Yillara Skye 1 Posted March 28, 2003 Thanks, everyone! This has been SO much FUN! I don't believe I have talked so much to so many different people in my life, well, at least about Trek! Here you don't have to keep your mouth closed if you like Trek in any way, shape or form! At my schools (Elementary through high school) if you said Star and Trek in the same sentence you ran the risk of being tossed in a dumpster or locked in a closet!(Those kids were cruel!)

Congradulations. It will not be long before you become Captain. Hee hee Ahhhhh, that is just awful. You got picked on for talking Trek. Being tossed in a dumpster or locked on a closet sucks *buttocks*. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsbs 0 Posted March 28, 2003 I luckily never got picked on - people just rolled their eyes at me, oe me a geek. They didn't really care. Here, it's all good, though! Conradulations once again. What's gonna happen when you guys run out of ranks to be promoted to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Takara_Soong 4 Posted March 28, 2003 Picard was perfectly happy to be a Captain forever. I think we could do that too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsbs 0 Posted March 28, 2003 I wonder if Data was perfectly happy to be lietenant commander forever?? (grrrrrrrrrrrr). Sorry. Anyways, captain sure seems like one of the most interesting starfleet jobs. What do admirals really do except go insane? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyways, captain sure seems like one of the most interesting starfleet jobs. What do admirals really do except go insane? O-K admirals going insane . . . .uh-oh after captain is ... No wait somebody already has called us Soong Sisters psycho before(on the ST.com board) so it is nothing new to us :lol: ! As for Data being happy being Lt. Commander permanently, I don't know, he never ever complained about the rank(at least from what we saw on TV and film). But, he SURE DESERVED to be promoted(grrrr :lol: ..)!

Takara_Soong 4 Posted March 29, 2003 Don't worry. Captain is as high as we can go. Maybe they'll assign ships to us when we get there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsbs 0 Posted March 29, 2003 Oh, I know he never complained - maybe he didn't mind. But I mind. Very much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yillara Skye 1 Posted March 29, 2003 I think all of us Soongs mind very much. And as for assigned ships when we make Captain, that sounds interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Data 0 Posted March 29, 2003 I guess this Data has to post more. I seem to be stuck at Lieut. Maybe someday I will burst out with a whole bunch of posts. I just would rather read what everyboday else has to say. I got to get inspired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsbs 0 Posted March 29, 2003 What does rank matter anyways? We're all here to enjoy the show and share our thoughts and feelings. As long as you're having fun, Data. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yillara Skye 1 Posted March 29, 2003 I agree. Data, that is mainly how dsbs, soong_girl and I got promoted so quickly. We participated in the games, when we were not chatting amongst ourselves, that is! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VaBeachGuy 12 Posted March 29, 2003 Yes, the games are a lot of fun. Though I've been mainly only in the Word Chain game. As for the Ranks, it's just a fun way of keeping the Star Trek Theme through and through. We have many users that post sparingly but read most, if not all of the postings. So post when you get the notion, but above all else enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And now I am a College Senior, and have plenty of people here that love Trek as much as I do, that I can talk to! Especially my Sisters, we found each other on ST.com when we all were posting about our favorite Starfleet Officer!! And I even used to talk to a couple of my students about Trek, they thought they were the only people in the school that liked it, and I let them know that they were never alone!! And we had a ball! (At the time, I was 19, and they were 8 and 9) So I am no longer afraid to speak up about Star Trek! No, I never did the uniform thing or Vulcan hand signals or anything, like you I comment and watch. Well, there is the fact that the new competitive leotard for my girls will look sorta like a Starfleet Uniform (the GIRLS picked it , and I liked it so I agreed to order it for them!!) To let everyone know, I never was PERSONALLY dumped in a dumpster or locked in a closet. . .but, I was witness to a classmate get pushed in the closet for liking Deanna :lol: , and a boy get tossed in a trash can for loving Punky Brewster !! (And I have no idea where the teacher's attention, no....BRAINS were when these things occured :lol: !!!) I luckily survived ridicule, well at least they never NOTCIED that I had TNG novels in my hand when I wasn't doing all my assignments up to 3 weeks ahead of the due date! Or, the fact that during my Junior year of H.S. I wore my First Contact T-shirt , quite proudly I might add! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsbs 0 Posted March 30, 2003 I've never hidden it. I have great friends, and they all knew that they can't change me. I'm really lucky, actually - the stories I've heard. But there's no point in hiding it, I think. And if someone stops being friends with you for a reason like that then (as many have said) what sort of a friend are they?
