Yeah, I'm kind of gathering that from the posts I'm reading so far. But I guess I'm just worried that I won't get to enjoy it unless I'm lvl-whatever or have unlocked certain things. To be honest, I'm not a gamer at all and I don't really know how MMORPGs work, I just know I'm a huge Trekkie and I love that STO exists and…

Oh. Okay. But does this mean it'll be unavailable to people like myself who haven't gotten through much of the game yet? I haven't gotten very far into the game but I'm always down for more to explore!
-
Wait so is this actually out yet or what? Sector space still looks the same to me and I can't find Betazed yet. When is this being implemented? I think I'm missing something here.

Carl Sagan's ship in Cosmos. I mean come on, it can go anywhere, any time!

Are you really naive enough to believe that all information presented on Wikipedia is false? You do realize the site is heavily moderated, anything that doesn't have a verifiable source is readily pointed out, and that many pages are locked for exactly the reason of impartiality and lack of tampering? And maybe you should…

Definitely Arthur C. Clarke's "Space Odyssey" series. Far superior to the movies in every conceivable way.
-
Let's get drunk and fight! :D I'm part Irish, I guess. Today, everybody's Irish!
-
This is what I figure too. I mean, how many times has the ship been banged up beyond recognition and slapped back together? They can't have been using spit and polish this whole time! Surely, they must keep a reserve of energy just big enough to maintain the ship and replace vital components when they break, otherwise…
-
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't most Starfleet ships have some form of antimatter production facility on board? If so, that can be used to make minute amounts for torpedoes. I mean as significant as warp drive is, you gotta keep yourself protected in unknown space!
-
As hilarious as this video is, I figure it's quite possible that after they started working on their energy problems, they probably had enough power to replicate the parts for a few more as needed.

I should also mention that punk song from ST:IV. It was actually recorded on set, quickly and cheaply, by a couple of the crew members. Gotta love how they didn't just get a pre-recorded tune for it, but made one themselves for fun :D
-
I'd assume that their reproductive cycle and death cycle are similar to that of Earth jellyfish. Effectively biologically immortal, but by the way they reproduce rather than any kind of life-lengthening system. As in they probably all share DNA on some level, but not things like all personal experiences and memories.…

You're only on season three! When you get to the end, you'll see why he's one of my favourite Trek characters of all time. Everything about Garak is just... interesting. His character is so beyond the normal idea of Trek characters...

Echoes of the Void, by Harry Kim. I've learned the melody and incorporated it into things I've written subtly.
-
That's not what the folks at DS9 were telling me. Oh well. Either way, I got a gorgeous shot :D
-
The Tamarians Darmok and Jalad at Tenagra!

I already got a prize and all for my first one but this seemed like an appropriate thread to post the "almost-wallpapers" I snapped. I call them that because if you want to use them as wallpapers, you either deal with the stretching or crop it yourself. :P My old ship hanging out by the Bajoran wormhole. I had a little…

I even edited a layover of the real local stellar neighbourhood from a scientific site over said Star Charts: http://i.imgur.com/ySzzsIU.jpg :D

I just made this thread like a week ago. And I had, in fact, pointed out a lot of similarities. Sure, for all they got wrong, I'm surprised and pleased by what they got right. Sure, it's not EPIC LEVELS of similarity, but the fact that they actually did SOME homework impresses the TRIBBLE out of me.

XD No words... XD ...should've sent... a poet... XD :D

Dammit man, he's a doctor, not a Ferengi!

I'm a simple double-double kind of guy. I'm writing a pretty interesting fanfic right now involving a temporally-displaced 21st-century guy as a Starfleet officer, and the only "Gary Stu" trait I wrote into him is his penchant for ordering a double-double from the replicator... in a cardboard cup with a plastic lid. Also…

I'm not part of the event. Probably still too new to the game to join. I don't know if my little Olympic-class could handle the Mirror Universe yet! As for my boredom with the game, it kind of stems from that. I'm trying to play as freely (I'm too brokeass for Zen) as I can, and I'm making very little progress with in-game…

Pretty happy with the well-needed break from STO. Was getting kind of bored of it for a bit. And man, I feel for the devs. So much bitterness around maintenance time. I wonder how STO would have worked out if they didn't do their jobs.
-
Does it have constant oil leaks and brake problems? And do the specs say Warp 9 but really come up to Warp-I-Might-As-Well-Have-Taken-The-Bus?
-
Archer. Surprisingly a good fit! I do like to do things a little "differently" from the grain and write my own book, as it were. And apparently, as exemplified by the Alien thread (I'm still not sorry for comparing JJ and Scott, they both make visually gorgeous works, regardless of other details!), I seem to have a…

I've mentioned a few times already here that I have a naming convention for my ships concerning Northern Ontario communities, specifically those in my hometown, the Sudbury area. Currently, I'm in the U.S.S. Walden. I so named it because as an Olympic-class ship, they have a reputation as being a medical transport, a sort…

Not available in Canada, but tell me they at least jam some Sto-Vo-Kor now and then. I gotta get started on my Trek-themed prog metal project, Terok Nor.

And yet had both of those movies been released this year instead, reactions surely would be different than they initially were in the 80s. Society changed since Trek's last real spurt of popularity.
