    Hi hi!

    I joined a few days ago and finally had a chance to post. I had been a Trek fan years ago when I watched TNG in syndication and VOY during the later seasons. But stopped watching after awhile until Star Trek (2009) released and now all I watch is TOS! :) Feels great to get back to watching Trek again.

    Hi, I'm a new one in here.
    I used to love the show when I was a kid - watched it everyday with my mum. Since then I never saw it onTV.

    Håfa Adai!

    From the South Pacific!
    Grew up with and love the Classic Star Trek. I have all Classic Star Trek Seasons on DVD.Did not get into Star Trek The Next Generation until 3rd season. I have all STTNG seasons on DVD (Interesting, I looked good in the 3rd season uniform also......). Star Trek:DS9 I have seen some shows. I planning on collecting all seasons. Star Trek Voyager loved the show, looked GREAT in the jumpsuit...(A lot of firends called me Ensign Kim when I dressed up for a "premiere" Star Trek Voyager Party). I have 3 seasons of Voyager so far. Enterprise I loved what I saw but made a major move in my life. I was heartbroken when I heard about the cancellation. I have season 4 of Enterprise but gearing up to get the rest.
    I have dressed up for many Star Trek Conventions in the Bay Area and Grand Slam when it was in Pasadena. I was a frequent show at BayCon (I lived in San Jose!). I love going to science fiction conventions in general.

    Thanks for having me!

    Hey all!

    This is the first Trek board I've been a member of in... something like 2-3 years? It's been awhile.

    Anyways! I'm a total geek and I'm looking forward to being one here on Trek BBS.

    Cheers!

    Greetings all. I just happen to stumble over this place when I couldn't sleep and well here I am. lol I grew up watching TNG as a kid and hated the fact if i missed an episode. DS9 didn't grab my attention well so i stopped watching however never stopped reading the novels. When Voyager was airing. I was to busy readjusting from the military moving my family for the billionth time. That and it came on late on a school night... So Never really got to watch it.... Finally just under a week ago i managed to by the box series and finally caught up with it.... Love it!!

    Hello everybody!

    I've been around the board for a while (I joined during the last weeks of ENT being on the air) but since I'll be a mod here but haven't posted much in this part of the board, I thought this would be the perfect place to re-introduce myself.
    I got into Star Trek at a fairly young age, I remember watching TOS reruns with my older brother. When I was in first grade I was already such a big fan I went as Spock to the carnival costume party at school.
    Ever since then, Trek has been a part of my life. I watched all the subsequent shows in their original runs here and then many times over, except for Voyager.
    I have a hard time deciding which of the shows is my favourite. I usually say Enterprise because it doesn't get much love otherwise but, with the exception of Voyager, I love them all very much.

    This is my first time moderating anything so I'm actually quite excited. :)

    I hope so, too. It's generally a friendly board, so I probably will. :)

    Took me a while to find this thread! But here I am!

    My name is Jacqueline, 21 year old, Dutch Star trek geek.

    Been a fan since 2005, back then I was hooked on the Voyager series, went to a couple of conventions, met Kate Mulgrew, Garett Wang and Robert Picardo at some point =P Actually, I unintentionally ran into Robert Picardo at three different conventions, that guy goes to a lot of them 0.0.. I've noticed he loves Opera.. I'm not too big on him though, no offense. I used to be somewhat of a Kate Mulgrew fan. I still like her, just a whole lot less than I used to. And I don't really understand why they had to kill her off in the book series, was that really necessary? OK, I will stop ranting now..

    Only recently got into the TNG series, and yeah I'm pretty much hooked again! Planning on going to FedCon with a couple friends in May, and well that's pretty much it.

    So.. What's up?

    G'day All, I've been lurking for a while, creepy, I know! I write a bit (P/C) my name is Heather Smyth. I'm an Aussie and completely obssessed with Patrick Stewart! Last Jan he gave me a kiss and a cuddle and yeah, I'm still floating somewhere near the ceiling! Happy to be here, many thanks to those responsible in keeping everything up and running.
