    Star Trek: Starships Model/Magazine Subscription

    I heard back from Fanhome, and I'm kind of not happy with their response. It was pretty much we'll get it in the future. They advertised the bonus items being with a specific issue when you sign up. The enclosed packing slip said I was supposed to have them. They really didn't address the...

    Star Trek: Starships Model/Magazine Subscription

    I just got the Farragut today. It had been mailed on the 14th. I didn't receive a binder, or a mug even though the packing slip says I was supposed to. I'll probably be contacting Fanhome about it I should include a picture as well to prove it to them. Last month, the Stargazer came with...

    I'm able to login there, but you might get a better response in their Discord than replying to an old thread here.

    R.I.P. James Darren

    Vic Fontaine is the reason I became a Sinatra fan. When I told that to Mr. Darren at a con he said, "I wish Frank was still alive so I could tell him that." I will miss him. RIP Mr. Darren.

    An Absent Friend

    I stopped watching as soon as I saw who wrote it.

    Should we allow for AI-generated fiction writing?

    I've been thinking things over, and I'm changing my position on this. Especially in light of recent events on this board. I don't think it should be allowed. This should be a place where our creativity is allowed to thrive. If AI writes something, and you claim it as yours, then it's just as...

    Should we allow for AI-generated fiction writing?

    I think Sojef said it best in Star Trek: Insurrection, "Our technological abilities are not apparent because we have chosen not to employ them in our daily lives. We believe that when you create a machine to do the work of a man, you take something away from the man." I've played around with...

    News A case of plagiarism

    The teacher actually lost their job, for doing the right thing. The parents were upset because "their kids wouldn't do that" when they got caught. The parents went to the school board, and the school board backed the parents over their employee. Over twenty teachers quit at the end of the...

    News A case of plagiarism

    I'm still mad about this, and shocked. I'm not sure how he thought that this was an okay thing to do. It isn't. There was a situation at the high school I went to about two years after I graduated when students were caught plagiarizing. It didn't end well for the teacher. However, this...

    Starship Reykjavík - Early Warning

    A fitting conclusion. Well done. I enjoyed the whole story very much.

    Intrepid Update

    I can sympathize with your vision loss, and I'm glad to read that the surgery worked for you. My vision issues can not be corrected by surgery, and I am having to use magnification and a screen reader to function on the computer. I had to take medical leave as well, so I totally understand...

    Mark R. Gaebler

    To the OP, this isn't how you go about getting a pitch meeting with Paramount/CBS. You claim you want a hearing, but that's for legal proceedings. What you really want is a pitch meeting. I don't work in the industry, but in my own studies of how the industry works, I've come to realize that...

    Starship Reykjavík - Early Warning

    I like this so far. I really like that it takes place in 2321. Looking forward to reading more.

    CBS/Paramount sues to stop Axanar 2 - Electric Boogaloo-Fanboys gone WILD-too many hyphens

    I was also taken. There was no sign of the con at the time, but I was taken. My contribution was to make a fan flim, not an independent Star Trek feature, and certainly not for a studio. I got the same email from Ares Studios earlier this week. I can remember being on this board being...

    Starship Reykjavík – Conduct Unbecoming

    I finally had a chance to read what's posted so far. Very enjoyable, a rogue Excelsior-class starship, and the Gorn. That's going to make things very interesting. Looking forward to more.

    Game Star Trek Resurgence - new Star Trek videogame announced

    I finished the game. I enjoyed it from a story standpoint. It really needs a patch. I think the way Resurgence was done is a great format for Star Trek games. I'd give it 7.5/10. I think I'm going to play it again, and make a few different choices. There are some I wouldn't change.

    Game Star Trek Resurgence - new Star Trek videogame announced

    Well, I've had an easier time with Resurgence over the last couple of days. I've figured out the transporter minigame, and gotten past it multiple times. It was frustrating for a bit. I still see some choppy cutscenes. The game needs a patch. Overall, from a story standpoint, I'm enjoying...

    Game Star Trek Resurgence - new Star Trek videogame announced

    I finally got past that transporter minigame, It was frustrating, but somehow I did it. I'm noticing choppy cutscenes as well. This game really needs a patch. I'm turning it off for the day.

    Game Star Trek Resurgence - new Star Trek videogame announced

    I got past the part I was stuck on, but I had to use a gameplay video on YouTube to figure out exactly what to put the tricorder on. Then I had to run back and forth between my console and the computer, and then do what was in the video. I was able to do more after that without following the...

    Game Star Trek Resurgence - new Star Trek videogame announced

    I'm playing on the PS5. This game started out great, but now it's frustrating me. I've restarted it several times unintentionally because of how the controls are set up. When using the triocrder I can find 2 out of 3 things I'm supposed to scan easily, but I'm wasting time looking for the...
