Nova Mist · June 10 2009, 10:45 AM

Hi everyone!

I'm Alexandra, I'm 21, and I've been a Trekker pretty much my whole life (funnily enough, it was The Animated Series which got me into "Trek" - they used to run it when I was a little girl in amongst the Saturday morning cartoons).

It's great to be a member of this forum, and I look forward to speaking with you in he future!

Another poster suggested a thread of this type and I agreed. I haven't kept up with the exact numbers of membership but if you have joined TrekBBS due to the new movie, I'd like to extend a welcome.

Feel free to post whatever comes to mind, don't be afraid to ask a question that you think someone who's been around forever has heard 50 million times. Please feel free to spread enthusiasm for the new movie as it might even become contagious. If you aren't enthuastic about the movie that's fine as well, believe it or not.

I'd appreciate it if you took the opportunity to introduce yourself if you're new, or even if you're old.

I joined TrekBBS in the summer of 1999 and have been a moderator for almost six years. I'm looking forward to this movie, TOS is my favorite Star Trek series, and I've been a fan since I was 11 (in 1991 not 1966). The other sci-fi interest of mine is the new Battlestar Galactica.

My field of work is television production which has included news interviews, digital editing, and taping sports even though I'm not a sports fan. Once you shoot a game everything else is child's play, but post-production is my personal preference.

New guy checking in. I followed a link here posted on the Sub-Odeon Star Treck web site and have been trolling for several weeks. I've been following the threads almost daily and finally decided to join up and maybe post some screen caps.

Hey y'all, I'm Michelle and I'm new to this board. I've been a member of other online communities for other fandoms so I'm not new to the message board thing. I have been a Star Trek: TNG fan since way back but the new movie totally has opened me up to the whole universe and how amazing it is. Anyway, that's my greeting, now I'm off to explore and post.

Hi, I am Phil. I am a Trekker living in the great state of Texas. Hence the name. TOS and then TNG ROCKED. I miss Voyager. I wish Enterprise had gone on..... I like the new movie and I thought DS9 was a waste of a perfectly good wormhole. If that isn't enough to get a conversation going...... Then I will add to the mix that I am a retired US Marine (81-03) and I tend to judge Star Fleet on a military level.

indranee · June 15 2009, 10:12 PM

welcome TrekSan and everyone else!

Tribbles · June 16 2009, 02:53 AM

I forgot to post an introduction here. I jumped right in about two weeks ago because I had to cast my vote for Spock in a certain thread.

I am, unfortunately, lame enough to have not discovered the awesomeness of Star Trek until after seeing the new movie. Despite mad obsessions with Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Batman, and other various nerd franchises, I couldn't be convinced to try Trek until recently. I am now trying to make amends for my gross oversight by watching TOS. How I now love that series and its goofy, shameless sense of humor!

As you might guess, I'm particularly fond of The Trouble with Tribbles.

Thanks for letting me hang out around here! Hope I'm not quite as much of a nuisance as my namesake.

Love your location listing, Tribbles!

I think you'll be fine here, just stay away from the Klingons

J. Allen · June 16 2009, 05:48 AM

As long as he avoids the engine room, he'll be no tribble at all.
