*Not " Stargate" order - star date order.
Welcome Fellow Trekkies! The GTD Get to Know You thread
- Thread starter Alidar Jarok
- Start date
Hello! I am a new member of Trekbbs, having joined a couple of days ago. I am 18 and have been a Star Trek fan since 3rd grade. My favorite show has to be Voyager, though I love Lower Decks too! I also love starship modeling. I finished making DS9 and a Romulan Warbird this summer. I just started college and have my Klingon flag flying in my dorm room. I can't seem to find anyone who likes Star Trek at my college besides my brother. I really want to start a Star Trek club, but I have no idea where to start. Anyway, I look forward to seeing what's out there on Trekbbs.
A BBS brings back some memories!
I'm almost exactly as old as TNG (A single-digit number of episodes had aired before I was born, and my parents rushed home from the hospital to catch that week's.), and I've been hooked on Star Trek ever since.
I remember my first exposure to the wider internet was someone showing me a post on one of the old modem-based BBSs, and I visited the startrek.com so often I got it blacklisted at school.
I have a passing (semi-professional) interest in online community formation and evolution, and I've experienced a number of different iterations of that phenomenon in the context of Trek, so I'm looking forward to observing and participating here.

I keep wanting to ask where the Warez are if this is a BBS? Games? Vids? Software?
context - I phone dialed into BBS sites with my whopping fast 2400 baud modem back in the 80s. Took all night for a few hundred meg movie - most likely interrupted by someone wanting to use the phone - or a few minutes for DOS games.
