    I'd like to take credit, but I was born with it.

    Nope. I wasn't in the Navy. I just attended the commissioning ceremony for the Churchill. He is a hero of mine.

    Okay, let's see here....

    @Planet9 please consolidate your replies from now on into one post.

    @jhon if you're just here to advertise, your time here will be very short.

    Carry on...

    Hi everyone!
    I am a scientist (yes, because of Trek), my first episode was TNG conspiracy (I actually became a fan thanks to censors editing out Remmick's gory death), and I was the first member of the star trek movie forum 10 years ago. Is anyone else from those good old days here?

    the Star Trek related parts are:
    • a logo which Mike designed for NASA (scroll down to "Emblems for NASA’s Exploration Systems Mission Directorate", it's the "Exploration" one)
    • "to boldly go" in old school Star Trek font below the whole thing.

    Heya, my name is Max and unfortunately only got into trek in the recent years, watching through everything in aired order and currently on Enterprise, but have been watching Disco as it comes out.

    I also play STO and a lot of other games a bunch.

    Hello! I don’t know how long this site has been up...a few years, it looks like. I happened to be searching for a picture of William Shatner and this website came up. Glad to be here, finally.

    Hey All,
    I'm (mostly) new to this forum--I haven't been on in over a decade...so, new again?
    I'm an actor and writer located in Los Angeles, originally from Miami.
    I was raised on the TOS movies (80's child) but watched and loved every subsequent television and movie series as they premiered.
    The first ST film I ever saw in the theater was Star Trek V--yeah, just my luck, but as a consequence I now have a soft spot in my heart for it.
    Now I have my own kids and am eagerly indoctrinating them into the Star Trek universe.
    Looking forward to getting to know everyone on the boards!

    Hello Fellow Trek Fans,

    I been a fan since TOS went into syndication in the 70s. I have seen every Trek episode and movie. I am a big fan of TOS, The Animated Series, DS9 and DISCO. I like TNG but not as much as the series I just mentioned. I am not a great admirer of VOY, ENT or the Kelvin Timeline but find some entertainment value in them.

    I like other science fiction and have been a comic book fan most of my life.

    I became a fan of MMA when I was surfing channels in 2011 and caught a replay of an Anderson Silva fight. Grew up watching boxing but now love watching MMA more.

    I work as a Computer Specialist.

    I hope to engage in some polite intelligent conversations here.

    Live long and prosper!

    Welcome to the Newbies! I joined late last year as a Christmas present to myself. It's like taking an extended Star Trek vacation. Keep it light and happy. I love "meeting" new friends with similar interests. Great site!
