Rotating Stations

well if the entire station rotates it would look stupid if there were some parts of it that didn't. it would look like some sort of animation error or something

Babylon 5 this aint and it WOULD look wrong, seeing as how the fed starbase (spacedock) is a cone-like shape what part of that is gonna rotate and what part aint? same question can be said for most of the stations.

Okay fine, I'll drop it.
I believed it would look good but since no-one will even try I guess will you all never truely know if it would look bad or good.

stations don't rotate in the shows, it wpould have no use, since the gravity comes from the plating, not rotation.

Please remember that everyone is entitled to their opinions. I respect yours enough to say yeah okay so it might not look so good but you have to understand my point of view which is we never know unless we try it.
Your forgiven. Here have a cookie.
Stations do rotate in the show and as Ryan said, just real slow.
