Stephen of Borg 2 Posted May 11, 2005 I can see the ups and downs, but would you want to be Q if you could be? Please explain why or why not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kor37 9 Posted May 11, 2005 Sure. I've always wanted to be omnipotent! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sea trooper 0 Posted May 11, 2005 I always want physic-altering powers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt 0 Posted May 11, 2005 Definately, can't go far wrong with omnipotence. Lack of a challenge in life but the powers make up for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
APW 0 Posted July 12, 2005 It would be fun for awhile,I suppose....but I think several episodes of TNG and Voyager showed that the downsides of immortality and near unlimited power outweighed the upside...at least for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BakulaBabe 2 Posted July 12, 2005 No way would I want to be Q! Having powers like that would be too tempting, and I'd probably end up doing things that would make me feel - and look - like an idiot, like Riker did. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Sure, but I wouldn't be obnoxious like our favorite "Q". :wink2: Â I'm sure I would make some bad decisions, but overall I'd just try to make lives better with my abilities. *shrug* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Picard 12 Posted July 12, 2005 I'd like to be a Q, too... I mean, to annoy Jean-Luc must be sooo much fun  I'd perhaps feel tempted to do not only good things, though.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt_Picard 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Yes... free food! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eratosthenes 0 Posted July 13, 2005 Yes... free food! 338998[/snapback] Â Lol. Â Â I say yes. I've always thought that it would be great to be omniscient, omnipotent and everything else. Another reason, though, is that I have a HUGE problem with death...and being a Q would, ahem, remedy that issue. (although I have the predisposition about death, I would give it away in a heartbeat to save any of my siblings if the need were to arise.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tina 0 Posted July 13, 2005 I would eradicate you all  BWAHAHAHAHAHA  and have casual Fridays Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Validus 0 Posted July 16, 2005 I'd love to be a Q, except that I would worry about boredom (as was explored in Voyager). I can't even begin to fathom living for endless billions and billions of years. I guess after awhile you'd get so bored that messing with other civilizations would be your only outlet.

MrPsychic 1 Posted January 13, 2008 I'm thinking eff yeah...Riker must've been on CRACK when he passed that up. It was season one, they were all pretty much on crack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhostofMajorHayes 10 Posted January 13, 2008 No. Imo, a pointless character/species that only served as an excuse to slough off on writing creative eps later on in TNG and VOY. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Warrior_Princess 0 Posted May 1, 2008 No, I would not want to be a Q. Â I have to agree with Ghost of Major Hayes here and say that they were only a pointless species. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaboGirl 7 Posted July 17, 2008 Sure I would! Â You could always walk among the commoners if you like as we saw with Kevin Uxbridge as a Douwd, an immortal being with vast powers in 3rd season Next Gen Episode The Survivors. Â "I saw her broken body... I went insane. My hatred exploded. And in an instant of grief... I destroyed the Husnock!'" Â "No, no, no, no, you don't understand the scope of my crime. I didn't kill just one Husnock, or a hundred, or a thousand. I killed them all. All Husnock, everywhere." Â - Kevin Uxbridge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
