Wishfire 2 Posted August 2, 2005 (edited) So, how did you find this website? I can't remember how I found it... I think I did a Google search for something Trek-related and saw a link to here and decided to check it out. It was close to a year ago... EDIT: I'm pretty sure there was a topic like this before, but I can't find it... Edited August 2, 2005 by wishfire Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dark Reality 0 Posted August 2, 2005 (edited) My message board runs on the same platform software as this. It looks a lot different (as this board has a very custom skin) but is the same software (Invision Power Board). Anyway, I saw VaBeachGuy at their company forums (where I also post) and he had a link to this site in his signature. I've been a Star Trek fan since I was a kid, but never thought to join an ST forum. I checked it out and I like what I see. Trek fans aren't always common on forums, so it's nice to have a forum dedicated to Trek. Edited August 2, 2005 by Dark Reality Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoveMalePecs1 0 Posted August 2, 2005 (edited) Well someone at st.com who was in the st.com chatroom with us gave me this website since the st chatroom was being changed into more of a celebrity/book chatroom so I moved here and began my big postings along with the SN I had wanted in the first place I check in st.com every now and again.

KIMIMELA 1 Posted August 2, 2005 Well, 2 years ago I used to post on StarTrek.com a lot. I noticed this link in someones signiture but I didn't register here for about a year. The ST.com boards got really boring because there was loads of non- trek fans slagging us off so I left and came here after. I wasn't so sure at first, this place seemed to big and proffessional, but I'm glad I made the right choice. Thank you, VBG! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trekz 7 Posted August 3, 2005 I used to frequent the ST.com chat room, and was given this link, and I can't remember who gave it to me either, when that chat room was closed down/remodeled. I came here and used chat here for over a year until I started posting. This is a great site imo, but I still wish there were more chatters who visited on a more frequent basis (He says for the millionth time ). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mj 7 Posted August 5, 2005 EDIT: I'm pretty sure there was a topic like this before, but I can't find it... 345071[/snapback] It has, but different people are answering and different people are on the board now, so it is still valid to ask. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yillara Skye 1 Posted August 10, 2005 (edited) I had just started posting over at ST.com 2 1/2 years ago, alongside a couple other people who migrated over here at about the same time. At ST.com, I stayed mainly on threads concerning TNG, and primarily any concerning Data (LOL, Go figure... I join here and I post most in Off Topic, Games, New Members and Science & Technology). I had found the link someone posted (either VBG or AE, I do not remember who since it has been so long), and had checked the site out. Another poster had suggested signing up here, and I followed suit (since I already was liking what I saw here). VBG and AE, I will always be grateful you posted the link at ST.com. Since that place had gotten really bad with the spammers at that point and time. And thanks to Takara, who had once suggested actually signing up here during a thread at ST.com. So, I joined.. and made friends quite quickly here (Like Data, who also helped me when I first joined here. I had no idea what was going on with the site, and he explained that it was a server update and the board would be back online soon. He also helped me with a few of the other features on the boards Since I had only posted at ST.com prior to joining here. And I honestly had no idea on how some of the features were supposed to work, like the colors and image tags and things like that.). I was at ST.com for less than three weeks, and came here in March '03 and never went back to the ST.com boards(I still check out the main site occasionally). Being at this site has been wonderful :lol: Edited August 10, 2005 by Yillara_Soong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.Picard 12 Posted August 11, 2005 I honestly can't remember, as much as I would love to , I think I found this website while using google for to look for Star Trek message boards, but I am really not sure. All I know is that I've been here for a long time (and I'm not planning on leaving) :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
