I sometimes wonder what it'd be like if I had registered much earlier. I had been lurking for years. I was aware of this place back in my undergrad days, then started lurking a bit after college. I wouldn't have gone with
Finn since I wouldn't have had the dog yet...
A lot of people have gone. I remember
Galleywest constantly winning the TNG caption this contests,
Amelie snapping at posters in the Voyager forum,
Naraht's Dr. Crusher threads and
Captain Gandalf's photoshop art thread (the current one is a mere shadow of what it once was).
I browse the trek forums (most posts are caption this ones) when not in Misc and TNZ. I've been noticing more and more unfamiliar newbies. 2006 seems so a long time ago now.
