The Trisolarians actively blocked humanities scientific progress in order to avoid further advancement during the 400 years it would take their fleet to get to Sol. Humanity didn't choose to slow down or even regress.
The San-Ti were more honest about it.
Well, sort of, they asked for help with their problem, then hamstrung Earth's progress by deceit so that they could make it over in time.
I do not remember there being such a gap between book and show but at least in the book it's earth reaching out while the one good guy on Trisolaris tells them not to.
That does sound familiar; I think I read it eight years ago so my memory is very patchy (to the extent I used the show to cover what I thought happened!).
