Your pain runs deep.
Let us explore it... together. Each man hides a secret pain. It must be exposed and reckoned with. It must be dragged from the darkness and forced into the light. Share your pain. Share your pain with me... and gain strength from the sharing.

    the Kes? last I heard they were still a minor political power located on the edge of Federation space. Their membership was declined due to their war with the Prytt. AFAIK they haven't been mentioned in STO at all.

    as for the link... bleah..

    My answer was about to be...STO wise, we'd be seeing her great-great grandkids, at least.

    As for that link--not going to speculate.

    The one thing they never really got into was how quinn had an ocampa secretary basically but its wierd being they never really told any story to that but yet it seems like when we went to the delta quadrant that part didn't exist lol.

    Yeah, that's never been explained, and they DIDN'T change her when they redid ESD.

    Only 6 years older than me, but time has not been kind to her. She looks like she's in her 50s. Aged like an Ocampan.

    The more important question is, why should I give a flying TRIBBLE?

    Well I think it's safe to say we won't be seeing an appearance of Ms. Lien in STO. :p I don't know what happened to her but whatever it was, events have not been kind. Lets hope she can turn her life around for her own sake.
    If something is not broken, don't fix it, if it is broken, don't leave it broken.

    Frankly, I hope we DO see her in STO. Looks like she could use the work. C'mon Craptic, throw her a bone. What if someone did a kickstarter to pay her for STO voiceover work? Time for the Star Trek community to be as compassionate as they claim to be.

    Really sad to see this on several levels... The headlines're making it sound like she was deliberately exposing herself to children, like some kind of pedophile or those predatory teachers who f*ck their students, when instead, it's just a case that she was acting like the white-trash we see getting tazed for mouthing off on Cops... On the one hand, sad to find out that she's the kind of person who would behave like that, but on the other, who hasn't been a bit embarrassing at one time or another...? :disappointed:

    You are just a constant ray of sunshine here on the STO official forums, aren't you?
    You really want to go there? Okay, let's go to the time of the year Lien was arrested, within two days in either direction. A three-year-old Syrian kid washed up on a beach in Turkey, having drowned when his family tried to get to Europe after they were denied asylum in Canada. Al-Shabaab killed 70 African Union peacekeepers in a raid on their base in Somalia. The president of Guatemala resigned amid a massive corruption scandal. And a judge in Baltimore ordered charges to go forward against six police officers in the death of a prisoner.

    But instead we're talking about a washed-up actress who played a Mary Sue space pixie on a badly written TV show two decades ago. :confused:

    Well, excuse me for delivering a reality check to Mr. TMZ up there, but my reaction is still, why should I give a damn about Jennifer Lien's criminal record?

    I don't come to the STO forums to talk about any of that stuff - Not the place for it.

    As a Trek alum, discussion of former actors is completely appropriate. Whether you give a TRIBBLE about it, flying or otherwise, is irrelevant. The only reason it's making news at all is the shocking transformation from what we saw 20 years ago to that mugshot.

    Frankly I was shocked when I realized it's really been that long since Voyager first went on the air! :o

    Then you've missed the point of Star Trek. It's not just pewpew and technobabble. A major component of the franchise's original concept was to comment on real-life social issues, issues that Gene Roddenberry did not feel could be properly addressed in a crime procedural or Western. And that's a tenet of the franchise that ran from its first incarnation to its last: TNG at its best showed us what we could be if we worked to improve ourselves; DS9 dared to show a world that was not perfect where not everybody was truly hero or villain, the pitfalls and troubles faced by a new government, and the choices we make at when things are at their most bleak; and ENT remarked on current events such as 9/11 and explored racial prejudice and HIV. Even VOY managed it on occasion, like using the Voth to lampoon creationists.

    So caring more about TMZ celebrity stupidity than about things in the world that actually matter just cheapens the franchise and shows you didn't get it.

    I have a very low opinion of people who think celebrities making asses of themselves in public is at all newsworthy unless it impinges on things that make a tangible difference, such as Donald Trump and Ben Carson in the GOP primary campaign. Here's the difference between that and Jennifer Lien: one of those two Islamophobes could be our next president. That matters. Lien acting like trailer trash doesn't.

    People act like idiots all the time, so why is it somehow worthy of note because this person's name was attached to a TV show?

    Of course the real question there is whether it IS a phobia. :p *points at ISIL and Iran*

    Also.... the Voth are more a dig at dogma than religion. Especially since they claim their dogma is rooted in science.

    I don't think it's a bad point for discussion on the current state of a Star Trek actress on a forum for a Star Trek game, especially with a lot of previous talent being hired to perform in the game, though there's nothing wrong with indicating that it's not noteworthy in your opinion, it's less right to use poor language or denigrate people for wishing to discuss it.
