A Decade of Binary Goodness

How time flies.

Yes, it was ten years ago today that your old pal 1001001 joined TrekBBS. Ten years of laughter and tears, of joy and pain.

I knew very little about computers and online communities. I was on another Trek board first (I can't remember the name anymore). I honestly don't remember how I ended up here.

So many years. So many memories.

I have been a moderator in three different forums. I was even an Admin for a spell, introducing the Jeri Ryan method of closing threads.

For Old Time's Sake, Say Goodnight Jeri:

So many memories...

The Voyager Forum was a crazy place back then. da woim and The Voyager Babes always made for good times.

Staff chats with Lisa on ICQ (HA! I bet you hadn't thought about that in a long time!).

The J Team. RIP. And the Janewayan Party. RIP too. Janeway's greatness will never be forgotten.

The brief shining moment of the St. John Talbot movement.

Acquiring the nickname Digits. Not sure who that came from.

Late night porn attacks by another board.

An appearance by William Shatner. And the banning of Chase Masterson.

Whut?

That guy who was obsessed with Beverly Crusher. And the guy who was obssessed with Kes (she was brutally fired, you know).

And I believe I still hold the record (along with da woim) for most warnings in a single thread: 10. Oh, Storm Rucker, what ever became of you?

Like so many of you, this is truly my online home. I'm always here (what does that say?). I've shared my triumphs (the birth of my son, finishing my doctorate) and my troubles (the death of my sister) with people I've never met but feel like I've known all my life. This really is a great community.

So here's to all of you who "Make it So". Bless you all.

Ah, Digits, you go way back. I remember most of what you posted, but some of it is hazy. Just how old are you, old man? ;)

Anyhoo, congratulations on ten wonderful years. Here's to ten more. :D

Geek.
 
I totally don't hate you so you must be okay.

That's exactly what I've been going for. Non-hate.

:beer:

"Old enough to know what's right,
But young enough not to choose it..."


This thread should be renamed to "Ten Years of AWESOME.

Happy Anniversary, Digits!

Thanks 005. And to everyone else.

:)
 
This is my home away from home, too...

to tell you the truth...I haven't been here in a long time. I'm not sure how ended up joining this forum back in 2003, but I'm glad I did. Then I took a break from everything for awhile...and then here I am again. I don't think a lot of people remember me, but I don't really care...just glad to be back.
 
Talk about bringing back nostalgia... :beer:

Happy birthday, and thank you for all the fun and laughter.:cool:

And make sure you put in serious time again, none of that wife and kids trivia, alright. :techman:

You know what, we need a new show to get excited about, shake off some of that old rust (I certainly need to)!

Agreed! They need to get Riker and Troi back for Star Trek: Titan...

As for "serious time"...I'm here every day!







Good Lord what have I done with my life?!?!?!?

:scream:
 
I like to look at it this way, we have all achieved PhD level trek knowledge, that's what, no worse than a golfing degree. We shouldn't be ashamed to add it to our CVs. :lol:

Dr, that has a nice ring to it... oh wait, that's old hat to you.

I'll tell you a secret: it never gets old.

:lol:

I just watched the Futurama episode with TOS. I was thinking...I could kick Melllvar's ass in Trek trivia just from reading this board for ten years....
 
1010 years - hard to believe. I contributed to your memories by presenting Rucker with 4 warnings in one post. My refusal to rescind them cost me my mod-hood but Rucker was gone for good 5 weeks later. Seems like he, Stewie (who earned me my only warning) and most of the other ENT trolls all met the same fate. It has been a long time and I can't help but wonder what it will look like in another 1010 years.
